Square Enix’s Antique Carnevale, teased several weeks ago with a unique character trailer, has officially launched. No, you didn’t read that incorrectly – as it turns out, the newest property from the Final Fantasy developer is a free to play, browser-based game available on Yahoo! Games Plus in Japan. Talk about sudden.
Antique Carnevale sees the player functioning as a game master with other characters that can be summoned as pieces in battle. In-app purchases are supported and the actual game combines JRPG and board game elements (namely from Chess and Reversi). Though not officially available on mobiles, it’s possible to access through a web browser on iOS and Android along with PC and Mac.
