About One-inch Tactics
One‑inch Tactics offers a turn‑based strategy experience that blends a simple interface with deep tactical considerations. Developed by KOGADO STUDIO, the game presents an interactive 3D playing field that feels like a multidimensional board, encouraging thoughtful planning.
Players guide pilots through missions set in mountains, urban zones, fortresses and other locales, taking line of sight, terrain shadows and equipment into account. Each pilot’s distinct strengths and weaknesses make squad composition a central element of success.
01 / THE GUIDE
Interactive 3D Playing Field
The core visual is an interactive 3D field that mimics a tabletop board, providing depth while remaining intuitive. This design supports smooth operation and a relaxed atmosphere.
Because the field is three‑dimensional, players must consider hilltops, cliff shadows and shields when planning moves, turning visual cues into strategic factors.
- Observe terrain elevation early to locate natural defensive positions.
- Rotate the view to verify line of sight before committing units.

Mission Variety and Terrain
Missions cover mountains, urban areas, fortresses and more, each demanding equipment that suits the environment. The variety forces players to adapt tactics to distinct settings.
Terrain influences line of sight and line of fire, so selecting gear that matches the setting can shift the balance in a squad’s favor.
- Match equipment to terrain type for optimal effectiveness.
- Experiment with unit placement to see how terrain alters line of fire.
