Turn-based combat

Turn-based combat is a system where players and opponents take alternating turns to perform actions such as attacking, defending, or using items. Each participant has a set amount of time or opportunities to make decisions, allowing strategizing and careful planning. This method emphasizes thoughtful choices over quick reflexes, often seen in role-playing games (RPGs) and classic strategy games. It provides a structured, predictable flow of combat, enabling players to analyze situations, select the best moves, and respond to opponents’ actions without real-time pressure.
