Girls Frontline

Girls' Frontline, known as 少女前线 or 女前 in Simplified Chinese, 少女前線 in Traditional Chinese, 소녀전선 in Korean and ドールズフロントライン (Doll's Frontline) or ドルフロ in Japanese due to a trademark dispute, is a turn-based strategy game with gacha and resources management components for Apple and Android smartphones developed by Sunborn in partnership with Vanguard Sound, Criware and Live2D. The game was made available in Mainland China on May 20, 2016, in Taiwan and Hong Kong on January 18, 2017, in South Korea on June 30, 2017, in a worldwide English version on May 8, 2018, and in Japan on July 1st, 2018.

 The main concept of Girls' Frontline is to have the players collect Tactical Dolls, feminine androids named after the real-world firearm they are using, depicted and voiced by an expansive cast of artists and actors. T-Dolls are upgraded and used to fight against computer-controlled enemies. The game supports regular limited time events, sometimes in collaboration with other franchises, and paid-for in-game bonuses, and has added numerous features over its lifetime, creating a complex set of unit statistics and management features.

 Despite numerous problems when it first reached the market and some subsequent controversies, Girls' Frontline has since become a commercial success for Sunborn and has enabled the developer to produce a remake of its previous game, Codename: Bakery Girl, and three games derivative from Girls' Frontline:

Girls' Frontline 2: Exile, a sequel set 8 years after the the start of Girls' Frontline.
Girls' Frontline: Project Neural Cloud, a prequel set some time before the current Girls' Frontline Timeline.
Girls' Frontline: Glitch Land a fanmade game using some assets and characters from Girls' Frontline.

The game has assembled a large and active community in several languages, sharing creative works and strategies.
