Fallout 2

Dialogue and role-playing

A classic isometric RPG set in nuclear-ravaged California, celebrated for its sweeping freedom of choice, dark humor and morally grey factions. Nearly every problem can be solved through combat, persuasion, stealth or trickery.

Sunday Gold

Strong, story-driven narrative

A point-and-click adventure in a grim near-future where you guide a trio of small-time crooks through puzzles and turn-based fights against a ruthless megacorporation. A comic-book look and dry humor shape the story.

Deltarune

Dialogue and role-playing

Toby Fox's follow-up to Undertale mixes menu-based party battles with bullet-hell dodging, and enemies can be spared instead of fought. A charming, funny cast, a standout soundtrack and an unsettling meta-mystery sit beneath its colorful surface.

Wild Arms 2

Turn-based combat

A classic PlayStation JRPG set in Filgaia, blending Old West, steampunk and fantasy. Turn-based battles with Guardian summons and puzzle-heavy dungeons built around each hero's tools define the experience.

Ticket to Earth

Turn-based combat

Ticket to Earth blends turn-based tactical combat with tile-matching puzzles, where matching tiles on a grid powers your attacks. It wraps this in a sci-fi story about four heroes defending exploited colonists.
