Realms of Arkania III: Shadows over Riva

Turn-based combat

You lead a party of adventurers through the seaside city of Riva, where an evil force has corrupted its leaders and monsters stir beneath the streets. Turn-based party combat, deep character building and adjustable difficulty make it a classic DSA-style CRPG with sewers, dungeons and underwater areas to explore.

Stranger of Sword City

Strong character progression

A first-person dungeon crawler with turn-based combat where you build a party of up to six custom heroes by choosing race, class and age. Its appeal lies in deep character building and demanding battles against powerful monsters.

Etrian Odyssey III HD

Strong character progression

A classic dungeon crawler where you assemble your own party from twelve classes and delve into the labyrinths of the drowned city of Armoroad, mapping as you go. Turn-based battles, class synergies and sea voyages create strategic depth, and the HD remaster adds difficulty options.

Skald: Against the Black Priory

Turn-based combat

A classic turn-based RPG inspired by Ultima and the Gold Box games, where you lead a party of up to six heroes through a grim, Lovecraftian fantasy world. Retro pixel visuals meet old-school tactical combat and deep character building.

The Temple of Elemental Evil

Turn-based combat

A faithful Dungeons & Dragons 3.5-rules CRPG with deep, demanding turn-based combat. You lead a custom-built party from the village of Hommlet to the notorious Temple of Elemental Evil.

Dark Deity II

Tactical depth

A classic grid-based tactical RPG in the vein of Fire Emblem: you lead a squad of heroes through a war and plan each battle carefully. Unit growth and relationships between characters play a big role.

Etrian Odyssey HD

Strong character progression

A classic dungeon crawler where you assemble a custom party from nine classes and push through the floors of the Yggdrasil Labyrinth. Careful resource management, dangerous enemies and a hands-on approach to mapping define it, and the HD remaster adds difficulty options.
