Griftlands

Sci-fi setting

A deckbuilding roguelike set in a shabby sci-fi world where you both fight and negotiate using separate card decks. Three distinct character campaigns and meaningful choices make each run play out differently.

West of Loathing

Lots of humour

A stick-figure Wild West packed with slapstick and absurd gags, where simple turn-based fights and creative quest solutions carry you through a quirky desert world. Humor fills nearly every dialogue and choice.

Fallout 2

Lots to discover

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.

Celestial Return

Sci-fi setting

A story-driven sci-fi RPG where dice rolls decide fights, negotiations and survival in a crumbling city. Cosmic horror and corrupt megacorps set the bleak backdrop.

Fallout: A Post Nuclear Role Playing Game

Lots to discover

The classic that defined the post-nuclear RPG: as a Vault 13 dweller you roam irradiated California, solving problems through talk, stealth or turn-based combat while your choices reshape towns and factions. Dark humor meets a bleak, open wasteland under the pressure of a ticking clock.

Torment: Tides of Numenera

Sci-fi setting

A text-heavy RPG set in the strange far-future world of Numenera, serving as a spiritual successor to Planescape: Torment and probing questions of identity and mortality. Conversations and choices matter far more than the rare turn-based combat.

Midnight Protocol

Sci-fi setting

A cyberpunk hacking RPG where you type commands to breach servers, outwit security and steal data. Turn-based tactics meet an atmospheric narrative with meaningful choices and a driving synthwave soundtrack.

Atom RPG

Lots to discover

A loving Fallout-style successor set in a Soviet wasteland, with turn-based combat, open-ended character builds and plenty of meaningful choices, all laced with dark humor and Eastern European flavor.

Space Rangers

Sci-fi setting

A Russian hybrid space game where you freely roam a living galaxy as a Ranger, trading, fighting and taking on quests while resisting the Klissan invasion. Turn-based battles, text quests and tongue-in-cheek humor set it apart.
