Duskers

Runs that play out differently every time

You guide a squad of drones through derelict spaceships using a command line, relying only on sensors and limited camera feeds. Its roguelike survival structure and oppressive atmosphere keep tension high.

FTL: Faster Than Light

Runs that play out differently every time

You captain a starship on the run, rerouting power, directing crew and making tough calls in pausable real-time battles. Every run is procedurally generated, brutally tense and often ends in glorious failure.

X-COM: Terror From the Deep

Tactical depth

The notoriously punishing sequel to UFO Defense moves the alien war to the ocean depths, combining base building and research with turn-based squad missions against Lovecraftian sea horrors. Its creepy atmosphere and brutal difficulty made it a cult classic.

Shardpunk

Tactical depth

A turn-based tactics game set in a grim steampunk world overrun by rats, blending XCOM-style squad combat with Darkest Dungeon-like stress and resource pressure. You lead a small squad through dangerous missions where every decision counts.

Quasimorph

Runs that play out differently every time

A punishing turn-based extraction roguelike set in grim sci-fi horror: you send clone after clone of a mercenary into infested ships to loot and survive, while managing your own vessel between runs.

X-COM: UFO Defense

Tactical depth

The legendary tactics classic pairs tense turn-based squad missions against aliens with global base building, research and tight budget management. Soldiers die permanently, and every strategic decision can save or doom humanity.

Stirring Abyss

Dread and tension

An indie squad-based tactics game where you lead a team through a Lovecraft-inspired undersea world, managing resources, sanity and tough decisions. Its mix of squad tactics, RPG elements and cosmic horror creates an oppressive atmosphere.

Crying Suns

Runs that play out differently every time

As a fleet commander you cross a collapsed star empire in a roguelite built around tactical, pausable space battles. Each run reveals more of a story in the vein of Dune and Foundation.
