Void War

A party of several characters

You command an ancient starship across a dying empire, fending off cultists, pirates and imperial soldiers while upgrading your vessel with found artifacts. It is a pixel-art roguelike with a grim science-fiction mood.

Into the Breach

Tactical depth

Compact turn-based tactics where three mechs defend cities from giant kaiju-like aliens. Every enemy attack is telegraphed in advance, so each turn plays like a tightly designed chess puzzle with roguelike runs and time-travel resets.

Crying Suns

Choices with consequences

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.

Lobotomy Corporation

Economy and management

You run a secret company that studies dangerous anomalies, balancing employees, energy and containment. Every mistake triggers a chain of disasters, while a deep and unsettling story unfolds behind the grim corporate routine.

Battlevoid: Harbinger

Tactical depth

You lead a fleet as a young commander through unknown star systems, never sure what awaits after each hyperspace jump. A star-map strategy layer, roguelike runs and tactical space battles make for a demanding voyage.

Hyperspace Delivery Service

Economy and management

A space management adventure where you name your crew and ship, juggle supplies, trade and fight off pirates and rogue robots to get your cargo to its destination.

Duskers

Tactical depth

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.

Caves of Qud

Deep systems to master

An extremely deep science-fantasy roguelike where you explore a vast, part handcrafted, part procedural world turn by turn. Dozens of mutations and interlocking simulation systems enable unusual builds and emergent stories where you can do almost anything.
