  • Tactical depth
  • Fantasy setting
  • Distinctive, stylised art style

A real-time strategy game set in a feudal Japan-inspired fantasy world with a streamlined economy of rice and water instead of heavy base building. Peasants are trained into specialized warriors and powerful heroes, while Kenji's campaign follows clan rivalry and reclaiming a throne.

Populous: The Beginning

Challenging difficulty

A real-time strategy game where you play a shaman who gathers followers and uses spells, terraforming and armies to defeat rival tribes across strange planets. Blending god-game ideas with direct control of a hero unit, it was a bold departure from earlier Populous games.

Armies of Exigo

Challenging difficulty

A fantasy real-time strategy game where you manage bases and armies on both the surface and an underground layer. Attacks can come from unexpected directions, adding extra tactical depth.

Age of Mythology

Co-op or multiplayer

A classic real-time strategy game where you lead Greek, Egyptian or Norse civilizations, calling on god powers, heroes and mythical beasts like cyclopes and minotaurs. Its globe-trotting campaign following Arkantos and deep competitive multiplayer made it a genre favorite.

ParaWorld

Lavish presentation

A real-time strategy game set in a parallel world where dinosaurs and diverse human tribes coexist. It combines classic base building and resource gathering with land and sea battles, using dinosaurs as units.

The Lord of the Rings: The Battle for Middle-earth II

Co-op or multiplayer

A real-time strategy game set in Middle-earth, featuring base building, powerful hero units and large battles between Elves, Dwarves, Orcs and Goblins in the North. It adds a turn-based War of the Ring conquest mode on a map of Middle-earth and popular multiplayer skirmishes.

Minecraft: Legends

Lavish presentation

An action-flavored real-time strategy spin-off set in the Minecraft universe: you rally allied mobs, build defenses and push back the piglin invasion across the Overworld, solo or in co-op.

Total War: Warhammer III

Lavish presentation

The finale of the Warhammer trilogy combines turn-based campaign strategy on a huge map with massive real-time battles. A wide roster of distinct factions, heroes and daemonic armies in the Realm of Chaos keeps every campaign feeling different.

Kingdom Two Crowns

Lavish presentation

As a mounted monarch you gather coins, recruit subjects and grow a realm that you must defend each night from greedy creatures. This minimalist side-scroller pairs moody pixel art with a calm yet demanding build-and-defend rhythm.

Albion Online

Co-op or multiplayer

A sandbox MMORPG where gear defines your abilities, the whole economy is player-crafted, and full-loot PvP zones make every trip risky. Guilds, crafting and territory fights matter far more than any story.
