Encased

Turn-based combat

An isometric sci-fi post-apocalyptic CRPG in the spirit of the late-90s classics, set in a sealed-off zone full of artifacts from a vanished civilization. Turn-based combat, character building and meaningful decisions define the experience.

Shin Megami Tensei

A party of several characters

The original entry of the series sends you through a ruined Tokyo in first-person dungeons, where you recruit and fuse demons. Its bleak tale of Law versus Chaos forces moral choices, and the battles are punishing.

Atom RPG

Open world

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.

Fallout 2

Open world

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.

Shin Megami Tensei II

A party of several characters

A grim sequel where you recruit and fuse demon allies while picking a side among Law, Chaos and Neutrality in a religiously ruled dystopia. Punishing, uncompromising, and built on moral choices that decide the ending.

Wizardry 8

Challenging difficulty

A classic party-based RPG blending fantasy with science fiction: you assemble a group from many races and classes and explore a large world with demanding tactical combat (phase-based or real-time with pause) and very deep character development.

Fallout: A Post Nuclear Role Playing Game

Open world

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.

UnderRail

Challenging difficulty

A punishing old-school isometric RPG set in a post-apocalyptic underground subway world, built around turn-based tactical combat and highly flexible character builds. Exploration, crafting and meaningful choices shape your survival.
