  • A party of several characters
  • Turn-based combat
  • Strong, story-driven narrative

A point-and-click adventure in a grim near-future where you guide a trio of small-time crooks through puzzles and turn-based fights against a ruthless megacorporation. A comic-book look and dry humor shape the story.

Fallout 2

Sci-fi setting

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.

Wild Arms 2

Strong, story-driven narrative

A classic PlayStation JRPG set in Filgaia, blending Old West, steampunk and fantasy. Turn-based battles with Guardian summons and puzzle-heavy dungeons built around each hero's tools define the experience.

Deltarune

Lots of humour

Toby Fox's follow-up to Undertale mixes menu-based party battles with bullet-hell dodging, and enemies can be spared instead of fought. A charming, funny cast, a standout soundtrack and an unsettling meta-mystery sit beneath its colorful surface.

Ticket to Earth

Sci-fi setting

Ticket to Earth blends turn-based tactical combat with tile-matching puzzles, where matching tiles on a grid powers your attacks. It wraps this in a sci-fi story about four heroes defending exploited colonists.

Star Vikings Forever

Lots of humour

You assemble a crew of space-faring Vikings and solve tactical puzzle battles against invading space snails. It's a humorous, strategic puzzle RPG with a nearly endless stream of challenges.
