Mages of Mystralia is an action RPG developed by Borealys Games. The game takes place in a fantasy world where people with magical powers are feared and despised by those without them.

We will explore the game's world, do various side and main quests, solve puzzles and riddles, and fight with the encountered enemies. Combat is dynamic and takes place in real time, so we will have to rely on our reflexes very often. As we play, we will collect special runes that unlock specific magical effects. We can freely combine them in order to create new spells. At the same time, we level up our hero. The game and its entire universe are the brainchild of Ed Greenwood who created Forgotten Realms, Dungeons & Dungeons' most popular world.

Overload is a 6DoF (Six Degrees of Freedom) first-person shooter developed by Revival Productions.

We will also face hordes of enemies and free the hibernated hostages. We will use a wide array of weapons during our adventures. Each element of our arsenal can be modified to increase its power. We will have to use a more tactical approach when fighting bosses. The game comes with an editor that allows us to create our own maps and missions.

A city builder strategy game created by Mindillusion. The player is placed in charge of an early-medieval settlement. One's prime goal here is to maintain an appropriate balance between expanding the village and being able to survive in a hostile environment. Thus, apart from utilizing more and more space, constructing new buildings and upgrading the existing ones, the player has to give proper winter clothing to their subordinates and deliver them with balanced meals. The last can be achieved through growing different kinds of plants, breeding animals and storing food; making light of these aspects can result in dangerous epidemics. Apart from that, the player's village can fall victim to attacks of predators and various natural disasters, such as tornadoes or storms, which can cause a fire. All such events affect the spirit of the villagers, which is reflected by a special meter - unhappy workers become less productive. Life is Feudal: Forest Village offers a three-dimensional environment. Interestingly, the player can switch between an isometric view and first-person perspectives (as one of his subjects).

Brother against Brother: The Drawing of the Sword
November 9, 2020, End of Life
Strategy, Multiplayer, PBeM, Singleplayer, Turn-based, American Civil War, 19th Century.
A turn-based strategy game developed by Western Civilization Software. As the title suggests, the game focuses on the American Civil War, during which brothers often had to turn against each other when the Confederate States declared war upon the northern states, devastating the United States of America. The action of this game is set at the initial stages of the American Civil War, allowing players to participate in the events such as the First Battle of Bull Run, the Battle of Wilson's Creek (1861), the Battle of Mill Springs and the Battle of Williamsburg (1862). Apart from the large campaigns, the game delivers a number of smaller scenarios, including the hypothetical ones presenting an alternative course of events. Battles take place on huge maps covering the area of 50 square miles, divided into 75-yard hexagons. A single turn corresponds to 24 hours in real time. Brother against Brother: The Drawing of the Sword builds on realism – regiments have their unique skills that made them famous during the Civil War. Apart from the units’ stats and player’s tactical decisions, the battle is affected by the amount of supplies, changing weather conditions, and the smoke suspended over the battlefield.
Star Ruler 2
November 9, 2020, End of Life
Strategy, 4X, Internet, Space, LAN, Multiplayer, RTS, Science Fiction, Singleplayer.
A continuation of a 4X space strategy game created by the developers of the original title. Star Ruler 2 takes place in a distant future, where humanity developed a technology that allowed long-distance interstellar travel, and made a contact with other sentient species. The game has no story per se – developments in the game are shaped by our decisions and actions made by the AI. Before the game starts we have to select one of the few races that we can turn into an intergalactic power. The players can, in real time, colonize planets, get their resources and develop cities and technology centers. It is also important to research new technologies and form alliances with other empires. A few thousand units can participate in battles at the same and the key to success lies in selecting the right ships, created by us thanks to the ships builder, in which we can choose each part of the vessel. In addition to the single player mode, Star Ruler 2 also offers a multiplayer.

Lara Croft GO
November 9, 2020, End of Life
Adventure, Puzzle Elements, Singleplayer, Turn-based, Isometric View.
A spin-off to the adventures of the beautiful archaeologist Lara Croft, created for mobile platforms users by one of Square Enix’s studios, which also created a mobile game featuring Agent 47. Gameplay combines elements characteristic for the Tomb Raider series – e.g. exploring ruins and tombs filled with traps – with turn-based logic game mechanics borrowed from Hitman GO. The action is presented in isometric view and the player’s goal is to go through various locations by moving on predefined paths, disable traps, and fight enemies. To make matters more difficult, a part of a location is not visible at the beginning, so you need to precisely plan what to do – each inconsiderate move costs a lot. The game features simple hand-drawn graphics and an atmospheric soundtrack.

Strategy, Internet, Remaster/remake, RTS, The Middle Ages, Isometric View.
The second expansion to Age of Empires II: HD Edition from 2013. Unlike the first DLC, which was a commercial remake of a fan-made modification to the original Age of Empires II, The African Kingdoms was built from ground up entirely by the developers of the original game, Hidden Path Entertainment. The expansion takes us once more to the Middle Ages, however, this time we travel to a completely different region of the world – the African continent. There, you take command of such nations as the Berbers, Malians, and Ethiopians, as well as the Portuguese. Each nation has its unique architecture, technology, and units (e.g. camel archers). In terms of gameplay mechanics, the DLC introduces an innovation - varied surfaces. Your choice to construct buildings on rock, sand, or other terrain will now affect the construction's stability.

RPG, Fantasy, Classic RPG, Singleplayer, Isometric View.
The first expansion for Pillars of Eternity, the bestselling cRPG created by Obsidian Entertainment. The action takes place in an abandoned dwarven stronghold, Durgan, where, as rumor has it, one can find tons of incredibly valuable artifacts.

The player’s party accepted the challenge and ventures into the stronghold with a mission of uncovering the secret of the legendary durgan steel. The game features typical cRPG gameplay premises: exploration, questing, character progression. In addition to the main storyline, we can also complete a number of various side quests. Moreover, the expansion introduces new items, skills, additional companions that can be recruited into our party, as well as increased character level capacity.
