Alien: Isolation - The Trigger is the fifth and final DLC for the science fiction horror game Alien: Isolation developed by Creative Assembly. This DLC is available for the game's season pass owners, but can also be bought separately. The expansion takes place prior to the events of the main game. We play as Ricardo, who, along with his supervisor, tries to remove a xenomorph from Sewastopol's deck. The Trigger does not introduce any new game modes or features and focuses on the already known Survivor mode. We explore three previously inaccessible areas of Sewastopol, with the disabled robot storage being one of them. All the time we have to hide from the murderous alien creature and the less, but still, dangerous androids. The entire expansion is a nice challenge for those who like survival because the new maps are filled with narrow corridors where it's difficult to find a hideout. The Alien that hunts us moves fast and is extremely responsive to any kind of activity or action we take.

Combat can take place in two modes: a dynamic one that puts emphasis on action or a tactical one which lets us queue orders. The key to success is to skillfully use the abilities of the protagonist and his companions as well as to put the masks to good use by casting various spells. The title is characterized by an original visual style that combines Japanese and French comic style with inspirations drawn from Venetian atmosphere and its carnivals.

Apart from many adventures, conversations with non-player characters, and battles fought with randomly spawned opponents, the game could not miss out on a character progression system. Along with the story progression your heroes are gaining progressively better weapons and armor, as well as and more powerful spells. When it comes to audiovisuals, the games in the Dragon Fantasy series offer old-school graphics and retro sounds, resembling 8- and 16-bit titles.

Divides its gameplay into two parts - the first one being the process of developing the titular forts, which are later on used by players to face the guardians of the mysterious Temple in the Clouds and reach its top floor. What distinguishes this game from other ‘Clash of Clans’ clones is the implementation of the side perspective accompanied by the 2D visuals. Forts can be developed upwards with stairs, bridges, and some additional strategic infrastructure including defensive structures, traps, and watchtowers. The fort development process goes in line with training an army and gathering resources one can use during battles. When in combat, the player is tasked with razing enemy forts to the ground, both the AI-controlled and those belonging to other players. Moreover, one can call upon the mercenaries - who feature some special abilities themselves - to help the player's army.

A mobile science fiction RPG by Gilded Skull Games. The plot of Galactic Keep: Dice Battles is set in times when an advanced alien race kidnaps humans and puts them in their factories and research facilities on a distant planet. Soon, a rebellion occurs, and the result is that humanity regains its freedom and destroys most of its captors’ cities. After three hundred years, having integrated with the other species, people start to visit various worlds, although the majority still focuses on living on their home planet called Aarath. Mechanics-wise, the game is based on rolling dice and the formula resembles a typical board game. While playing, we can assume the role of heroes of various races and classes, and the gameplay revolves around exploring the universe and performing various missions, over the course of which we acquire items, talk to encountered non-player characters, solve puzzles, and fight opponents.

The story campaign consists of 58 missions, during which you have to capture the enemy buildings and build your own, enlarge your army, and claim as much land as you can. The mechanics are similar to those from the first installment of the series, although the game features some new elements, such as e.g. new buildings and abilities, interactive objects, etc. Apart from the single-player mode, Mushroom Wars: Space! also features a multiplayer mode for 4 players. The visuals are simple, colorful and cartoonish, which only underscores the humorous character of the game. Both the characters and the scenery are displayed in 2D.
