Strategy, RPG Elements, Fantasy, Might & Magic, Singleplayer, Turn-based.

The fourth installment in a best-selling series of strategy games initiated in 1995 by New World Computing. The game is set in Jadame - a fantasy world the players can associate with Might & Magic VIII. Six factions were included here and each of those has their own towns, different units and technologies. Each of them also has a dedicated school of magic and can hire characters belonging to one race only (Strongholds are the only exception). The mechanics went through many modifications and simplifications. The creators got rid of recruitment on a weekly basis, modified the combat system, and erased the necessity to have a character within an army - the characters were turned into units that participate directly in combat sequences. This however, brought many restrictions that made the experience both more difficult and entertaining. The game engine was significantly modified as well, which influenced the size of the maps and brought improvements to the visuals. For the first time in the series, the game is played from an isometric view.

What is important about the restaurant, is that mechanical mascots are its main attraction.

Trapped in a cramped watch room, the protagonist has to avoid contact with murderous robots during five subsequent nights. The task is not easy, because using various devices, such as lighting and monitoring systems, as well as locking the door drains the power supply, which has to be appropriately managed throughout the entire night. Despite its simplistic mechanics, Five Nights at Freddy's provides a good dose of anxiety and is capable of frightening the player with ease.

After the previous titles which experimented with the game mechanics, the devs at Firefly studios decided to return to the roots. Therefore, the player’s task is the development of a medieval village, along with the titular stronghold and the system of fortifications which ensure the safety of its residents. Following the formula of the previous game, the gameplay was divided into military and economic parts. We can focus on the economical aspect, ensuring a steady supply of the necessary raw materials, providing jobs for our subjects in progress. We can also focus on the military aspect, expanding the army and participating in battles, involving different specialized units and heavy siege machines. Aside from the typical game modes, a completely new mode, called free building, was introduced. The new graphic engine offers an improved visual layer, and the ability to wage battles during the night.
