A tactical turn-based RPG developed by the creators of Halfway. The story in Pathway is set in the 1930s and revolves around powerful ancient artifacts. The Nazis search for them, trying to beat the private collectors’ associations to it. The player takes control of a group of independent collectors – Lankford & Co – and attempts to find the ancient relics before they fall in someone else’s hands. The group controlled by the player comprises some eccentric characters, who carry out a number of dangerous missions taking place in the ruins of ancient civilizations, tombs filled with traps and monsters, and even Wehrmacht strongholds. Most of these missions offer players much freedom in the exploration of large locations; however, they also require them to fight many battles using the turn-based combat system. In between the missions, the player gets to the base in which he can manage his team, talk to NPCs and make story-related decisions. The creators of Pathway decided to implement the pixel art style enriched by modern visual effects, such as dynamic lighting.

An original strategy game with RPG elements, taking place in a unique dieselpunk universe of 1920+, created by a Polish concept artist Jakub Rozalski. The game portrays an alternative history of Europe at the turn of the 19th century, in which humanity used their knowledge and means to build powerful walking machines, used not only in battle but also e.g. in agriculture. Thus the gameplay features not only the cavalry, airplanes and prototype tanks, but also rather primitive and awkward mechs, seemingly not of this age. At the same time, the game is firmly grounded in Polish history and references important events such as the Battle of Warsaw.

The first expansion for Hearts of Iron III by Paradox Interactive. The add-on gives players more control over military and political aspects of their countries. Hearts of Iron III: Semper Fi allows us to set our own victory conditions that are hidden from our opponents. Diplomacy was expanded in terms of relations with allies, letting us convince them to attack a given target, share our technological inventions, or ask them for reinforcements. Hearts of Iron III: Semper Fi largely improves on artificial intelligence, making the computer-controlled countries defend their land even fiercer, better manage their naval forces, and conduct multiphase invasions. Another highlight of Hearts of Iron III: Semper Fi is a set of several hundred historical events that give the game more realism. Apart from solo gameplay, Hearts of Iron III also offers a multiplayer mode.

A standalone expansion for the universally-acclaimed grand strategy game, Hearts of Iron 2, by Paradox Interactive. The production lets us assume control over a chosen country and lead it to victory on the fronts of the World War II. The player oversees not only the military affairs but also politics, economy, and technological development. The users of Hearts of Iron 2: Doomsday receive the contents of the vanilla game and many novelties. The latter include a longer campaign that ends in 1953. Doomsday also features an alternative scenario of the World War II that is completely different from the one known from history. Moreover, the developers prepared an expanded technological development tree (we can construct an atomic bomb, attack helicopters, etc.) and the possibility of buying blueprints from our allies. An advanced yet user-friendly level editor is also noteworthy. The developers introduced a handful of technical fixes and an improved AI, as well.
