Shields of Loyalty
Fantasy General
FG2
Fantasy Wars + Elvish Legacy
If you liked those, you’ll like this. (Esp the o.g.)
A little rough around a few edges, but up until August the devs were freely communicating with the community, and I’m holding out hope they haven’t gone anywhere. I really enjoy the aesthetic and ambient sounds, (I’m a sucker for animated falling leaves).
The title is unforgiving, happening across a hidden enemy may well result in a squad wipe. Learning controls may require some trial and error also, since there isn’t a manual that I’ve seen.

Fun game. Definitely reminds me of the old SSI tactical strategy games, especially the original Fantasy General.
A bit rough around the edges now but shows good promise. If you’re a turn-base strategy junkie, it’s worth putting down the money now and play along in its EA form and watch how it develops.
If you’re not a hard core turn-base player and wants something more polished/finished, then I recommend putting this game on your Wishlist or follow it and see how it turns out in a few months.

Yummy Mahjong
I decided to buy this game. For such a small price, it’s a great option, because there are few decent games like this. The game has an amazing interface, sounds and mechanics. I recommend this game to everyone :)

I play with pleasure. It has a positive effect on fine motor skills and visual acuity. So I rest - I listen to audiobooks and play.
I love mahjong in general, I try different options. Soothes the nerves.

Aeloren Tactics
Many grammar and spelling error, total lack of map design and absolutely no tutorial nor explanation(will be kind of rough for players new to the genre)
There is many better and cheaper alternatives, don’t lose your money on this.

This game is the very definition of why you shouldn’t take reviews too seriously.
I read the reviews and thought of not getting this. Boy, were they wrong. One of the reviews complains about grammar. I don’t see it. In fact, that guy’s grammar is atrocious. Secondly, the developer states that the font makes the capital “H” look lower case. So, that explains a bit. Also the other reviews about the game being too hard? You have multiple characters that have one hit kill items across the map at the start of the game. Also the side missions were very easy and my people are very strong. It just sounds like people are not actually playing the game and are quick to leave negative feedback. So, I just have to say… play the game. You won’t be upset.

Contingency Creatures
A PvP indie pixel-art monster battler with a unique approach to turn-based combat. Choose your moves 3 turns ahead… and create a “Plan B” for if things go wrong! Will you wield your contingency plans to create ambiguous multi-layered strategies, or to fortify a brute-force offense?
Choose from a diverse pool of Creatures, each with their own unique attacks and animations, to build a team that suits your preferences. Then go head-to-head against other players online.
This game’s system is unique in that players must publicly declare their moves up to 3 turns in advance. However, what a player says they’re going to do might not match their real intentions – with “Contingency Plans,” a player can make secret modifications to their publicly-stated orders that only take effect if certain conditions are met! The key to victory is to thwart the opponent’s publicly-declared moves while trying not to inadvertently trigger their Contingency Plans.
Empires Shall Fall
Empires Shall Fall is a turn based tactics set in a dieselpunk world. Exploit terrain for combat advantage, combine troops, upgrade your army, eradicate your enemies with sheer power and sharp tactics.
In a world very resembling our own, a Great War is waged. Three vast superpowers struggles for domination. Black Empire wages conquest wars since first days of existence. Blue League unites the world under rule of faith and market economy. Red Union stands above geopolitics and leads a class war of opressed against opressors. Who will stand victorious and write a history of a new world?
Fort Meow
The goal of the game is simple: You have to build an catproof pillow fort to be able to read a book in the attic.
The thing is there is more than meet the eyes at first and the story behind the situation is certainly one of the cutest I read. I won’t spoil it because it’s part of what makes this game so nice and there is nothing better than letting yourself being surprised by the reason why there are so many lap obsessed cat in the house.
I’m playing that game in the background when I’m doing something else (aka discussing with people, doing a quest on a MMO or roleplaying) and it’s exactly the sort of game you can enjoy by focusing fully on it or doing something else at the same time. You have as much time as you want to prepare your defense against the catlaps, so taking break to do something else is 100% possible.

Fort Meow is a somewhat short physics based pillowfort simulator. In this game you follow Nia as she unravels the secrets of her grandparents sudden disappearance and why there are so many cats around…And why they’re so clingy!
You begin the game building a basic fortress from chairs and brooms, and eventually you have an entire house worth of furniture in there, all ready to ward off the cats who keep trying to interupt your quest to figure out what Nia’s grandpa wrote in his journal the days shortly before this all.

Godless Tactics
TL;DR, Solid turn-based RPG with plenty of tactics and strategies that will bring dozens of hours of enjoyment, and plenty of replayability. Video from developer that shows gameplay for those wanting to see how the game works.

This game could best be described as a mix of Fire Emblem and Total War. While not as shiny and new as the more recent editions of those franchises, it definitely has the depth of strategy and story that either have. As someone who doesn’t really get that endorphin kick from Fire Emblem-esque games, I wasn’t sure I would get a significant amount from the combat. But I was wrong: Godless Tactics has a very simple, yet deep, combat system that makes proper strategy feel rewarded. I greatly enjoyed thinking about what to do on my turn, and every counterattack and loss felt honestly deserved. But boy oh boy, does methodically slaughtering the enemy feel even better.

Haven’t had this much fun with a strategy game in years!
In this game, there’s real strategic value in exploring remote areas, or in raiding supply lines while avoiding larger armies, or in reinforcing key locations on the map into massive chokepoints, in short, lots of stuff you can do to meaningfully contribute to your allies' war effort apart from the obvious conquest of settlements. High-level weapons and items that you may find allow you to take on foes way more numerous or higher-level than yourself, and different classes naturally excel at the different tasks detailed above.

What an interesting game!
The video trailer and game description give a decent overview of some of the main aspects of the gameplay, which involve using (some subset of) your available tools to solve a puzzle in the current room. The large number of tools that each interact with a number of different room elements creates many puzzles that can be solved in multiple ways. And after you get through the tutorial zone and perhaps a few short individual failed runs, you discover that the game is not merely about solving a series of individual room puzzles. It’s also a resource-management game, where you must realize when rooms have multiple solutions, and then carefully choose which solution–and thus which set of resources–you want to spend on the current room in order to preserve resources you know you will need in another room.

I’ve been playing this game since its beta release and I am shocked that there’s not more hype. The puzzles are incredibly addicting and I am not even close to running out of gameplay. I think that the art is really classic and simple, which is really refreshing, since my computer can’t really handle graphically intensive games. I really hope that other potential players read this review and get the game so we can make a Herman Electro community!
