Solaris
So fun! If you like games like Risk or Chess you will love this game. But instead of turns its all in real time just really slow, like make your move to set up what you want your ships to do, then come back and check it hours later when they are there. Or you can set your ships to loop, so they pick up and drop off troops where you want them FOREVER. I just started playing and entered like 15 games at once and I spend all day playing it without having to wait haha. Addicting, fast and great learning curve, and good replay value (harder for me to claim this latter one as I’ve only put in 40 hrs so far, just seems like a game I will always come back to).

The only negative reviews about this game are people who are mad because there are no tutorials and don’t know how to play. I mean… I was in the same boat but I had no problem learning, it is actually really easy to learn and only took a couple minutes, so I’m not sure what the problem really is. There is a wiki tab right in the game to help learn and beginner games.
I like it because it doesn’t need my full attention. I can play another game and have this up on my other monitor. Only have to play a few minutes each day and you can have multiple games going at once.

Infinity Kingdom
This game is heavy pay to win. There’s no limit of how much you can spend and the power difference is unbeatable. As a free to play player you can reach most milestones and with a bit of spending you can get everything in the game just slower than whales. You can eventually transfer server find a better environment with non-toxic whales. So as a long term game is great, but at the beginning the whales will bully the server.
Players in the same alliance as the whales receive an insane amount of resources, gems and vip points. Unbalancing the server even more.

Decent game, but some dragons and heroes can be obtained only by purchasing bundles with real money.
It means that’s not free-to-play, but buy-to-play, and, above all, i’m forced to downvote because some of them are pay-to-win. “Charles the Great” appears in a bundle for the ridiculous price of 99 bucks, and he’s totally overpowered.
Besides this, you receive a decent amount of speed up and other boosts for free.
For free you can also roll units and have a chance to find legendaries or “fragments” to summon legendaries. Every day you earn two crystals to roll (one from daily quests and one for free).

Conquest: Medieval Kingdoms
“Conquest: Medieval Kingdoms” is a turn-based 4X grand strategy game, played on a procedurally-generated strategic world map and you get to decide at the start of your game if it is made of a one large continent, few continents, large, islands, or small islands. Tactical battles are fought on tactical battlefields and are real-time, like Total War. Every world-map and battlefield is generated, so entirely unique, so this game will always have something new to throw at you.
I am extremely impressed by this game, especially since it is a one-man dev team. The dev uses Unity. I am playing on easy ( with only a few religions to start off with) to get a feel for the game. I restarted a few times in the first few minutes to get a reasonable starting position (with my back to an ocean and mountains), I am playing on the strategic map and I haven’t even bothered to dive down into the tactical battles YET as you can auto-resolve them (larger armies don’t always beat smaller ones on auto-resolve, even on Easy)! The game is a sandbox where you can do pretty much what you want to expand your kingdom into an empire. It has a principality, vassal, kingdom, empire and allies system. It has an economy of power, gold, food, wood and iron, as well as controlling trade routes. There are monthly turns, 12 months to a year, as well as seasons and weather (snow ground cover causes attrition). It is like a simplified version of Crusader Kings. If you like Medieval type games, you will like this. It literally just came out today, so there are a few bugs, but it is surprisingly bug free.

Took a while to get used to the game and battle system, but if you read the tutorial properly and get used to it, it is a great exciting game. one of those games you can easily lose track of.
Do love how you have to try make sure parts you take over to assymulate or they will come back to bite you
If you love stratagy games you will love this

Galactic Civilizations® II: Ultimate Edition
In a word: Addictive. Yes, addictive in that terrifying, inescapable, “just-one-more-turn” way. Galactic Civilizations II is what you get if you take Master of Orion II, expand it so that the galaxy, tech tree and ship customisation are roughly a hundred times as huge without ever becoming boring, bump the graphics up to a standard still respectable today for a TBS, give each civilization some serious make-or-break differences (hint: the Drengin and the Yor almost always end up dominating most of the galaxy that ISN’T YOU), and shove it out there to give almost every other space-based TBS a serious poke in the eye.

I decided to pick up a new 4x space game after pouring many hours into Endless Space. Endless Space lacked complexity and I searched for a more in depth game. Galactic Civilizations 2 fulfill that criteria. I started playing this in 2015 so I have no nostalgic feelings for it. The game is quite good and fun despite its age and limitations, in fact it is the best 4x space game I have played so far (other space 4x I’ve played are MOO2, Endless Space and Sword of the Stars). Take a good look at the pros and cons because some points might put you off.

Power & Revolution 2021 Edition
Do I recommend this game? Hell no.
There is no stability, there is very little realism, this game does most stuff very simplistically, the graphics are shitty, the combat system needs a MAJOR rework, essentially nothing has changed since the first iteration of this game came out.
Diplomacy needs an overhaul. Really? You have a game where debt is a huge factor but there’s no debt diplomacy? But you’ve released multiple versions and countless bug fixes and cant seem to add basic features like debt diplomacy? Thanks Eversim.
