Outcasts of Orion

Outcasts of Orion

Outcasts of Orion is an autobattler roguelike combining a solid game loop and varied strategic potential to offer an engaging experience with much replayability. You draft from a variety of randomly presented abilities and units to craft your squad and discover unexpected synergies. The game does struggle a bit early on in conveying the appeal of its mechanic, but given some time, it reveals an underlying layer of depth that keeps you coming back. If you are a fan of either autobattlers or strategy roguelikes, this game is worth giving a shot.

I’ve come back to add, this game has more layers and depth than I originally imagined it may be “feigning”. On the flip side, the enemy formations are a little limited. There is deviation from the standard, but buy in large, there are a few standard formations you will find them in. That said, for the price point, what you are getting is more than fair from where I stand, and the developer seems to be active on the boards, and they seem to be keeping an eye on this game and keeping it in a good state.

Lazy Galaxy 2

Lazy Galaxy 2

I like this game, but it takes a while to appreciate it,

My first impression of this game was well, not good – the graphics are old school, the combat uninteresting and some of the stuff like achievements seemed to be impossible,

After 84 hrs of playing it though, I really like it. Its addicting. It has depth.

The combat really is a little funky but that might be idue to my graghics card (its not the best in the world).

It is well thought out,.

IT REALLY IS LAZY. The game lives up to its name. You don’t have to be particularly paying close attention to it. It is a good game to play when you are not in the mood for something super complicate like “War on the Sea”. Unlike my other simulations, if you fll asleep playing you game is not badly affected.

This game will let every Idle gaming heart skip a beat!

Not only is the artwork amazing but the replayability is huge!

With the last update (Cataclysm update) not only can you prestige now, but after conquering the whole galaxy you’ll be given the option for New Game+ in form of a inovative system: You get to choose your own blessings AND curses for the new game!

In my opinion Lazy Galaxy 2 does this better than 95% of other Idlegames i played so far and this really makes it fun.

The game is still in early access, but fear not! The developers are EXTREMLY transparent and communicative with their community and fans and even take suggestions and critic the right way and morph it into something beautiful!

Swarm Queen

Swarm Queen

So, I discovered the free version of this game on Armor Games/Kongregate, but Adobe Flash is garbage and I wanted a better experience, and I wanted to support the indie developer, so I bought the game here and am beating it again! Very fun, a little crude and simplistic, but it has complexity and challenging difficulty in its own way. Would definitely recommend!

Swarm Queen’s gameplay is pretty straight-forward (though actually quite nuanced); you play, well… a swarm queen! And other swarm queens typically don’t take kindly to you - so you try to murder each other for survival and space. Spawn harvesters, develop eggs, hatch creatures, spew acid, even grow more organs, and take down your enemies… before they can take down you. Each level has its gimmick, and it may take a few tries to figure out how to get through it….. and then you can try it on hard mode :D

a simple, easy to learn game that is simultaneously challenging. each level is different to the last and consistently requires you to change up your strategy prior and during battle as the enemy adapts in accordance to how you play. this can lead to some pretty lengthy and intense tug of wars that you don’t find very often in other games. although it’s pretty lacking in content once you finish the main levels, there’s some bonus levels that are fun to play, as well as upgrades to give yourself an advantage in battle. definitely recommend for those looking for a good strategy game.

Darkzone: Idle RPG

Darkzone: Idle RPG

I have been playing for a long time during the alpha (before a massive overhaul of the combat happened) and when a Steam version (that also got like a 6 months alpha) happened.

When I found this game for the first time, the game was a bit clunky and the UI somewhat weird. The game was way way more simpler, we didn’t have conquest, the story was played ALWAYS as co-op (you used a second player as a bot, anyone in the range of your level), and we had a tap system to do damage, that nobody used.

Devs, in discord, listened to feedback, and with every update, some of the clunkyness was removed, some suggestions were added, things got changed, and we eventually got a massive rehauling of the combat and progression system, with levels, attribute builds, skills, and new different stats (evasion, accuracy, damage reductions… those stats didn’t exist at all before).

It’s a (mostly) auto-battler with some rpg / strategic elements that is a port from a mobile app. My sole experiences with the game have been through Steam, so this review is not based on the mobile experience. Overall, I recommend the game to players who enjoy incremental / auto-battler style games that incorporate some strategic elements.

Pros:

It’s visually appealing

The devs are exceptionally active on Discord and respond promptly to player issues. They remain positive in their player interactions regardless of ratings. When I raised an issue with my account, it was addressed quickly.
