Forts
A great game with a great community. If you get bored of the main game, you can go into both mapping and modding. Both can be just as enjoyable as normal gameplay, and people on the official Discord will help if you have any problems. Absolutely recommended.

Rusted Warfare - RTS
OVERALL: Excellent simple game presenting solid RTS fundamentals with a non-threatening interface. Limited balance issues (but nothing super OP) and occasionally awkward pathfinding occur, but the simplicity and variety of gameplay through such simple mechanics plus a reliable lobby system makes the game a ton of fun.
NICE BITS:
- Units and economy are simple. At time of writing, there’s only one resource to track (though the dev does plan to add more forms of economy later), and units don’t have “special activated abilities”, they just shoot stuff. Some shoot up, some can’t; some shoot long, some short. Dev’s done a really good job of balancing basic play styles so most games are pretty fun.

What can I say. I love RTS games, and this fits into the catagory of what I love IN a RTS game. It has amazing diversity, the AI keeps you on your toes, custom maps, mods, and the multiplayer is very easy to set up. This is a gem of a game, im excited to see what it will hold in the future.
Pros:
+Cheap
+Many maps + custom maps makes good replay value
+Multiplayer is very easy to use, and setting up a game with friends is quick
+Unit diversity is ever expanding, from many types of aircraft to mech

Zombie Cure Lab
Mindless hordes of zombies roam the earth. Humanity has fled underground. Now after years of research brave scientists dare to leave everything behind to retake the world. Build a lab in the wilderness and do what it takes to achieve your designation: Find the cure. Save humanity!
Plan ahead, layout rooms and furnish them with objects and machinery to set up your lab. Expand it to match the needs of your growing population. Comfy beds, diverse food and all kinds of skill training are essential to keep up the morale within the apocalypse. Provide shelter, defense and treatment chambers to buy time for your scientists and set them up with everything they need to heal the zombies.
Gather basic resources to construct and grow. Process, refine, cook and manage your resources to sustain your lab and its inhabitants. Prioritize jobs within your lab to maximize efficiency, plan ahead to foresee upcoming trouble and create your zombie curing masterpiece!
Your scientists will come up with new technologies and research points. New upgrades will allow you to harvest high tier materials and allow you to build late game tech science equipment. Unlock new machines and perks in the techtree and progress through all four tech tiers in order to finalize the cure.
Zombie healing is what it is all about, but first you need to catch zombies with your fancy freezing guns. Escort your well preserved ice block zombies to the treatment chamber. Here zombie-human hybrids - the ’humbies’ - will emerge and become new friends willing to help you out. But beware the humbie, if he’s in a bad mood he might be hard to predict and start rampaging your lab. Keep them in shape at all times to scale up your workforce and UNDO the apocalypse!
After the Collapse
I have been playing this game for just over a week, and have already put in 40+ hours. I believe that Anarkis Gaming has got a great game her, and they continue to improve it as it is still Early Access. I have always been a fan of Base Building games, and the “Post Apocalypse” part of the genre is fun for sure! My first few times playing I didn’t last more than a day or 2 as I was still learning how to balance workload of the survivors. I will say that the best way to do things is small pieces at a time. Do not build multiple rooms/buildings/items at once as your survivors will be overwhelmed and not be able to complete anything. Overall, I love this game so far, and hope they continue to build on the great base they already have. I’ll finish my review with Pros and Cons.

An innovative base builder with people and expeditionary management. This review is based on Early Access 0.8.3 and for me it plays like a fairly smooth beta, rather than an Alpha build. Quite stable, with no real issues now, and quite a reasonable amount of content to play with.
The developers are quite active and responsive, critical for any EA title. I have no concerns about this one getting to full release which I can’t say about all my EA games unfortunately. There is already several game modes and scenarios which makes great for replay value. The GUI was easy to adopt, and the variety of options for creating games I was very pleased with. There’s a lot of things you can adjust to your liking, and that level of customisation at this point is outstanding,

Zodiac Legion
Zodiac Legion is a turn-based tactical RPG featuring lethal combat, squad management and strategic elements.

features
-
Lead your knights in turn-based tactical battles.
-
Explore ancient ruins and places of power, thwart the plans of enemy lieutenants, forge alliances, and restore the Zodiac Order.
-
Smash your way through fully destructible dungeons.
-
Expand and strengthen your stronghold, research new spells and craft powerful artifacts.
-
Reshape the terrain to your advantage.
-
Develop your warriors into mighty champions.
As the Grandmaster of the Zodiac Order, it will be your duty to restore this knightly brotherhood and rally its champions under the banners of the thirteen Zodiac signs. You will manage your domain, take important diplomatic decisions and train your warriors in the arcane arts. Enemy armies will invade your borders, forcing you to dispatch your knights on missions resolved through turn-based, tactical battles. Their superhuman powers will tip the scales in the face of overwhelming odds, but beware: many will not survive the ordeal. Yet exploring the secrets of necromancy may reveal that a Zodiac Knight’s duty need not end in death.
The work on Zodiac Legion began because we shared the vision of a game that would combine the tactical combat and strategic campaign of X-COM, with the fantasy aspects and dungeon crawling typical of most roleplaying games.
We decided to use the theme of the Zodiac because of its association with classical mythology, and due to its ties with distinct character archetypes, which served as the foundation of our class system. There are hundreds of distinct features and qualities attributed to the signs by astrology, which lends itself to a robust and interconnected system that has an impact on all the aspects of Zodiac Legion’s gameplay and storytelling.
Factory Magnate
Factory Magnate is part factory builder, part business tycoon. It puts you in the shoes of an industrious factory engineer with a small loan of a million credits. Your goal is to build an empire of factories spanning multiple planets in a procedurally generated solar system. You seek to dominate the solar system through sheer wealth and influence, not military might or political power.
AUTOMATION BY DEFAULT
You don’t control a character and you can place factory buildings anwyhere, as long as you have the money to do so. This takes the “early game” known from other similar games out of the equation, because you jump straight to automation and skip all the manual labor.
NO CRAFTING
It’s all about the money.. because in this game, money is your most important resource.
You don’t craft buildings, you buy them.
PROFIT IS EVERYTHING
You earn money selling your goods to the locals. They seem to have an endless supply of money to throw at you, but if you saturate the market, prices will drop - possibly making your factories operate at a loss. It’s up to you to strike a balance.
THE FACTORY NEVER SLEEPS
At the core of the game sits the main challenge: the factory is always running, and you must pay upkeep. If you’re not selling enough to make a profit, you’ll soon be out of business.
You. Must. Keep. Selling.
Time to Morp

Morp?!
Morps! A whole bunch of cute little creatures! Some are friendly, some are not, some bite, and some just run in circles and scream… But the most important part is - they MORPH!
Morph?!
Shapeshift, change, mutate, you name it! Feed it metal - crunch! - it’s producing metal now! Leave it near water - splash! - it’s your personal walking fountain! Mix and match to produce every resource you need!
Build a base!
Place fences, pipes, pumps, wires, decorations, lights, music and sit back in appreciation of a job well done and everyone living in peace and harmony… for five minutes tops.
Automate everything!

Dracula’s Castle
Manage the castle by expanding it, then build and unlock new rooms granting new mechanics to explore. The Alchemist will allow you to equip Dracula with mystical tools, unlock the bat cave to improve Dracula’s Mist Form. The more you expand, the more your labour force can grow. You’ll need to grow your army of servants in order to accumulate enough soil to sail to England on the Demeter.
Travel Transylvania by night but watch out for Van Helsing. Stalk the towns of Transylvania, on the hunt for fresh blood, or attempt to overwhelm them to gain powerful bonuses. Feast, recruit laborers or “invite” a guest to the castle, the choice is yours. You’ll need to entrap Jonathan Harker to fulfill Dracula’s dark designs.
Grow Dracula’s power the way you want to. Dracula possesses different attributes such as Power, Cunning, Speed, Charm and Magick. Choose which ones to train and equip the right relics for your build. Build new monsters at the Alchemist’s Lab utilising recipes found in the Necronomicon! Craft or acquire new gear throughout your adventure.

The spoils of battle are yours! Hand over curios and materiel to the Castle Alchemist to craft new items and raise new monsters to join Dracula’s dark menagerie.
Follow the early plot of Bram Stoker’s masterpiece, the main goal centers around Jonathan Harker, Van Helsing and the trip to Carfax Abbey in England; but plenty needs doing in the dark corners of Transylvania. Engage in various side-quests given to you by Death and other denizens of the castle as you work on building up Dracula’s regional power.
KeeperRL
For the developer of KeeperRL thanks for making a great game.
My impressions from playing the game about 1 ~ 2 years ago versus today (I haven’t played for 1-2 years waiting for the game to be finished but recently played it again).
Rating 1~2 years ago: 9/10
Sandbox dungeon keeper freaking awesome and satisfying exploration and village pillaging.
Powerful and fun spells that allow you to mess with the NPC’s and dominate the map.
Left feeling satisfied when you close the game because you felt like a powerful warlock/wizard dungeon keeper.
– Real player with 119.1 hrs in game
KeeperRL at it’s very base is a Roguelike, in which you take on the role of a “Keeper”, who’s job is to build a dungeon and maintain it, all the while encouraging monsters to come to your dungeon. There’s a handful of monsters and they all fill a role.
People have been comparing it to stuff, such as Dwarf Fortress and while I can see how it’d be easy to compare KeeperRL to that game, the reality is, it’s not nearly as deep, complex or polished as Dwarf Fortress; it’s no comparison at all. This statement still stands even after a the updates given to the game.
