Arbitology: Dei Gratia Rex
A Conquest Unfinished
Duke William of Normandy tasted victory at the Battle of Hastings, but not without paying a price in blood. While he afterwards took London and held a hasty coronation, he succumbed to his wounds shortly thereafter. His young son, William Rufus, succeeded him — an easily controlled puppet for the other Norman lords.
Meanwhile in the north Earls Morcar and Edwin, with the cooperation of Stigand, Archbishop of Canterbury, propped up their own puppet king in Edgar the Ætheling. These pretenders of the House of Godwin never relinquished their claim on the English throne, though the opportunity to press it has thus far eluded them.
A tense peace descended upon the land. Now, fifty years later, the status quo is nearing its end. Can you, the grandson of William the Bastard, finish that which he began?

It’s a pretty good game for what little there is. You must find the right combination on how to survive. I’m a fan of post apocalyptic games and this fits the criteria. Funny characters and hard to decide who lives and dies.

Born in 19th feb 1630, Shivaji maharaja dreamed about the ‘Swarajya’ - Kingdom of Marathas with the help of childhood buddies like Netaji Palkar, Yesaji kank, Bahirji naik, Tanaji malusare . Surrounded by Qutubshah in south, Adilshah in the east, Portugese at the west and Mughals in the north, It was very difficult for Shivaji to form his own empire as he has to fight wars every now and then against many enemies. His plan was to fight gorilla warfare with his opponents and for that forts played quite an important role. He started winning forts at the early age of 14 around Pune area.
But there was a time in 1665 when Mirza Raje Jay sigh came with hefty army of 80000 soldiers. Shivaji knew this was the time for truce as war strategy. He had to give up 23 of his forts to Mughals with 4 lack gold coins. Out of 23 forts few were very important for Maratha dynasty. One such fort was Kondhana near Pune.
Shivaji Maharaj deceived Aurangzeb and came back from Agra to Pune in 1666. He started winning back his forts one by one. Kondhana was one such strategically important fort. But it was very difficult to conquer. Out of many of his potential colleagues and soldiers there was Tanaji, he knew a lot about this fort.
In 1670 feb, Tanaji was planning Marriage of his Son, When Shivaji Maharaj called him and asked him to fight a battle against Mughal Subhedhar Udaybhan who was commanding the great Kondhana. The great Tanaji postponed the marriage of his beloved son and decided to win back Kondhana for the great Shivaji Maharaj.

This is a game that relies heavily on luck. You can very easily get a random event that completely ruins you seconds into your game. You might end up starting a new game over and over before you make it through the first ‘story’ goal. And yet, it’s very much worth playing.
Once you get that little bit of good luck mixed with frugal resource management, you can make it through the first twenty or thirty tiles and clear the first couple of challenges. Learn your limits – don’t overspend or expand too fast. You’ll learn what impact each event choice has, which upgrades work best for your kingdom.

Had fun in the short time I’ve played and quickly figured out how to keep a 0 loss of people.
I would love to see it expand more than 100 tiles but even at 90 it became slow to move across the screen when zoomed out. Some kind of option to speed up the cursor would be needed to expand more I guess.
More levels of 100 tiles but with harder conditions would be nice if expanding to more tiles is not feasible.
The text sections are a little long and some repeat through the game, so I did as another reviewer had done and skipped through the text to find the main points.

How To Make Scrambled Eggs
Add some butter to pan on medium-low heat. While it melts, combine eggs with some milk, add salt and pepper. Add into the pan once hot. Stir occasionally until the eggs have firmed up to your taste. For cheesier eggs, add cheese. For bacon flavor, add bacon. Do not add pets or spouses.

Paper Shakespeare: Cthulhu Coriolanus
BECOME A LEGEND.
General Caius “Coriolanus” Martius is one of Rome’s most feared warriors. So, you know, as this is a war story, that’s gonna have a happy ending. As a war story in Shakespeare Times™, it will 100% have a happier ending than any other happy ending.
Yes, that’s sarcasm.
Enemies are around every corner. Old vendettas lurk in every shadow. War is never over. Navigate Caius through this poorly-drawn (boy, that joke is really overused by now) visual novel of battle, betrayal, and choices that you have to make every so often that may or may not throw the story in a new direction. A direction that Shakespeare never intended. Scary, right? Total Death of the Author right here.
Navigate a weird lil' adventure game of war and more war, and sometimes politics. The politics of - wait for it:
Modern Warfare.
- As Caius, the choices you make in how exactly to respond to certain situations may open up other paths down the road

Great Game, easy to grasp especially after they added the tutorial. Only complaint is that when you start finishing up the tree, your game crashes constantly.

The game bears considerable resemblance to titles such as “Crisis in the Kremlin”, though I’d say it still isn’t as deep. With that said, it explores an extremely interesting and often overlooked period of political history - the 2014 events in Ukraine. The game takes place in the immediate prelude to the Euromaidan movement, as the player is placed at the head of Ukraine in the run-up to the signing of the EU association treaty, the rejection of which by former Ukranian President Viktor Yanukovich triggred the start of the movement.

The demo does not compare to the full version. I don’t want to make any spoilers, but I played through a few scenes that brought tears to my eyes.
The game can be a bit challenging sometimes (the game trailer actually helped me to figure out where to go next), but it is definitely one of the best multiple choice games I’ve played by far.
