Primeval
Despite the game being early access it’s fully functional and certainly enjoyable, lots of potential to be a great game.

I really love turn-based games and stumbled upon Primeval on the turn-based lovers website, which then lead me to Steam.
Primeval has a lot of potential, the Developer is cool and a nice guy. He is working hard to make this game a very unique experience. I have played turn-based games for years and I haven’t come across anything like this before, which is what I love about it. You enter the game in ‘God Mode’ where you create your domain with terrain hexes, various fantasy/monster units, and spells. There is an ever-growing selection of these and I know the Developer has lots more in store! You spend essence to create the land, units, spells and buildings. You build your castle on one of the terrain hexes, this must be protected at all costs or you lose the game. When you are happy with your domain set-up you then enter a live turn-based match (3 minutes per move) against another person(s) and the domains created by each player will then join together, with a few random hexes added in, these random hexes will have neutral owners. Randomly each turn three hexes then produce resources according to their colour values (green for Forest, red for Volcano etc) which can then be used to deploy your units onto the domain or cast spells. There are buildings that increase resource yield, help defence and more. It’s a typical hex game where each type of terrain incurs a movement cost for a unit, dependant on the units move value. Each unit has unique actions and some abilities to attack enemy units and damage buildings. Once your castle is lost you are returned to God Mode and your domain is amended accordingly, where upon it can be amended ready for the next match. Spend those essences wisely! It would make a really good table top board game (worth a think for the Developer) The Developer is working on single player mode, more achievements, more units, more actions, improving the UI and is clearly very passionate about it. I am excited to see how this game continues to grow, as I find it charming, addictive and a bit of a brain burner! If you like turn-based hex games, based on fantasy, that feel like a board game, or just fancy something completely different then I highly recommend it!

Unending War: Grand-Strategy Chess
Game inconsistently gets stuck as the computer doesn’t take it’s turn in the chess battles. There is no way to then proceed, other than killing the program from the task manager. I’m hoping the dev gets back to me about this in my discussion thread, because the game is a neat twist on chess that I enjoyed playing more than the AI apparently did.

Awesome new look at chess with a “grand campaign” map. The chess board itself is tactical in nature as different tiles yield bonuses to units. Definitely worth a look for chess fans.

Dominions 5 - Warriors of the Faith
I bought Dom 5 just yesterday and started 2 games, 1 random map game and 1 game on the cradle map, which is still one of the best maps in the game( you can download it from the map subforum).
I consider myself a veteran dominions player, having played a lot of single player and multiplayer in Dom 2 and Dom 3 very succesfully.
Dom4 I never played in MP but I did play some really long lasting SP games on the glory of gods map using Mods to strengthen the AI at the highest difficulty setting.
I think dom5 is definitely worth the money, it feels much better polished than Dom4 and also better balanced …which is a pretty big achievement from the devs considering this game is only out for some days now.

I’ve had quite mixed reactions to this game but it may definitely be appealing to some people.
Pros
-
Very varied and different factions that aren’t cookie-cutter copies of each other, there is a lot of mythical lore. Exploring different options will take quite a lot of time.
-
Multitude of viable and strong strategic options, battles can be decided by huge buffed armies / massive magical evocations/superheroes geared with magic items/ reanimating huge swaths of undead/ …
For a fantasy-themed 4x there truly are a lot of things to do.

Goblins of Elderstone
My first review, finally, wow!
→ Right now i would give this game a Neutral rating, but that is not possible, and also i see great potential in this game, so i recommend it if you want to support the game and the developers. Don’t buy it yet if you’re not very patient and you don’t want to serve, literally, as a crash test dummie. ;-)
Played this game for roughly 6h, i had like 10 or more crashes. Many while i was simply trying to save → Game-Progress lost. It’s always the Unreal4-Engine that is crashing and asking you to send in a report. So the Inbox should be pretty packed by now. ^_^

The Short of it: Currently Early Access, but bursting with possibilities and originality. Building, resource management, raiding, diplomacy, trading, defending - all done by your own customized horde of goblins!
Reminds me of: If you liked Banished, Stone Hearth, or Rimworld, you’ll probably like Goblins of Elderstone. Goblins of Elderstone brings a unique and chaotic twist to the city-building genre - it’s a Goblin Tribe Simulator! Nurture your tiny clan as it grows to stand against the other races and even the gods. Rule over the chaos and feed the growing goblin war machine by raiding dungeons and villages.

Hellbreath
Hellbreath is an MMORPG top-down view game where you have to select one of two citizenships and fight other players to defend your city.
In this game you will be able to train your character to convert it on a Warriors with STR and DEX as his main stats, a Mage using INT and MAG or an Archer, using AGI and VIT as his main stats, each one of these paths will have pros and cons, for the warrior you will have an easy way to quickly attack your enemies with melee weapons, being players or NPCs, but also you will not be covered from magic and arrows. As a Mage, you will be able to do great amounts of damage with the aggressive magics or support your friends with a variety of buffs, but the mage is slow because of the casting times and easy prey for all kinds of weapons. As an archer, you will be able to do quick damage from long distances to all kinds of enemies with bows, crossbows, and special arrows. The archers have a great amount of health but they are especially weak to melee weapons and magic.

The Fall of Balance
The Fall of Balance is a VR, fantasy game focused on Colossal boss fights, each with various mechanics, like climbing, character Skills, and others. Although it can be easily compared to Shadow of the Colossus in VR, many gameplay elements make it unique. You will have to trick the giant Guardians in order to climb them and search for their vital spots.
The game is mainly centered around boss fights, but Easter Eggs will be a huge part of the game too, hopefully creating a great and strong community for The Fall of Balance.
Alpha Lyrae Discovery
bought the game at a discount of 90%, not a bad game, there is not enough multiplayer, but one is not bad either. it is clear that the developer has not abandoned this brainchild and continues to release updates.

My 5yo absolutely loves this game. It’s just simple enough to where he’s learned the WASD and mouse movements enough to play it by himself. Really appreciate developers who put stuff out that little ones can play.
