Alien Hallway
Well the title says it all, Alien Hallway, to be blunt aliens in hallways, that is all there is to the game. To say it was made simple is an understatement, this game is so basic in nature that even a little child can play it.
It’s like the most basic version of lane defense/attacking that you can think of, Tug of war like game, you have no actual control over the game at all, you pretty much spawn soldiers and they walk by themselves down the hallway towards the aliens, the fighting and everything is done automatically, you have controls over the grenades and that’s it. That is it for the entire game, there is no noticeable changes to the actual gameplay, as you play you earn money which can be spent after missions to upgrade your soldiers, as the levels progress more aliens and soldiers are unlocked.

“Get ready to send marines to kill aliens that no man’s seen before!”
That, my friend, is the plot of Alien Hallway in one sentence. Sorry for spoiling it. Alien Hallway is a light strategy game where you only manage the finances and hiring troops, who handle the destruction by themselves.
Drones get you money by scavenging electronics. With money you can send marines to destroy the alien teleporter, the objective of every level. The marines are AI controlled and you can only choose, when to throw their grenades. At the same time you must not allow the aliens to destroy your base.

Rise of Legions
I have been following this game for some time and I have to say it has come a long way.
It is a nice mix out of tower-defense, card game and god knows what… The depth of the game only becomes clear to you after some time, even tho there is a tutorial. Then again figuring out all the things is half the fun.
I really like the deck building aspect, which is one of the major parts of the game, and theory crafting that you can do to make your deck fit, both esthetically (i dig the style style and some of those mtg references) as well as with gameplay synergies.

My overall impression? What a bad a$$ game!
I won’t go into great detail about the ‘how to’ behind the game play, you can find that in the videos and other reviews. I want to talk about this game from a bigger picture scale and why this is the type of game true strategy gamers should support instead of some of the ‘big name’ alternatives.
I’ve been searching for a game to ‘scratch the itch’ left behind from Starcraft 2 and COH2 for years… I’ve spent so much money buying some of the top flight, well reviewed strategy games that have come out over the last couple years but find myself getting bored and losing interest after a week or two tops. It’s been a struggle to find something that appealed to my desire for skill based, balanced, unique gameplay that required strategic thinking but also some element of ‘micro’ and direct interactive decision-making as well.

Monday Night Combat
This game is a ton of fun.
It’s set in a gameshow in the future where you play as a contestent (one of 6 classes – Sniper, Support, Tank, Gunner, Assault, Assassin). There are 2 modes crossfire (PvP) and Blitz (Co-op). Crossfire is the mode that I play the most. Basically it’s a 6 on 6 arena where your goal is to get your team’s bots past the enemy’s turrets in order to take down their moneyball. Once the moneyball’s shields are down, you can attack it. Lots of strategy is involved though due to the varying skills that each of the classes come armed with. You’ll need to take out enemy players, enemy bots and enemy turrets before you can get your bots in. There are environmental hazards you can use to your advantage, you can upgrade yourself in-game, you can buy/upgrade turrets, and you can even purchase additional bots to come help you out.

A simple fast paced team based shooter with moba like elements, pick from one of 6 classes each with their own unique skills and abillities. All classes have their strengths and weaknesses each with their own personality. Monday Night Combat is my favourite game on steam and always will be! Unfortunately the games playerbase is very limited, but with the help of the MNC community games are organised regularly. So don’t threat too much about never being able to play. The commentator of the game spews out hilarious dialogue about your situation and the teams performance, the game even has a mascot that appears on the field that you can shoot for money and prizes!

Dota 2
A game that truly grasps the idea of helping those in dire need to escape their reality.
After allowing peru to play on our servers, and bought accounts in 4-6k. This game has truly made a better place to find friends of South America, and help people fully understand the hardships and struggles these people go through by having feeding South Americans only play Pos 1-2 or jungle. It opened up a world of hard working, can collecting children to gather change and be fortunate enough to play at their internet cafe’s and flood US West/East. God Bless them.

Full stop, this game is D..E..D Dead. You can find some random games every now and then but there should be no expectation to join random lobbies as the game died off years ago. You should only aim to purchase this title if you have friends that will be playing with you. I do check randomly for games but they are typically locked or just a 10 wave.
That being said you should add this game to your Wishlist and grab the 5 pack bundle when it goes on Sale. I think this game is worth 25 bucks for the 5 pack and it is a steal if your group of friends like these survival wave based games. This game is best enjoyed in groups of 4 or 5 in my opinion. Three is a decent time but you won’t be pushing as hard as it is harder to cover map objectives on the harder difficulties.

A year or so back I purchased the Fatshark Bundle for myself and a friend. At first glance all the games looked entertaining and the reviews were good. Letting the game run for cards it unlocked one achievement and in doing so dropped my overall percentage score, it is because of this that I have played this game a lot sooner than I was planning.
Before I get into the details of why you shouldn’t purchase this game let me tell you what’s good about it first. The game itself looks good and runs smoothly at 60fps. The gladiators/arena remind me of Borderlands with it’s wise cracking commentator and post apocalyptic atmosphere. It shares the same universe as Krater, so if you wish to find out more details about this world you can do so if you please. Your character’s upgrade system although improperly balanced is fairly fleshed out, allowing for a wide variety of customisation. It’s got achievements, trading cards, a cloud save, and cooperative play, all of which work perfectly.

Mushroom Wars
Mushroom Wars is a very cute strategy game. Its simple controls and many levels make it a good buy. If set on hard, the game can be pretty brutal, so even master strategists will have a good time. The game introduces you to new mechanics each level, so it never gets too complicated, and there is plenty of room to learn and experiment.
You have only one type of unit at your disposal, you also cannot build structures anywhere you would like but are only limited to use those already placed at the start of the level. Those under your control can be converted into towers that shoot nearby enemies, forges that boost your abilities in battle or houses that produce additional units.

A Real Time Strategy game between mediocre and bad; it is tagged as Tower Defense, but isn’t. Graphics are decent, but consist in quite simple cartoons, specially the backgrounds, maybe cause the product is orientated to children and multiplayer. Runs fine and rarely crashed.
The mechanics is based on the old strategic games of the 90’s, where the infamous “rush” tactic ( send all troops at once to attack one objetive or send them in waves to saturate and confuse ) was all and the IA rules: it never waste time, ever knows where and when player do something, his strong and weak points. For these well knowed reasons the singleplayer mode at hard difficulty demands tons of frustration tolerance and perseverance for learning from the IA conduct shapes and retry each map again, to find those steps or pathways to win that developers planed: naturally, only 2% players can finish campaign and complete all skirmish maps with this mode. Normal mode is not much easy, and only 11% can beat it.

变量 Variables
Edit: It’s become one of my favorite games on Steam! You will really have to think to beat the higher difficulty levels.
It’s a good idea, realize the execution is currently very crude, and English descriptions are laughable. ; - ) almost returned it, but I’m hoping it will continue evolving.
There are some aspects of Tetris (or more accurately Rampart) in the placement phases.
it would be better to have more tiles, as it’s easy to trap yourself with a layout you can’t expand. Edit: You will learn that you can remove the bases and relocate them! Do this wisely for better chance of survival.

If you’re a native English speaker like myself, you might have an issue locating the button to select language. It’s a small hurdle. Apart from that, once you get an idea of what you’re doing in this game, it becomes extremely interesting. You start your little game being able to flip over three tiles, which you can select one of as your turret of choice. It doesn’t end there, and if you think your level one turret will end up just taking space, it won’t. Once you get enough turrets that fit into a crafting recipe, it’ll wipe those tiny little baby turrets out and replace it with a turret with more hair on its chest than Austin Powers'.

Warriors Of Titus
Updated Review as of 7/7/20
v2.3.5
There’s really only 3 VR Moba style games currently battling.
Cradle of Sins/Megalith/Dead Shot Heroes.
CoS came out of the gates swinging and promising the world and in the last 6 months haven’t heard a peep or an update and their game is still really early access. Megalith had the big guns behind them being made from developers with AAA experience… launched their game, patched it a couple of times and continue to ignore the community. DSH has done nothing but get better.

An amazing VR MOBA. Very well put together and addictive game play. It offers the perfect balance of strategic game play without being overwhelming. The online player base is very welcoming, but even playing solo against bots is very satisfying. Be sure to check out the discord channel where the dev is extremely active and responds to player input. You’ll also get a sense of when people are generally online and looking for match. There is a tiny bit of a learning curve when you first start, but it’s not significant and is definitely worth it. The heroes play very differently, so try a few if you’re not initially convinced. If you’ve tried MOBAs before but got turned off by the toxic community, then you should definitely try this as the players are great!
