Dominions 4: Thrones of Ascension I’ve played several thousand hours of this game, and dominions 3. The only other game i’ve played anywhere near as much is tabletop rpgs. But i’m biased, old hand, fan, etc. This guy isn’t. Here’s what he had to say on the Steam forum. @Stephen: Earlier tonight, one of the most epic occurences I have ever seen in a video game occured. Seeing that as a sign of a good game and also worth telling about, I decided to post here for your reading pleasure....

Kanso How to describe Kanso? Well, you play with your mouse, and you have to draw a line around a shape! Sounds pretty simple right? This is one of those relaxing, zen like games, where you think everything is all easy and simple, but quickly you realise that things take some skill. This is a “line following” game. Everything is very bright and colourful and really is a joy to play....

XIBALBA Worth playing, if you’re ok with some jank… Xibalba is a Mayan themed retro FPS made by a the small indie dev team Reef Software. This theme is really cool and unique, and gives the game an aesthetic that is different from most indie or retro FPS games. Shooting and movement feel really smooth, and it’s generally a lot of fun. Level design is old school in nature, with claustrophobic corridor-esque levels and the occasional more open arena combat areas....
