About these games

Battle Brothers

Battle Brothers is a turn-based tactical RPG set in a medieval fantasy world. You lead a mercenary company in a procedurally generated campaign, choosing where to travel, whom to recruit, which contracts to take and how to train and equip your men. The world is fractured, the dead rise from their crypts, Greenskin hordes gather and Nobles prepare for war, so people turn to mercenary bands. You travel the land in real time, trade, seek recruits in taverns and accept dynamically generated contracts from settlements and Noble Houses; your deeds shape faction relations and your company’s renown.

Stoneshard

Stoneshard is a challenging turn-based RPG set in an open world, where the player takes on the role of a medieval mercenary. Travel with your own caravan, fulfill contracts and fight factions while exploring the war-torn land of Aldor, with ruined villages and monster-infested dungeons. Develop your character without class or level restrictions, using over 200 abilities and 400 equipment pieces, while treating wounds, hunger and mental state. A single mistake can mean death and lost progress, and saving is possible only at certain spots.

Shieldwall Chronicles: Swords of the North

Shieldwall Chronicles: Swords of the North is a tactical RPG with turn-based combat, in which you lead a mercenary band into the cold northlands of Tarren. You assemble a party of six from 15 classes and face undead, demons, lizardmen and other creatures. Warriors’ morale rises and falls with the course of battle, and each character can be equipped with magic items. The campaign offers over 50 hours of play, and battles can be replayed on different difficulties.

Gloomhaven

A tactical RPG set in the dark medieval fantasy land of Gloomhaven, where you lead a band of mercenaries, deal with unsavoury characters and shape the fate of the region. It is a digital adaptation of the board game by Isaac Childres and features a branching campaign of 95 story missions. Each turn you select two ability cards per mercenary and use the top half of one and the bottom half of the other, fighting on a hex grid through dungeons, forests and caves. You can play alone or in online co-op for up to four players, with bands of 2 to 4 mercenaries chosen from 17 characters.

Blackguards

Blackguards is a turn-based strategy RPG that asks what happens when a threatened world's only hope lies not with heroes in shining armour but with a band of misfits and criminals. Across more than 180 unique hex-based battlegrounds, players follow a dark, mature tale of crime, drugs and murder and lead a party of up to five characters. You set out as a warrior, mage or hunter, customising your character's skills, and at key turning points you decide the story's course and its outcome. Spells, skills and abilities shape your tactics, and interactive objects such as beehives or barrels, or flammable swamp gas, can be used to your advantage.

Crowntakers

Crowntakers is a turn-based strategy game with RPG elements that sends you on the crown’s orders into a medieval world full of challenging encounters and epic adventures. The world is randomly generated anew at each start, so the environments and encounters vary every time. The king has been abducted, and as the chosen one elected by him through a dream, you set out to free him from the evil duke before time runs out. On a hexagonal battlefield you lead nine individual mercenaries against enemies, gathering resources and improving companions and gear.
