A great game for playing when you are working or watching something. Once you have played for a while you can set off runs and just check in on them every so often to make some changes. At the same time there is a quite a bit of depth here. Getting to know each Champion and how they work best, and who they work best with. Changing things up depending on each stage you are playing, and being sure to pay attention to which of your items are the strongest.
And then come the regular events which take you back to basic each time and you have to formulate new strategies to accelerate you way through the new stages whilst unlocking new champions and gearing them up.
All in all a very fun game that you can skim the surface of or deep dive into the gameplay mechanics and come away with having had a good time.

A medieval style town building with enough elements to make it also feel live a survival game. Balancing population explosions with food production all whilst crops can fail, and human diseases decimating your population. There's a lot of fun and satisfaction to be had her in making it through a hundred years or more with your little outpost turning into a sprawling town.

Darkly depressing, and yet ultimately fascinating at the same time. Take a look into a game of survival that has higher costs to your humanity than most games, where survival doesn't always feel like winning.

House of the Dying Sun is a high paced, action packed series of well crafted missions placing you in the cockpit of a star fighter from which you can direct the actions, eventually, of a fleet of ships. Each mission is played within a pretty tight time limit, and you have more than enough to cope with within the 5 or so minutes each run of a mission lasts. This is helped immeasurably by the music which sets the tone and gets the pulse racing before you've even fired off a single shot.

If you crave a solid space combat game that you can play either in a long run, or even for the occasional quick blast, with plenty of replayability House of the Dying Sun is a great entry in the genre with it’s own clever take on proceedings.

Tropico has always been a game you can just pop in and out of for years. I was still playing the original just last year, but this newer version does help to grow the game by quite a bit. Probably worth getting Tropico 4 now of course, but any version will entertain.

Great for either a 10 minute blast or some more devoted time. Always has to thinking and reacting in equal measures.
