#33: A post-apocalyptic game with a bit of silliness included Fallout 2, found by UnderwaterFunktown
- Part of a long-running series
- The last mainline entry from it's original creators
- There was a follow-up in the works, but it was largely unfinished, though most of it is still canon for the rest of the series.
- After this, the company that created the series did prefer making spin-offs of the franchise that were very poorly received and certainly had a hand in bringing the company down.
- The spinoffs were about a specific brotherhood clad in steel armor from the base games.
#32: Your mission: To slowly terraform Mars into a habitable planet Nobody found this one. This game is called Per Aspera
- You are actually an AI who steers the terraforming effort, but after the early phase human scientists will move in and conduct research on your behalf.
- Along the game you come along some multiple choice questions that mold the behavior of the AI you are playing as
- Your two main characters that you are talking to are a scientist back on earth who checks on you and comes sometimes with new directives, and a scientist who came to Mars after you established the basics with a more direct approach to things.
- The game actually also acknowledges Musk's plan to use nukes to raise the temperatures and make Mars more habitable that way. In fact, ou can agree to this, but you can also refuse to do so.
- The name is part of a latin phrase about the stars
#31: Often called the black sheep of this action-adventure series from Nintendo Zelda II: The Adventure of Link, of course. Found by UnderwaterFunktown
- It just got a very enhanced remake on PC that vastly enlarges the game.
- In Japan, this game didn't come out on cartridges, but on the Disk drive.
- Unlike all the other games in the series, this one is a side-scroller.
- And it even came out on a golden cartridge in the west
#30: Your mission here is to build a specific kind of structure for a very specific kind of people.
- And you must ensure that the people stay in that structure, at least as long as they're supposed to.
- To do so, you need build structures to house those people, to entertain them, to feed them, to shower them, to train them so they can work for you for cheap, but most importantly, to keep them from killing each other and especially keep them from rioting or leaving your place without being allowed to.
- Looking around, you can find pictures and schematics from the design process of the game littering around sometimes.
- The art style has been copied by many games since it's 2015 release on PC, like Rimworld for instance.
#28: A turn-based strategy game with Cities to strengthen and defend, structures that give some buffs, ressources lying around and Heroes to fight the monsters along the way. Heroes of Might & Magic IV, also found by UnderwaterFunktown
- In this entry of the series, monsters guarding ressources actually can wander around a bit, so if you get too close they will attack you and not wait until you attack them!
- It has been revered for it's music and storytelling, but most largely prefer the predecessor due to the changes in how you build your cities and unit ranks.
#27: This game had several successors, but everybody agrees that none of them come even close to this entry of the series - though the last entry is at least considered good.
- XEP624 - that's the password to create your own in-game character.
- This game also comes with a sci-fi mode where giant insects start attacking later in the game. You can turn it off, but then you can't upgrade body armor to the best one anymore as these cyptides drop the necessary ingredient for that.
#26: A game set in the Classic (also known as Old) World of Darkness.
- No, it's not Bloodlines. It came out before that game, actually.
- It starts in Medieval Prague and ends in modern New York
#25: A Russian turn-based strategy/RPG with a hint of city builder and several months worth of time to play just to the campaign on the easiest difficulty.
- The story: The planet, whose name is part of the title, has been shattered into many shards. You play as one of the etheral beings that can fuse those shards back together and protect the world from the Chaos wanting to invade and destroy it.
- The "several months to play just the campaign" isn't an exaggeration. Later shards with a size of medium or more needs about the time of an entire civ game to finish unless you get lucky.
#24: A Fantasy Citybuilder in early access with warped versions of the usual fantasy races. For instance, the Orc-like Cretonians are vegetarians and really bad at fighting, while the Elf-like Tilapis are racist cannibals (but also the best babysitters for some reason) and humans are brillant researchers, but prone to crime and insanity. Just the Dwarf-like Dodorians are still similar to their original fantasy race, as they like stone buildings, mining and crafts - but they also can't be born like the other races.
- Still in early access, but just recently got updated to version 0.70
- While it's a city builder, it also handles trading with other empires, as well as expanding your empire by conquering those one by one, sector by sector
#23: In this real-time strategy/rpg, the world has ended, and you need to guide your survivors to survive in a clearing on the woods before looking for clues what actually happened and how to end that mess.
- The world has fallen to an invasion from hell, with imps and lesser demons running around, and later in the game you encounter enemy types like Reapers, Liches, Fallen Angels, Cerebus, Succubi or Werewolfs.
#22: An Adventure Game by Lucasarts where you need to get to the day before the day the game starts.
