Oblivion hardly needs any introduction, as it’s clearly the headlining game here. In this open-world RPG, players must resolve the Oblivion Crisis in Cyrodiil before it’s too late. Players can customize their own classes, use magic and melee in first-person, work with a ton of factions, and tons more. If anyone hasn’t played it, now’s the time. After all, it seems some features of Oblivion are working their way into Starfield, if updated of course.
One of the most favored entries in the Plants vs. Zombies franchise, Battle for Neighborville is a multiplayer shooter where players can join matches consisting of 24 players online. There are unique character classes to play and about 6 PvP modes too. There’s a co-op free roam mode as well, and the game features in-depth customization options for every character, the 20 zombie and plant classes, and so on. This game is dumb fun, the very definition of it in fact.
A faithful re-imagining of a classic LucasArts game, this version introduces new ways to explore Monkey Island through the eyes of Guybrush Threepwood and his nemesis zombie pirate LeChuck. The game features a ton of challenges, new enemies, old friends, and more. Improvements made include HD graphics, better voice-over, renewed score, a better gaming interface, hint system, object highlighting, and far more.
As its name would suggest, Nanotale – Typing Chronicles is a game played by typing, through the lens of an adventure RPG. Players are a novice archivist named Rosalind who is collecting samples of nature, mystical beauties, and so on coming from a war far in the past. Players can combine magic spells for combat, use them on the environment, and make new discoveries about the world around them—and the more they know, the stronger they are.
Guild of Ascension is a cutesy tactical action RPG, combining rogue-lite elements, a turn-based and real-time hybrid combat system, and standard RPG elements like weapons, skills, critters, and so on. Players will embark on their ascension through a tower, where they will constantly fight major bosses. It’s not necessarily anything groundbreaking, but it’s a solid free game that all rogue-lite and action RPG fans would do well to check out.
The name is wild, but the game itself is even wilder. Touting serious Stardew Valley vibes, Turnip Boy Commits Tax Evasion players take on the role of a Turnip who has been evicted from their home and must somehow pay their debt back to Mayor Onion. The game is filled with vegetables and fruits, puzzles, hilarious combat, and so on—and a mystery involving a corrupt vegetable government. There are massive fights, tax evasion, petty crimes, dungeons, tons of tax documents to destroy, and multiple endings—based on tax evasion.
Galaxy of Pen and Paper is set in 1999, bringing that classic and pixelated vibe to an otherwise standard turn-based RPG. It is heavily similar to games like Dungeons and Dragons, as players will make their own GM and build a party, too. They’ll have to explore several campaigns, master their character builds, explore a variety of planets and galaxies, and to top it all off, Galaxy of Pen and Paper has a dice mechanic to create that tabletop feel. Indeed, it sounds like it’s perfect for any tabletop fans who want a digital adventure.
In House of 1000 Doors: Family Secrets, players take on the role of Kate Reed as she enters the House of 1000 Doors and has to solve a variety of puzzles and mysteries through click and point gameplay. The game features a total of 90 locations and 25 mini-games, and it’s very much a throwback of sorts to classic click and point titles of early PC gaming.
