Brutal Orchestra

Companions and relationships

A turn-based roguelike set in Purgatory where you lead a motley crew through tactical, position-based fights in pursuit of petty revenge. Dark humor and a quirky hand-drawn look define the experience.

Netherguild

Resources and survival

A turn-based tactical roguelite where you lead expeditions underground to find a cure for a strange plague. You balance exploring, camping and fighting against knowing when to retreat and resupply.

Iratus: Lord of the Dead

A party of several characters

You play an evil necromancer breaking out of his dungeon prison, commanding a horde of undead in tough turn-based battles. It mixes roguelike runs with a grim comic-style look and plenty of tactical positioning and resource planning.

Massive Chalice

A party of several characters

As an immortal ruler you guide a dynasty of heroes across centuries, arranging marriages, training heirs and sending them into turn-based tactical battles against demonic invaders. The appeal lies in generational management where fallen heroes are permanently lost.

Battle Brothers

A party of several characters

You lead a mercenary company through a gritty, procedurally generated medieval world, juggling contracts, gear and recruits. The turn-based battles are brutal, and losing your men is part of the experience.

The Last Spell

A party of several characters

You defend humanity's last city: at night you fight monster hordes in turn-based tactical combat, by day you fortify defenses and gear up your heroes. The roguelite structure makes every run a fresh set of build and positioning decisions.

Fear & Hunger

Resources and survival

A brutal, bleak turn-based horror RPG set in a deadly dungeon where scarce resources, limb-severing combat and many hidden paths make every decision risky. Survivors uncover disturbing secrets and multiple endings.

The Banner Saga 2

Companions and relationships

A grim Norse caravan journey with turn-based tactical battles, where hard choices and scarce supplies decide who lives or dies. Saves from the first game carry over meaningfully, and the hand-drawn art style is unmistakable.
