Torment: Tides of Numenera

Dialogue and role-playing

A text-heavy RPG set in the strange far-future world of Numenera, serving as a spiritual successor to Planescape: Torment and probing questions of identity and mortality. Conversations and choices matter far more than the rare turn-based combat.

Wasteland 2

Turn-based combat

A classic turn-based party RPG set in a nuclear-ravaged desert, where you lead a squad of Desert Rangers and your decisions noticeably reshape the regions you visit. Tactical combat and a wide skill system give it depth.

Pillars of Eternity

Tactical depth

A love letter to Infinity Engine classics, offering tactical real-time-with-pause party combat, a richly written world built around souls and reincarnation, and a mature, melancholic story. Companions, a stronghold to manage, and meaningful choices make it a deep treat for CRPG fans.

Divinity: Original Sin

Turn-based combat

A classic party RPG built on tactical turn-based fights where elemental combos like fire, water and oil can be chained creatively. It pairs an explorable world full of puzzles and humor with a co-op mode in which the two heroes can even argue over decisions.

Baldur's Gate 3

Dialogue and role-playing

A sprawling D&D-based CRPG where inventive turn-based combat rewards creativity and nearly every decision reshapes the story and your bonds with its superbly written companions.
