An older game that was an attempt of something of an Orcs Must Die or other tower defense game that also allowed you to take the field. Granted given the age this is a little rough but with friends this certainly is still quite a fun time. As of right now there is a fan discord running weekly games, and even pumping out some mods for this title but official support to handle lingering issues with the game due to it's age would be ideal. The world was also fairly interesting even if much of the story needed further fleshing out when it came to the first game. Hard to track down who even owns the game anymore but I'd very much like to see a revival if not the series being picked up again wholesale given the themes, and the darker themes in this tower defense. Not often you get to be morally grey, or leaning more towards the black depending on just how desperate you get in game.
This game was so much fun! I remember playing the demo version on a (if I recall) Game Informer Pro Demo Disk that they would send out. I loved the art style, the lore, and the gameplay.
At the time, my buddy and I would take turns playing Spiral, the demo level, on his computer. We tried to keep upping the difficulty and see how hard we could make it (we failed miserably on Brute LOL). Years later, I remembered the game and saw it got a Steam release so I picked it up and remember playing some matches online. but then died before I could really enjoy the game online.
Every weekend, me and the guys that still play on Steam get together and play! Feel free to check the Steam guides to find our IG Warlord Discord server!

Black & White 2In the game, the player takes the role of a god called from the void (nothingness) to help those who invoked them. However, the player is not an omnipotent style god, but rather a god who rises and falls with his believers and the player must help develop their nature according to their good or evil desires. The player also has a creature, their physical representation in the world, which takes the form of an anthropomorphic ape, lion, wolf, turtle, cow, or tiger. Its physical manifestation can grow to an immense size, and adopt a good or evil persona separate of the player's. They develop their character as the player rewards or punishes their actions. In addition to the god simulation and city-building elements introduced in the original Black & White, Black & White 2 also features elements of real-time strategy gameplay, with the addition of controllable warfare and fighting units.Top Action Fantasy Comedy Sandbox

The third game in the Fallout series, Fallout 3 is a singleplayer action role-playing game (RPG) set in a post-apocalyptic Washington DC. Combining the horrific insanity of the Cold War era theory of mutually assured destruction gone terribly wrong, with the kitschy naivety of American 1950s nuclear propaganda, Fallout 3 will satisfy both players familiar with the popular first two games in its series as well as those coming to the franchise for the first time.Open world Action Science fiction Stealth Sandbox Survival
King's KnightKing's Knight is a fantasy-themed top-down shooter where four heroes have to unite to defeat a dragon and rescue a princess in despair. It was one of the first games published by Square Soft (now one-half of Square Enix). King's Knight is a variation on Konami's Knightmare which sold extremely well.
The first four stages involve you powering up your characters as far as they can go, picking up shields (to increase defense), boots (to increase speed), swords (to increase attack power), and spell icons (which will be required to be held by everyone for the final storm on the castle), defeating monsters along the way. The power-ups are hidden underneath mountains, rocks, and houses. Nearly everything can be shot at and destroyed. The heroes are, in order:
Ray Jack, the Knight, who possesses strong attacking power; Kaliva, the Wizard, who is good with magic and jumping; Barusa, the Monster, who has a strong defense; and Toby, the Thief, who can move swiftly.
It is necessary to keep all four heroes alive for the fifth and final stage, because there are certain points that the group cannot get past if one of the party members has died.Action Fantasy Historical
