Turn based games tended to be something I sort of stopped getting into as I got older. Despite really enjoying games that involve tons of strategy and thought like Hitman or 13 Sentinels Aegis Rim, I struggled more with games that are turn based. I’ve tried to get back into them with stuff like Pokemon and the occasional board game sim that I play with my friends, but I just know there’s games out there I’d like a lot more.
I do want to give Fire Emblem, Bug Fables, and Sea of Stars a try at some point soon. Was just wondering if there’s anything else I’m missing.
I’m going to reach deep into the goodie bag and suggest one called runestone keeper and another called dunge-a-lot.
On the surface they look like tap tap drool games, but if willing to study the playfield and how it evolves after each move, and do a lot of thinking, they’re both great.
The biggest grievances people have with them is they expect them to be easy, but they are not - you can really go far when you think, but if you just want to tap, you’re dead.
As far as runestone keeper goes, I would only recommend the steam version because the phone based one has changed a couple times and purchases have been lost so fuck that.
