I’m not sure if this counts as a “patient gamer” because I played them to death years ago…but I’ve been playing both again recently and they’re just perfect little games with a ton of replayability. They’re not retro (FTL 2012, ITB 2018) but they’re old enough to regularly go on sale which is great!
Highly recommended if you like roguelite strategy games.
If you have any similar games to suggest, please leave a comment. I’m sure there’s tons of great strategy games I’ve missed over the years
Cobalt Core is a newish one that’s very inspired by FTL.
Added it to my wishlist! (I’m a patient gamer, after all)
Cobalt Core went on sale and I picked it up - it’s fantastic! Thanks again for the recommendation
Awesome! Glad you’re enjoying it. 😀
