Not for the faint of heart, this game is truly brutal in the best way. Anyone who dies stays dead. There is no reloading to fix your mistakes. To reach your goal, you will climb a wall of corpses.

A rare gem among RPGs and one of the few games where you are not just 'good' or 'evil' and where your choices truly matter and shape the world around you. Nobody in this game lacks layers or depth.

A unique "poke the sleeping bear" type game where you are the underdog and have to win back the galaxy bit by bit or die to an overwhelming enemy force.

An older, yet still excellent, HOI game. The best reason to get this is Kaiserreich, a great alternate history mod set in a Germany won WW1 scenario.

A great WW2 grand strategy game. Control every part of your country in a massive globe spanning war. You control of everything from troops to industry.

Among the best space strategy games I've ever played. Paradox has outdone itself. The organic story and exploration focus make this game great

Colonizing new worlds and building my military to conquer other empires is super fun. Go from being a nobody to ruling the galaxy. Pirates suck, though.

Has a unique atmostphere. Play as a country in europe in the 15th century and try to achieve your goals. Can do anything from colonizing Asia to trade.

One of the first RPGs I ever played. Unique in a way few games are. Less of an rpg and more of a space opera. Has one of the best stories in gaming.

Played over 350 hours and loved it. The combo of rpg and strategy elements create a unique atmosphere where the story is your own and is crafted by you.
