Ever wish that Disco Elysium had more minotaurs and more steampunk? Check out Sovereign Syndicate

In 2019, Disco Elysium took the gaming world by storm and showed how RPGs could focus much more on storytelling and do a much better job of emulating the feeling of playing at a tabletop. Now we're just starting to see the first wave of games that seem clearly inspired by Disco Elysium, and this one just might be the first must-play RPG of 2024. This is Sovereign Syndicate, a CRPG being made by a small indie team in Canada. Like Disco Elysium, it's an RPG that's more heavily focused on narrative and dialogue, but it also sets itself apart in some key ways. For one, it's got a unique Victorian steampunk setting that looks absolutely fantastic. Fantasy creatures like minotaurs, dwarves, and cyclopes are mixed together with grimy factories, smokestacks, and zeppelins. And it all takes place in London!

Would you kill a princess to save the world? Slay the Princess is game about impossible choices

SHOULD I PLAY SLAY THE PRINCESS? If you have even a passing interest in choice-based games, Slay the Princess is a must-play. When the game begins, you’re on a path towards a cabin hidden deep in the woods. When you reach that cabin, you’ll find a princess, and when you meet her, a mysterious voice tells you that she’s destined to end the world. Will you slay her, or will you save her? It’s a simple enough question, but somehow, the game stretches it to endless possibilities. What happens if you start to save her, but change your mind? What if you don’t go to the cabin at all?

One sentence to summarize the quality of the game: This is the only game to actually get me to cry at a story and character deaths. The game is a realistic feeling and look into a torn apart world. Most characters react in a way you expect them to, no matter how gruesome it gets. Even if you have watched someone play this game, it is something you have to experience for yourself. 10/10 would cry again

The game where we all played, most of us, and the game's been gone for 2 decades i think, there are horror, casual, PvP, shooter, Tycoons, etc. Although the game's great i think the graphics a little bit simple, and i can't play on my pc, but all thoughts, opinion, i think this game gets a 4, the creativity is endless, let the age match the experience, but sometimes there's kids in vc's.

This mix of Dungeons & Dragons and gacha is like a much better Raid: Shadow Legends

I've probably played and reviewed at least two or three dozen different gacha games at this point, but every once in a while I still manage to be really surprised and impressed by one. Dragonheir: Silent Gods is one of the most immediately intriguing and captivating gacha games I've played in ages, and one that I'm definitely planning to stick with. The first thing to know about Dragonheir is that every part of it is openly inspired by tabletop RPGs like Dungeons & Dragons. In fact, the PC version of the game has even done an official collaboration with D&D! In gameplay that terms, that means characters inspired by classic western fantasy, challenging tactical battles, and

here.This game is an entirely text based rpg. It has good writing and good controls. Unlike tthe other nominations this game doesn't have stuff like animation to prop it up, I nominate this game because I feel the writing and the few in game illustrations shown is able to compete with the other AAA game nominations.

This might be the darkest visual novel we've ever seen

Everyone knows how fairy tales are supposed to go: The princess is kidnapped and locked away in a dungeon, and a brave hero comes along to save her and defeat whatever great evil was keeping her captive. Except what if it wasn't that simple? What if it was the princess herself that was the great evil? That's the question being asked by Slay the Princess, the upcoming visual novel from developer Black Tabby Games. In this game, you play as the brave hero, of course, but as the title suggests, you've actually been sent to

Danganronpa fans, take note: A new killing game is about to begin!

We're huge fans of the twisty storytelling and gruesome deaths of the Danganronpa series of visual novels, but there hasn't been a new mainline entry since 2017's Danganronpa V3. With that in mind, we're starting to look elsewhere to get our fix of kidnapped innocents placed into a dastardly game of death. Luckily, we don't have to wait much longer for a game that looks like it might just fill that void.

Warzone mobile is the best game of 2023

Warzone mobile is the best game uploaded in 2023, the graphics are absolutely gorgeous, the game runs great on my HTC Thunderbolt absolutely crushes the perfromance I got on my Acer Aspire 5743 when playing on the PC version. It even looks better than the PC version did on my Acer laptop! I cannot believe just how bad PC Games are!The gunplay is great and is far superior to that of the PC version, infact all of the mechanics are better than that "Game." The game has a lot of cool cosmetics that look better on the mobile version than on the PC version too. It is better than the Tencent Crap that is Codm mobile, it even runs better and looks better than that.I would recommend this game to any true mobile gamer.

Game of Thrones on your phone? Court intrigue game Yes, Your Grace is now on mobile

SHOULD I PLAY YES, YOUR GRACE? Check it out if you like choice-based games and court intrigue. Yes, Your Grace is a kingdom management RPG where you respond to requests from your loyal—and not-so-loyal—subjects. There aren’t enough resources to give everyone what they need, and that means making some tough decisions. If you’re a fan of Reigns or similar titles, you should definitely give this a try.

Post-apocalyptic survival Extreme survival game and environment grade where survival is for the fittest. However, it is not always about using force, you must also use intelligence to survive day to day, night to night of nocturnal predators and other survivors that stalk the immense map. This is where the story of Emberland begins, a place where a virus invades people's minds, transforming them into the living dead... it is unknown where it came from, but scientists find a mysterious rock and call it "Ember"

MINDS BENEATH US REVIEW - A THRILLER OF MORAL CHOICES!

Whether you appreciate games for their storylines, world-building, or exciting action sequences, their capacity to entice you into their intricate worlds is often times a very challenging ordeal, especially when they are presented in a visually simple way, there are a variety of reasons why I could see you really getting into the M.B.U universe. Although there were times when the gameplay was slow, and I mean very slow, I truly appreciated everything that the game had to offer as a morally right/wrong choice.

The Life is Strange devs shift from reality to fantasy - Harmony: The Fall of Reverie Quick Review

PLAY IT OR SKIP IT? Play it if you’re a fan of visual novels or narrative-driven games. Harmony: The Fall of Reverie is a choice-based game from the developers of Life Is Strange, and while it doesn’t quite capture that game’s slice-of-life magic, it still tells a rich and fascinating story. Set in the not-too-distant future, Harmony follows Polly, a seemingly ordinary woman who returns to her hometown after her mother goes missing. Before she can start her search, Polly discovers that she’s actually an oracle that can travel to a magical realm called Reverie and see the future before it unfolds. Now, she must use her newfound power to make tough decisions and restore balance to two very different worlds.

World of Horror is the closest thing to a Junji Ito story in game form, and it's finally almost done

We're always looking for the perfect game for the Halloween season, and it doesn't get much more perfect than World of Horror. In the works for years now, World of Horror is like a love letter to everything about the horror genre—but with a special focus on the unsettling body horror of manga artist Junji Ito and the unspeakable cosmic horror of author H.P. Lovecraft. What's most amazing about World of Horror is what it accomplishes with so little, though. The visuals are extremely lo-fi—in fact, the game's black-and-white art was literally created using MS Paint! Despite those humble tools, though, solo developer Panstasz has created some memorable and truly disturbing imagery.

A decent game but kinda basic it's missing that something

Pros You won't be able to create a character. The game is choosing for you with name/image/attributes Graphics are kinda old school and neat If you die you can resurrect by either using gems or an AD There are some choices that have some impact like when you meet the elf that helps you (Irelle) kill the giant and later down the road you can choose to side either with elves or pioneers and your 'friend' is in there also plus Majet that helped you kill The spider woman quest You can marry her if you do it right too

A roguelite deckbuilding dungeon-crawler. Better than other deck-building roguelikes/roguelites (Pirates Outlaws, Dawncaster, Night of the Full Moon, Phantom Rose Scarlet, Meteorfall, Void Tyrant, Spellswords, etc.). Easier to replace cards, choose path within dungeon, visit shrines (to heal HP or remove curses) located at different paths. Have partner system; you don't fight alone any more. Deep customization on deck playstyle, runes on cards (adds extra effect), character talents, buffs/debuffs passives, character class, & 1-use items.

Starfield is a buggy, frustrating mess, but I love it anyway

Starfield is a pile of mismatched puzzle pieces that don’t quite fit together. That might sound like harsh criticism, but there are plenty of times when its disjointed nature works in the game’s favor. There are a million things to do in Starfield at any given point in time, so when one aspect of the game wasn’t working for me, I could just focus on something else. Directing my attention towards a specific gameplay mechanic or subplot usually made

As a big fan of Witcher 3 and the card game within the game I love the GWENT mobile game. Now ALSO as a fan of roguelites, adding that into the GWENT structure is a brilliant idea where each run, EVERY choice matters. Restore mana or get a card? Level up your wizard or snag that legendary beast that fits well into your deck? #Bestchoicebasedgames contender for sure.
