Battle Brothers is a gritty 2D turn-based tactical RPG where you lead a group of mercenaries through a low-power medieval fantasy world. With procedurally generated storylines, intense battles, and a unique combat system, this game offers countless hours of addicting gameplay. Get ready to conquer enemies, loot their camps, and train and equip your men to gain a satisfying sense of accomplishment. But beware, the game is also known for its high level of difficulty and frustrating challenges that can make it time-consuming.

  • Addictive gameplay
  • Intense tactical battles
  • Satisfying sense of accomplishment
  • Unique turn-based combat system
  • Appealing medieval theme
What could be improved:

The Banner Saga 2 is a gripping Norse-inspired fantasy adventure that engages you with its exceptional narrative and captivating art direction. The game features a turn-based combat system that challenges your strategic thinking, new creatures and obstacles, and battles resolved through primary objectives rather than max-murdering the other side. Make difficult decisions that can lead to starvation, mutiny or death, while defying traditional conventions and rejecting typical rules of morality. The sequel is a must-play, with vastly improved combat, deep and rewarding narrative, and an immersive visual and sound design.
