Welcome to my blog. I talk about strategy games and more. Stay a while and check out my stuff. I'd be happy to hear from you.
There’s a new story trailer for the recently released free DLC for Frostpunk, Fall of Winterhome. No surprises, it sounds bleak. There’s some cool info about the scenario in a new dev diary video.
I wrote about the repetition problem in my review of Two Point Hospital. Update 1.04 somewhat addresses that by giving you the option of copying rooms. You don’t need to recreate rooms all over again every time now.
Two Point Hospital is the spiritual successor to the classic hospital management game by Bullfrog Productions, Theme Hospital. Does it capture the charm and brilliance of the original? Read on for my review.
Yes you heard me correctly! 11 Bit Studios announced that they will be releasing ‘Fall of Winterholm’. They’re calling it a free expansion that goes live for everyone that owns Frostpunk on September 19th.
Paradox Interactive has published a brand new video that gives an overview of the Vanguard faction in Age of Wonders: Planetfall. They are a human faction trying to reclaim the hostile world for the Star Union.
Amplitude Studios has released a free update for everyone that owns Endless Space 2. This free update adds 7 variants of renegade fleet skins to give you more customisation options for your ships.
I’ve been totally hooked to tycoon games these days with the release of Two Point Hospital. It really does seem like the tycoon genre is making a bit of a comeback. One game that has caught my eye is Overcrowd… and I’ve never seen anything with its setting.

I've written about the announcement of Jagged Alliance: Rage! here. Today, we've got confirmation that it will be released for the PC on September 27th, and the PS4 & Xbox One on November 6th.
Stardock is calling Star Control: Origins an action-adventure RPG which makes it not so much a strategy game. But it is of interest to me as it is said to have a living universe where things are happening without your input.
There’s been a lack of real-time strategy game of late. But what we’ve seen in this strategy sub-genre is a trend in RTS-lite games that are more casual affairs. Circle Empires is such a game that offers a simplified spin on the RTS genre. Does that lead to a fun RTS experience? Read on for my review…
I've been following the development of Dharma for a few months now and it's turning out to be a major improvement over the existing Europa Universalis IV. Want to know what's new? Check out this video.

In particular the religion mechanic from Total War: ATTILA. Dubbed the Allegiance Update, it adds new mechanics, improvements and fixes to Total War Saga: Thrones of Britannia.
Eugen System's Steel Division 2 just got a brand new trailer. This time, a proper in-game trailer, but not quite gameplay trailer yet.

Publishers, Focus Home Interactive has revealed that Space Hulk: Tactics will be coming out for the PC on 9th October this year. It is billed to be a faithful adaptation of the board game classic... with a twist.
Yes, I couldn't believe it either. But apparently, some people want this. Or perhaps someone in Paradox wanted this. You'll be able to play Stellaris on the PS4 and Xbox One.
We, the Total War fans have been clamouring for a China Total War for ages, I remember enthusiastic discussions about it after the release of Medieval Total War back in 2002, in fan forums and even the official Total War forum. Now, that we've got our wish fulfilled, something about Total War: THREE KINGDOMS just doesn't feel right.
