Orc Colony is a pretty cool strategy game where you control a huge colony of orcs underground, kinda like Fallout Shelter.

You mine, build, craft, and complete quests. You can even raid human settlements that are nearby. The game has you building a huge tunnel network as you dig through the earth to find valuable resources in order to craft items. You can mine and build your base in any direction you want, but the best valuables are deep inside the earth and you’ll have to work your way through in order to mine them.

You’ll come across various materials like rocks, silver, copper, iron, mithril, emeralds, and more. You can use them to smelt into gold while the stone can be used as building material for new buildings in order to expand your base. Weapons, armor, and other blueprints can be used to deck out your army in order to raid a human settlement or sold for more cash.

You work under your orc king who’ll give you random quests for your fulfill. If you fulfill them, he’ll be happy. You need to complete these quests to best of your ability because if you don’t, you’re kicked out!

The best part about Orc Colony is definitely the crafting. You need to build as many materials as possible with all the valuables you mine from exploration. You need to them keep goblin porters running as they sustain your colony.

You also need to build various rooms to keep porters and orcs happy, such as butchers, kitchen, piggeries, and other structures in order to keep your colony chugging along. If one thing goes awry, your colony can collapse under its own weight. An example would be no food. If you starve your colony, orcs will leave and never come back. Then you’ll lose your workforce. Then your colony will fall apart piece by piece!

The game is extremely addicting and perfect for anyone who’s into strategy sims. Try out Orc Colony for yourself as the game is still in early access right now before it blows up and they start charging you to play! But by then, you’ll probably be so addicted you’ll have no problem paying for this fresh new strategy game.

Incredible Mandy is an awesome puzzle platforming adventure game that’ll instantly remind you of older classics like Ico.

You play as a dude who has a robot friend on a quest to rescue your sister. You have the power to summon Light Swords which help you solve puzzles, activate gates, and also control a giant robot. The puzzles in the game calls for their usage because you can use them to chain things together. You go through a series of dreams as the brother with 8 original chapters and bosses with a total of about 15 hours of gameplay.

It’s hard to explain, but it offers a very unique way to solve puzzles that I’ve never come across yet. The robot is like a secondary character that’ll help you out when needed by moving platforms around so you can progress through the level.

So far, it’s just in a demo phase and the controls are a bit annoying to deal with. But it shows some nice foundation and a very unique puzzle system that doesn’t work like typical puzzle adventure games. It’s worth playing just for the uniqueness of it.

Ruben’s Puppets is an RTS game that combines third-person action.

The game is loosely based on RTS games where you build up a huge army and send them out to destroy hordes of enemies. In this game, you don’t necessarily do that, but it works in a different way that’s very indirect. You need to build up puppets and send them out to fight with a mix of third-person gameplay.

You explore an old puppet workshop in first-person and get to see some of the cool designs they came up with. The world is colorful and the graphics are very attractive. The game uses some simple and cartoony fantasy animations that you’d expect from a Disney movie or something.

You’ll then see a talking puppet and its assistant who lets you know that you need to rescue the master because he’s been imprisoned by one of his followers when he got addicted to his puppets. You need to enter the puppet world and build up an army of puppets and bring back the puppet maker.

The game then switches to a third-person perspective and you need to help find the master by aiding wooden puppets to fight the evil tin ones. There’s a huge war going on and you’re the one to make a difference. You’re armed with a bow which can be used to break stuff and collect coins to build more units. You don’t control units or anything, it’s very loosely based on RTS like I said above.

The game is sitll in alpha and it’s pretty awesome. It’s about half an hour of playtime and you can dive into a fairy tale world that’ll remind you of Pinnochio.

It has a nice storyline, a detialed and lush fantasy enviorment, and a nostalgic adventure feeling that brings back the old-school N64 days. The RTS elements and combat systme work nicely together and the whole concept is rather unique. Ruben’s Puppets is worth taking a shot at.

The Juice of God’s Future is a dark fantasy indie game that offers an atmospheric and immersive experience.

The game takes place in the far future where the entire world is overpopulated. To solve that, an evil mastermind corporation has been established. What do they do? Well, it’s pretty dark. You’ll have to play the game to find out.

Without spoiling the game (too much), the game is an extremely simple game. It only involves one animated scene in a dark and damp factory. The factory was made to “take away” people who don’t contribute to society. The background has moving belts and machinery like you’d see at a soda-bottling plant, except in a very twisted and inhumane manner.

The atmosphere is damp and dark. The machinery sounds come in a repeating manner. And the inhabitants each present themselves with their best quality in one sentence. The artwork looks like something from the Oddworld series.

You’re the controller and you decide who plays an important role in society and who doesn’t.

Every choice you make affects society overall- you can see real-time stats like intelligence, creativity, and happiness. Depending on whether or not you choose to “drink up,” you decision alter these stats. You get 3 reports total and your goal is to max out all of the stats by making the right decisions!

At the end of the third report, you can see your final score. If you made the right meaningful choices, you’ve contributed to bettering society overall. If not, you’re only adding to the problem and should “drink up” yourself!

If you’re in for a refreshing take on fourth-wall decision making in a dark fantasy world, try out The Juice of God’s Future. It’s a simple yet depressing game at the same time.

(And Happy Pi Day to all our readers! 3.14!)

Once Upon a Coma is an immersive and adorable indie adventure game that’s currently trending like crazy.

It’s a sidescrolling dark and mysterious themed game based on a simple plot. You play as a character named Pete and you just woke up from a coma and have no idea what you’re doing or where you are. Sure, it sounds like any other game at this point. But keep reading.

Your sister has gone missing and you hear violent screams in the heart of Black Wood- a fantasy world with bare trees, forests, streets, and fields all twisted in a dreamlike fashion. You need to uncover the story and mystery behind Pete’s history and also explore the violent behavior of the “grown-ups” all in a dark and haunted world. It’s truly an adventure of the ages.

The first thing you’ll notice about the game is the gorgeous graphics and artwork. It’s a blend of fantasy with a touch of realism done in a way that really immerses you into its twisted world. You’ll feel like you’re playing in the world of The Nightmare Before Christmas in Jack Skellington’s shoes or something. It’s that well done.

The game is mainly a series of small quests that involve some basic puzzle solving and exploration. There’s minimal dialog other than some clues that pertain to the main story. Most of the game is simply exploring the dark world through 10 different fantasy worlds.

You’ll also have to combat many different monsters that range from spiders to grown-ups. The game has you simply equipped with a barber’s small knife which you use to cut up everything in your path. It’s more about the exploration than the combat though, so the fighting scenes are pretty easy.

There are also a few platforming elements where you’ll need to jump gaps or scale objects. You may also have to dodge and evade some terrifying enemies as well. Of course, you’ll have your childhood pals and even your pet to join you on your adventure to discover your history.

Without spoiling the game, the game is a premium quality adventure that we definitely need more of. The sound is simple and effective and the soundtrack is a blend of softening piano-centered melodies mixed with soft percussion. The artwork is probably the best part of the game. Exploring the worlds while immersed in the gorgeous artwork is just mesmerizing while you solve puzzles and progress through the storyline. It’s truly an adventure to behold.

Once Upon a Coma supports Xbox controllers and PS4 controllers on Windows as well- for those who can’t play adventure games using a keyboard and mouse.

If you like the game, support the dev on Kickstarter. It’s planned to be avialable on Steam and Nintendo Switch. Try out the demo using the link below and start your fantasy adventure!

Legion: The Eternal War is an awesome new MMORPG that takes place in (another) Lord of the Rings-type world.

It’s pretty much another game that wages the war between Elves and Humans.

However, this time around, there’s another force that has risen because of the torn planet due to the war. The two races have been so focused on each other that they totally let a newer, more powerful force arise that’s destructive to both of them.

This fifty-year war allowed their leaders to be killed by this unknown faction. The game has you playing in a world that’s been torn apart between three factions in a chaotic environment.

Storyline aside, it’s pretty much another MMORPG. There are hundreds of these types of clones out there, but only a few are actually quality games and offer something new to the table (that works). Legion: The Eternal War has you playing as a wandering traveler who can choose between the two factions to form allies with.

The game is heavily combat-based with melee, ranged, and mana magic-based fights against other players, mobs, and NPCs (from what’s expected). It has a pretty sophisticated weapon, shields, and armor system as well. Your equips can lose durability at a specific part rather than the entire piece from what it looks like.

The game also doesn’t just throw out experience points for killing an enemy. You’ll have to use skills and get rewarded based on your combat performance. For example, if you use a sword to kill an enemy, you’ll be rewarded skill points for your sword. It’s kinda like Morrowind.

As of now, Legion: The Eternal War is nothing but an alpha game that’s coming out for beta soon. You can sign up early to grab a key.

This game does have some nice things going for it- detailed environments, a sophitcated equip system, and an awesome skill and level system as well. And it’s got some storyline behind it as well. Sign up for a key if RPGs are your thing. You’ll probably wnat to try this one out.

The Immortal Rift is an awesome new MMORPG rolling out soon and is currently in closed beta (but accepting applicants).

You’ll have to supply your computer’s CPU and GPU in order to join, but this MMO looks like a very promising new title instead of the typical clones you see floating around nowadays.

It allows you to forge your own story in its vast and huge world, rather than having every player following the same chained quests. If you’ve played and enjoyed older classics like Ultima Online and RuneScape, you’ll probably dig The Immortal Rift.

It lets players explore its huge world and do all the typical stuff you’d find in an RPG- quests, PvP, PvE, guilds, an auction house, and typical storyline stuff. You can explore the world, discover new lands and cities, and also even distinct cultures between cities.

The Immortal Rift has some pretty unique features up its sleeve though (well, not completely unique- but not that common).

For instance, the game lets you craft items like a survival game rather than an RPG. It also has player housing which you can completely build up yourself. Instead of placing items inside a templated house, you have to build it from scratch- or at least that’s what the screenshots look like. There are even custom storytelling tools and an unstructured economy.

The game also encourages role-playing as well.

Then there’s the naval warfare part. It seems like this is a huge bragging point for the game. You’ll be able to fight other players over water based on the available images so far.

The game is like an updated version of RuneScape. It’s heavily skill-based (as in you need to grind it out) from what it appears like. With over 20 combat and crafting skills, you’ll have plenty to grind out. There is also no class restriction so you can build your character freely.

The lands you explore also look awesome- everything from islands to forests to swamps all look awesome with floating energy and fairies in its mystical world. Giant mushroom-like buildings, trees, camel hybrids, and even wizards in robes all run around the world.

The PvP mode also looks pretty tempting as well. It features open-world combat so you can be attacked at any time.

The Immortal Rift is available for beta right now. If you like fantasy RPGs, you should try this game out.

Ascent: Infinite Realm (A:IR) is a fantasy steampunk MMORPG game that looks amazingly beautiful.

It’s being developed by Bluehole- the team behind other epic RPGs like Tera Online and the infamous PUBG. A:IR is an MMO where you play as a character in a world with dinosaurs, giant reptiles, and dragons. Combine that with huge warships, machinery, and magical abilities. You get yourself an epic RPG that’ll be something extraordinary.

The game is still relatively early in development, so there’s not much footage of it online. From what we’ve seen, it looks like a game that’s going to be big. If the action and excitement look as good as the images on the ‘net, this game could be the next big RPG.

(If you’re a Let’s Player, it’s your chance to get into a possible giant early.)

The game features a third-person camera complete with a combat system for melee, ranged, and magic. It looks like it combines magical abilities with steampunk machinery. Spell-based combat, weapons, and melee attacks are all present in the images. The game also looks like it’ll have giant-scale battles and raids involving different factions. Shoot down enemy dragons and invade other camps using your own. You can fly on giant dragons and glide through the sky.

What’s known so far is that Ascent: Infinite Realm will have at least 5 classes that are pretty typical in the RPG world. You can choose from a Gunslinger, Assassin, Mystic, Sorceress, and Warlord. Each class will have unique abilities and skills. You can also wield primary and secondary weapons as well. The game will feature lots of ways to get around- like jetpacks and gliders (and dragons).

AI:R also seems to have an emphasis on moving in packs. Whether you’re on a dragon, airship, or air vehicle, you move together with your party or faction. A lot of the action looks like air-based, so this makes for an interesting RPG that’s pretty unique. There are some huge wars that are taking place in the sky. Given that the game plans to have 40 player arenas, we’re pretty sure that large-scale wars are confirmed.

The game looks very impressive with its graphics. It’ll probably also have all the leverage it needs to get traction early on from other games like Tera and PUBG. The game will have a huge playerbase at the start. If it’s good, it’ll become a hit.

You can sign up for beta by using the link below. This could be the next viral game.

Okay, so this is one of those games that are too cute to resist playing.

Stuck in a Pig is a cute, childish, and charming game where you play the role of a tiny pig on a farm. You’re a pig on the outside, but you’re a bull on the inside. You feel like you don’t belong on this farm, along with your farm-mates and human caretakers. You feel like you need to travel.

The owners and other animals feel like you’re just screwing around. Your own ideas get you in major trouble. No pig should feel like a bull…right? No one on the plantation takes you seriously. This only furthers your need to escape. And that’s exactly what you do.

You make a great escape to find yourself. Discover yourself. But…

Your bull helmet was taken from you. You need to make a new one before you can escape.

Stuck in a Pig is just a simple novel with cute graphics. The art style is very nice and the characters are very wacky. Exploring the farm and interacting with all the NPCs makes the game a sit-down-and-relax type. You know…the type of game you play after a day at work with a drink. There’s a sense of humor to it and the game will make you smile.

Give it a try with a full download below.Stuck in a Pig makes a quick playthrough with a cute storyline and cute characters. Perfect for Let’s Players or those who want to just have a good time for some cheap thrills.
