Party Hard has recently released for Linux, and it looks like a pretty interesting game. You need to infiltrate your noisy neighbours parties, and kill them.
The Escapists isn’t a game I’ve played before, since the first game isn’t on Linux (yet), but The Escapists: The Walking Dead is now on Linux and our friends at GOG sent me a key.
Harebrained Schemes are doing pretty well for themselves with their RPG games, and now they are going back to BATTLETECH with a new Kickstarter. Support has poured in, and it's funded already.
Crookz - The Big Heist is a game that came out of nowhere for me. I remember a live action trailer announcing the game a long time ago, then nothing until a free demo popped up a little over a week before the game's release. I wound up playing the demo and enjoyed it enough that I scooped up the full game.
Grand Ages: Medieval is a blend of many different strategy games, but is it any good? Thanks to our friends at Kalypso Media I got the chance to try it today.
Good news, the developer of Banished is blogging again and it's still progressing. I'm still really excited to give the highly rated harsh city builder a try.
Triumph Studios has just released Age of Wonders v1.7, and with it comes a much anticipated feature in the form of user-created modding, including brand new units, heroes, classes, races and gameplay mods, along with a ton of stability fixes and balancing work.
It's good to see another game from OrangePixel, as I previously tried their Heroes of Loot which didn't hit any notes for me. Luckily, Space Grunts is hitting the right ones.
XCOM: Enemy Unknown is easily one of the best strategy games ever in my eyes, so if you haven't tried it I seriously think you should try it since it's free for a weekend. Also, XCOM 2 looks like it will be a day-1 release.
