Zombie Army 4: Dead War Rebellion Zombie Nazis have always been a pretty popular subgenre in film, which has steadily developed a ravenous (pun intended) cult following over the years. Game developer Rebellion thought it would make sense to make a game series that featured undead Nazis and so they’ve been steadily developing a franchise…
Rebel Inc: Escalation Ndemic Creations I’ve never played Ndemic Creations’ previous game, Plague Inc., which was about crafting deadly pathogens and then releasing them upon the world. It did look interesting though. It sure became a cult hit and lingered at the top of several charts for lengthy periods of time. But that game came…
Tropico 6 – The Llama of Wall Street DLC Limbic Entertainment/Kalypso Media When Tropico 6 debuted in March of 2019, many of us city-building genre fans were really looking forward to it. The Tropico series as a whole has long-established itself as being quite different from other city-builders and city management games. In Tropico games,…
Frostpunk: The Last Autumn DLC 11 bit studios When Frostpunk debuted in 2018, it quickly garnered its fair share of praise from both critics and gamers alike.

The follow up to 2017’s excellent World War 2 RTS, Steel Division: Normandy 44, made gamers who had fallen in love with Eugen System’s new RTS…
Atom RPGAtomTeam Like all classic role-playing games, post-apocalyptic CRPGs seem to be more of a rare occurrence than in their heyday during the 1980s and 90s. As both first-person shooters and massively multiplayer online role-playing games (MMORPGs) became more popular, the classic style of top-down, turn-based (or pause-able real-time) titles seem to lose favor with…
Conglomerate 451 Runeheads / 1C Entertainment The cyberpunk subgenre of science fiction has a history of being popular within the gaming industry. Personally, I recently re-played Deus Ex: Mankind Divided just to get my cyberpunk fix before Cyberpunk 2077 hits us like a lightning bolt from Zeus himself (or maybe Cyber-Zeus?). A small, Italian development…
War of Rights Campfire Games With World War One film, 1917, just around the corner, it’s good to see the Great War getting some attention, instead of WW2. Besides M2H and Blackmill Games’ title, Verdun, you really don’t see many WW1 first-person shooter games out there on the market. The same thing can also be…
