Imagine Xcom in 2D but in medival fantasy setting where magic is very uncommon, where world is very unforgiving and your experience is a difference between life and death of your whole company of men.

That is what Battle Brothers is. Open-world turn-based very addicting game of building the fame of your company from the ground. I cannot count how many times I had to reload my game to not loose my favourite men, until I realised that I should live with the consequences of my actions and accept losses as they are. You learn from your mistakes and when you finally get to the point where your company is able to take bigger challenges you are really proud of what you and your men achieved.

DLCs do add quite a lot of flavour to the game and for people looking for even more challenge is The Legends mod, which I fully recommend. This game was also insipiration for a new game called Wartales.

It is truly a labour of love and unique experience that I cannot recommend enough.

Omg, sounds so cool! I love 2D games and turn-based strategy is my jam. Medieval fantasy is always a win! Gonna have to check this out. Definitely gonna try that Legends mod, too. You got me
