It’s such an overcrowded genre isn’t it? I mean it’s ridiculous how many top down games there are out there… I’ve played so many now, they just blend into each other.
Are there any top down games that do something different (or the same but really really well). For example, my last really positive experiences with this format were Desperados 3 and Shadow Gambit The Cursed Crew.
This one feels a bit more like Risk in space and I never got on with Risk, or in fact any of the Civ series of games, which this also reminds me of a bit. I sort of meant top down in the Desperadoes 3 style but I’m totally open to other ideas :)
Ah, I gitchu bru!
I really liked Commandos 2 and 3, which look similar. Did you ever play them? There were modernized remasters recently too.
Also, Shadow Tactics maybe?
