Stronghold 2
No to all those guesses.
Maybe it would be more precise to say it’s in continuing development. I think it’s more of a fan project, really, the sort that progresses in fits and starts and may never be “finished”.
Nonetheless, it’s worth playing if you’re a fan of the original series, and I thought it warranted a place here to draw to people’s attention if nothing else.
Settlers 7?
That rock is freaky-familiar.
Yeah, which is partly why I went with Anno (Ubisoft and all).
That’s not 2205. First, it’s been done. Second, I’m currently replaying that (again) and the meat icon looks different.
I’ve come across Endless Sky before but completely ignored it because it’s free, and free games are usually DLC ridden trash aimed at 14 year olds.
But an EV:N clone? Sign me up! (I also knew it wsn’t Transcendence, and that’s the only other EV:N clone I’ve played).
The latest game: Hegemony III: Clash of the Ancients?
Very true. Perhaps we should start a thread for free games that aren’t obnoxious. :)
Hope you enjoy it. I’ll have to look up Transcendence the next time I’m feeling like playing one of these games.
Not that, I’m afraid. Much closer to the correct time period though.
Yeah, it does. But the blue background tricked my memory. Hard. ;)
Grand Ages: Rome?
I think you got it. I knew I had seen that somewhere.
Grand Ages: Rome it is. An interesting and streamlined take on city building (1 residential building provides workers for one other building!), if ultimately a bit repetitive.
@Nightgaunt: well done! All yours.
The way the buildings created a kind of cobblestone foundation under them was really distinctive. So the rock looked familiar (I was thinking Anno, too), but the way the buildings mesh with the ground was the give away.
New screen!
Damn few details so far.
Reminds me of a Lucas arts or Kings quest adventure game
Space Quest 4?
Beneath a Steel Sky?
gobliiins 3?
