1 – Against the Storm
Just in case you haven’t heard about one of the best-rated strategy games of all time, Against the Storm is a roguelike city-builder where the player acts as a vice-roy for the Scorched Queen and must constantly be expanding into new territories to send newfound riches to the Capital. Its roguelike nature is synonymous with starting new settlements from scratch, over and over again. Yes, Against the Storm built a game around the most exciting parts of a city-builder, which is the starting of something new, figuring out how your city fits together, and making sure food, materials, and luxury goods are being delivered. You’ll constantly be building new towns in several different biomes, each with its own challenges to tackle. Against the Storm is not only one of the best city-builders ever, but it’s also one of the best roguelites and one of the best strategy games of all time.
