Ive been trying some indie developed games this past year, more than ever and I’m in awe what lone devs or small teams can accomplish.

So, what are some games that you think don’t have the recognition they deserve, need a bigger audience or you would like the community to try.

I myself for example have played Monster Sanctuary, which at this point I think is not that hidden anymore and played a rougelike game called Elona, haven’t played RimWorld or Dwarf Fortress but I might in the future.

Sorry if a similar post already exists haven’t checked.

    Symphony of War: The Nephilim Saga

    I’ll say up front that it’s a niche game and isn’t for everyone. This is especially true because most of its aspects outside of the gameplay are pretty unremarkable. But if this is your thing, it’s really your thing.

    What makes it so special is that its core gameplay loop is a very satisfying meld of Fire Emblem and Ogre Battle - essentially a turn-based strategy RPG where you control semi-autonomous squads instead of individual characters. And if that description made you perk up just by reading it, you need to go buy this game ASAP.

    Now, if that description didn’t immediately pique your interest, I’d check out some gameplay videos instead. Because it fills such an obscure niche, it’s actually hard to know if you’ll like this game just from a brief description. There’s a good chance you’ve never played anything like this, and it will scratch an itch you never knew you had.
