Do you love the sand of the circus ring as much as the gentle rattling of gears? Victorian London and Carnival inspire you? Then be sure to check out the new role-playing game Circus Electrique! In this little gem of steampunk you manage a circus full of fire breathers, muscle men and clowns.
Not only do they have to enchant the audience with great performances, they also have to solve mysterious murder cases and find out why the citizens of London are suddenly going crazy. Think of it a bit like the challenging Darkest Dungeon, only with circus elements.

In Roadwarden your imagination is in demand. The role-playing game relies almost entirely on texts to tell its gripping story. Illustrations are just nice companions, but the story of a lone wanderer really only takes place in letter form. Just right for old school fans!
A run lasts around ten to fifteen hours, during which you roam a dangerous fantasy world, meet other characters and make important decisions. If you’re not sure whether the atmospheric text RPG is really something for you, then just try these free demo on Steam out.

Isonzo puts you in the middle of World War I, one of the cruellest and greatest wars in history. From the first person you experience important battles in the Italian Alps. You choose one of six classes, such as officer, engineer or sniper, then engage in 24vs24 player battles. But you have much more to do than just shoot at your opponents with different weapons: Isonzo also requires a lot of tactics.
For example, you must capture important key objectives or prevent the enemy from breaching a fortification. Battles take place in several phases. Be careful, because Isonzo values realism. A single shot can send you to your grave. Expert Christian explains why the game is still ideal for hardcore shooter newcomers:
