Steam's Turn-Based RPG Fest is now live

By -

Another week, another little mini games festival on Steam! This time it's the Turn-Based RPG Fest for you to perhaps find your next favourite.

You know the drill I'm sure by now. It's a genre-focused event to give you discounts, demos and more info on upcoming games. A chance for developers to perhaps cut through the noise a little, which is difficult at times with so many thousands releasing a year.

Quoting: CatKillerI realised partway through the second game that the character I'd created was basically Xena.
You only realized that after one and a half games?
Yeah... Strong, charismatic, good with weapons and first aid but otherwise not too bright. Just how it turned out. Till I noticed, at least, and then I leaned into it.

Quoting: CatKillerI did really enjoy the Shadowrun games on the Deck, so I'd recommend picking those up to anyone that's interested. The individual games are in the sale but the trilogy bundle hasn't had that discount applied and so works out more expensive than getting the games separately.

Shadowrun Hong Kong has a couple borked areas. This one battle on a rooftop locks up my Steam Deck completely and I have to force a restart. It only does this after the battle is over and you go to exit the level at the elevator, but there is no save after the fight so you must redo it every time. I gave up after a half dozen retries.

This is one of my favorite genres, so I'm super pumped about this!! That said, I wouldn't really include any 4x games in these listings, as valve has done, but I guess they think "oh it has turns" so it belongs.

Some of my favs from the sale:

  • Octopath series

  • Zoria (unique aspect of base building)

  • Rogue Trader

  • Pathfinder series (ultra mega complex systems though)

  • Sea of Stars (only the first half, then just stop)

  • Wildermyth (so unique and cool!)

  • Mechanicus

  • Chained Echoes (perfect for Deck)

  • Colony Ship (great but lack of a map is frustrating)

  • Solasta (pretty much the best strict D&D ruleset game)

  • Skald (again - very unique and fun!)
