What might seem like a pixel-art Age of Empires on the surface, the RTS game TFC: The Fertile Crescent is much more than that and they recently released a major update for the game.
Coldwild Games developers on Luna's Fishing Garden, Merchant of the Skies, Lazy Galaxy 2 and more have announced another peaceful game with Druidwalker.
