Best Strategy Games (2026)

If Satisfactory felt too punishing and Factorio too flat, Foundry sits in a chill middle ground - though that same comfort might be its ceiling for veteran factory builders.

A 2017 indie adventure-RPG that blends strategy and storytelling in a compact package, obscure enough that you've probably never heard of it, but worth a look if you like character-driven narratives.

Five Infinity Engine CRPGs in one bundle: the full Bhaalspawn saga across Baldur's Gate 1, Siege of Dragonspear, and BG2, plus Planescape: Torment and Icewind Dale. Hundreds of hours of AD&D, no filler skipped.

Fifteen party games across three packs, all controlled from any phone or browser - the only real question is whether your group chat is ready for Trivia Murder Party 2 at midnight.
