#1
BattleTech
78
Shared: Campaign Progression, Mod-Friendly
Giant mechs, brutal turn-based tactics, and a surprisingly rich mercenary campaign set in the classic BattleTech universe. Think XCOM but heavier, slower, and more punishing.

#2
Banished
73
Shared: Mod-Friendly
A brutal, minimalist city-builder where your only resource is people. One bad winter can erase decades of careful planning.
from €5.61·Compare prices →
#3
Stellaris
78
Shared: Mod-Friendly
Put 50 hours in before you see the cracks, and 500 before you stop caring about them. Stellaris is the deepest space grand strategy on PC, but the DLC wall and a shaky 4.0 patch make the entry point complicated right now.
from €5.13·Compare prices →
#4
Crusader Kings II
82
Shared: Mod-Friendly
Free to download and genuinely 200+ hours deep, CK2 is the grand strategy game that made dynasty management addictive long before its sequel arrived. Start small or lose fast.
from €1.82·Compare prices →
#5
Victoria 3
81
Shared: Mod-Friendly
Paradox's most ambitious society-builder finally earned its 'Mostly Positive' badge after years of post-launch patching. If your brain runs on supply chains and political theory, this is the deep end of the pool.
from €10.55-79%·Compare prices →
