Games Like Machina of the Planet Tree -Planet Ruler- (2026)

Shared: RPG Maker

Four hours with a dying man's memories, and you will not walk away unchanged. The finest argument that games can do what novels do, built on an RPG Maker engine nobody will care about once the story lands.

Shared: Weapon Crafting

The first hour feels clumsy on purpose. Survive to the grappling hook and Harran becomes the best first-person parkour playground on PC, filler quests and all.

Shared: Weapon Crafting

Parkour across a quarantined city by day, then pray you make it to a safe house before the Volatiles clock in. Ten years on, Dying Light still does the day-night survival loop better than almost anything else in the genre.

Shared: tier:sub-5

Russian roulette with a 12-gauge and enough item-based mind games to make pure luck feel like a skill issue. Dirt cheap, brutally short, weirdly hard to put down.

Shared: Combo-Based Combat

The best-looking MMO on PC still has the best action combat going, but its grinding loops and gear RNG will absolutely test your patience before they reward it.
