We've been spoilt for choice among the best strategy games of late, with the magnificent Baldur's Gate 3 leading the charge and other big winners including the likes of Manor Lords, Against the Storm, the revitalized Total War Warhammer 3, and now the upcoming Civilization 7. But if you've been hankering for something new to scratch that strategic itch, a new Humble Bundle is a great way to get your hands on six lesser-known but well-regarded such games at a discount price.

Последние лет 15 жанр стратегий в реальном времени (RTS) находился в коматозном состоянии. Объяснений происходящему — масса, а диспозиция выглядит следующим образом. Приблизительно в середине 2000-х жанр достиг своего пика и начал стагнировать. Попытки расширить аудиторию и резко увеличить продажи привели к появлению на свет довольно странных экспериментов, которые только отпугнули игроков.

Серия SpellForce — хрестоматийное дитя ранних 2000-х, здравствующее, к моей огромной радости, по сей день. Тот период запомнился любителям RTS как эпоха любопытных экспериментов в плане сеттинга (Paraworld, Rise of Nations: Rise of Legends) и механик. Немало разработчиков пыталось совокупить жанр со всем, что попадется под руку. Rise & Fall: Civilizations at War позарилась пришить к стратегической основе простенький слешер, а стратегические шутеры не раз безуспешно пытались найти свою нишу — от старенькой Battlezone до относительно недавнего Disintegration.
