<p>You&#39;re supposed to die multiple times when you play roguelikes; that principle isn&#39;t anything new. But death in roguelike dungeon-crawler <em>Hades</em> is also the primary vehicle for advancing its narrative. As Zagreus, son of Hades, death upon death befalls you while you strive to claw your way out of Hell — yet every time you return to the House of Hades, relationships with other characters find new ways to blossom.</p>

<p>When <em>Age of Empires III</em> was released in 2005, the real-time strategy genre was in the process of maturing, borrowing from other genres and placing emphasis on the meta-game. Years later, the <em>Definitive Edition</em> brings renewed life to <em>AoE III</em>&#39;s most innovative features. &quot;Home Cities&quot; are rendered with rich detail while &quot;The Art of War&quot; missions coach players through multiplayer scenarios.</p>

<p>It&#39;s not just rollercoasters. The <em>RollerCoaster Tycoon</em> series is known for enabling <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W6zoFirXQHs">labyrinths of death</a>, <a href="https://mashable.com/2018/07/10/rollercoaster-tycoon-calculator/">working calculators</a>, and <a href="https://killscreen.com/previously/articles/the-rollercoaster-tycoon-ride-that-takes-3000-in-game-years-to-complete/">rides that take in-game millenia to complete</a> — such is the unbridled potential of its sandbox tomfoolery. <em>RollerCoaster Tycoon 3</em> was the first in the series to introduce the &quot;CoasterCam,&quot; letting you experience these hell rides in the first-person.</p>

<p>As we tread the earth day to day, thousands of feet above the bones of long-extinct reptiles who we often represent as <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dnRxQ3dcaQk">empty-headed and slow-witted</a>, is it any wonder that one of our greatest fears is for them to re-emerge and violently restore their dominance? Enter <em>Second Extinction</em>, a co-op shooter in which players square off against hordes of mutant dinosaurs who appeared out of nowhere to overtake Earth._ _</p>

<p>A fun challenge to attempt while playing fumblecore platformer <em>Struggling</em> is to see if you can make it through a whole minute of gameplay without wondering some iteration of &quot;Dear God, why am I alive? Why must I <em>be</em>?&quot; <em>Struggling</em> is painful, demanding, and frequently funny in its resolve to turn every moment into an opportunity for fleshy, masochistic blunder.</p>

<p>You don&#39;t just start <em>Conan Exiles</em> with nothing: You start shackled to a literal crucifix. <em>Isle of Siptah</em>, the game&#39;s latest expansion, puts your humble beginnings into perspective. The expansion allows players to erect fortresses, pillage ancient dungeons, and brave a deadly maelstrom — a far cry from the sorry state from which you began the game.</p>

<p>Flight simulators have long served as benchmarks for gaming technology&#39;s capacity to offer players transcendent, out-of-body experiences. Playing VR helicopter simulator <em>Combat Helicopter: Surgical Strike</em> is a chance to participate in a ritual as old as PCs themselves. It&#39;s an opportunity to re-experience the feeling of flight in a completely new way.</p>

<p>Massive 4X strategy games exist to exemplify &quot;the butterfly effect.&quot; Major events and decisions shape the game world, even dozens of turns into the future. Once you&#39;ve set the course of history in <em>Humankind</em>, there&#39;s no stopping it; the Germans might invent the pyramid, while the Egyptians might found Memphis. Whatever happens in between is up to your determination.</p>

<p>If playing <em>Bridge Constructor</em> is like interacting with a robust science fair project, playing <em>Bridge Constructor: The Walking Dead</em> is like bringing the project to school with the intent of using hamsters as live subjects. <em>The Walking Dead</em>&#39;s morbidity and environment of constant tension translate well to the <em>Bridge Constructor</em> physics puzzler format.</p>

<p>One of the most compelling elements of cyberpunk fighting game <em>Metal Revolution</em> is its meter mechanic. Most actions — even blocking and dashing — consume energy stored in a meter that slowly recharges over time. As a result, the game obtains a unique rhythm as fighters strive to economize their energy usage while answering their opponents&#39; moves.</p>

<p>With its sharp wit and forthright presentation, <em>Disco Elysium</em> has fast become a favorite in the RPG crowd. As you slump, stumble, and flail through the city of Revachol you&#39;ll either solve one final murder case as a hero or become an absolute disaster of a human being in the process. An absolute treasure of an experience.</p>
