Overview
Description

In Reus you command three elemental giants to sculpt mountains, oceans, forests and more, guiding the planet’s evolution. By nurturing plants, minerals and animal life you provide for humanity, whose free will can turn prosperity into greed. The game blends puzzle, strategy and simulation as you balance nature’s bounty against human vices, solving wars, curbing deforestation and even defending the giants themselves. All this unfolds in a single‑player, indie fantasy experience across PC, Mac, Linux, PS4 and Xbox One.

Valheim is a co-op survival crafting game set in a procedurally generated Norse purgatory, blending base-building, exploration, and challenging boss fights with a striking low-poly art style.
