RPGS (and RPG-like games) now on sale at Show Me The Games

Posted by Rampant Coyote on May 13, 2013

Okay, just a little bit of a follow-up for yesterday’s announcement… for RPG fans (I understand there may be one or two around here), here are the RPGs currently on sale at steep discounts at ShowMeTheGames.com —

Frayed Knights: The Skull of S’makh-Daon – you may have heard me talk about this one once or twice.

Bret Airborne – Match-3 puzzle game mechanics melded onto an RPG structure.  Or is it the other way around? Regardless – duelling upgradable airships!

Magical Diary: Horse Hall – IMO, a nice visual-novel-and-RPG combo set in an alternative to Harry Potter’s universe.

Planet Stronghold: A sci-fi turn-based RPG with Manga-style art.

Moonchild – Good ol’ 16-bit-console-style RPG, from Aldorlea Games

Dangerous High School Girls in Trouble – I haven’t really considered this one an RPG, but that’s probably because it defies categorization. If you are looking for something other than plain ol’ fantasy realms, this is a popular (and, at times, controversial) title to check out.

Space Pirates and Zombies – Shooter / Strategy / RPG in space.  It draws inspiration from such an unusual mix of titles as Diablo, Star Control 2, Master of Orion, and Mechwarrior 2.

Long Live the Queen -by the maker of Cute Knight and Magical Diary: Horse Hall, you play a young princess, and heiress to the kingdom. And you are unlikely to survive long enough to take it.

Magi – An action-strategy game with “RPG elements,” you participate in arcane duels with rival magi – including Death herself!

Loren: Amazon Princess – a turn-based RPG with Manga-style art. And – it’s big. Romances, over 500 unique items, 100 different enemies, deep skill trees, romances, etc.

Cinders: More of a visual novel, not sure it counts as an RPG, but that’s the category it puts itself. Anyway – it’s a moody VN based on the story of Cinderella, with an emphasis on characters, motivation, and the impact of choice. It has lush illustrations, and that’s…. about all I know about it.

There may be others that appear later on this week for the sale – but that’s a lot of RPG-style or RPG-influenced titles to choose from. You can check ’em out (with videos!) at:

Show Me the Games – Show me the Sales!

This sale doesn’t go long, so grab ’em while you can.
