Betrayal
DOS1990protected
Ah, Betrayal—a game with a name that really sets the tone. Is it about backstabbing? Politics? Lost love? Not really. It’s actually a hybrid of strategy and role-playing where you move pieces around a map like a fantasy general with trust issues. The real betrayal might be the interface, which hasn’t aged gracefully. But stick wit...

From the people who brought you Dungeons & Dragons, here's Blood & Magic (1996), the RTS that nobody remembers but definitely deserves a second glance. You summon golems from magical “blood forges” because apparently swords and fireballs weren’t metal enough. The gameplay is surprisingly chill for something with “Blo...

This is Dungeons & Dragons meets Arabian Nights, with sand, spells, and more genies than you can reasonably fit into one bottle. The combat&r...
