In the year 1878, the mysterious Dr. Morhead built a laboratory on the remote Soreo Isle and started his experiments on human/animal hybrid genetics, violating the very foundations of nature. His work was aimed at the creation of animals that look, feel and behave more like humans. He created bizarre never-before seen creatures, ModBeasts, Humanimals and Brutes, each kind with unique abilities, tactics and firepower. After many years of hard labor bringing his desires into reality, Dr. Morhead achieved remarkable results in giving animals a human look, but there was one thing he did not take into account: animals are born as the children of nature, so their powerful bodies retained wild souls. The creatures' true nature could not be concealed forever, and the day came when Dr. Morhead fell prey to his own creations. Years later, this island was visited by the H. M. S. Spider and a party of sailors went ashore and first found nothing but some small, indigenous wildlife...until they met the real inhabitants of Soreo Isle. The mysterious world of Vivisector consists of a more than sixteen huge levels, pitting players against the wild unpredictable natives of Soreo Isle while struggling their way through lush tropical jungles, deep woods and snowy mountains.

The Bureau: XCOM Declassified	2K Games (2K Marin)	2013	Aunque de primeras parece un shooter del montón, lo que le convierte en un buen juego es el control y manejo de tu escuadra, donde es importante saber cómo moverlos y de que habilidades disponen, convirtiéndolo en un juego de acción a tiempo real pero con momentos de planificación, a medio camino entre los X-COM clásicos y un Rainbow Six. 7 de 10*The year is 1962 and the Cold War has the nation gripped by fear. A top-secret government unit called The Bureau begins investigating a series of mysterious attacks by an enemy more powerful than communism. As agent Carter, call the shots, pull the trigger and lead your squad in a gripping third-person tactical shooter set within a covert war to protect humanity from an otherworldly enemy.*The plot has a tragic logical fallacy about the Bureau performing a complete erasing of the truth of what happened, except the invasion was global and they had no control over what happened in other countries and the amount of secrecy they held over the event (likely poor/none in several), yet it's said no evidence of the invasion was left to the public.

Disciples III: Renaissance	Akella;Strategy First;Kalypso Media Digital (.dat)	2009	A new stage in the evolution of the turn-based strategy genre. Retaining the strengths of previous titles in the series, Disciples III introduces new features to create truly exciting gameplay. Disciples III continues and improves upon the core concepts of the Disciples series. Advances in gameplay and the addition of new elements will make the game richer and more interesting. The visual design follows the original ominous and gloomy style of the Disciples world, but now the entire game environment and every individual unit is in full 3D. The combat system will be significantly improved by adding new elements. Disciples III allows a Lord to use spells on the battlefield. Casting utilizes mana, magic energy that is acquired from controlled sources, plus spell cards that can be bought or found. Travel on a global map will be implemented as in Disciples II - via a point & click system. Now, you can also split groups at any time, and units will be able to travel without an accompanying Leader. New terrain features will also be added - rivers and gullies that can be crossed by bridges or by flying aboard an aircraft. Work on the project was started in the summer of 2005. The game uses .dat's in-house Virtual Dream engine, which supports all modern 3D technologies such as vertex and pixel shaders, normal maps, skeletal, morphic and procedural animations, particle systems, dynamic lights and shadows, portal technology, image post-processing, etc. Key Features: * Three playable races: The Empire, The Legions of the Damned and the Noble Elves; each has unique units and city design * Cities are now represented in full 3D, and the player will see selected buildings through the eye of a building-centered camera * At the strategic level, unit turns will be affected with an initiative factor that will dictate turns at the unit level, meaning increased fluidity in multiplayer and less downtime in single-player * Leaders get improved abilities and you can assign stat bonuses to your liking. An RPG-style system will be implemented for the character advancement system, with inventory, expanded stats and abilities, and a character model that will visually reflect equipped armor, weapons and artifacts [Akella]	Windows

Dragonshard	Atari (Liquid Entertainment)	2005	Latest version: 1.2.1 (as of 2006-02?), 1.2.1b for US version**Dragonshard is a real-time strategy experience based in the mystical world of Eberron, the acclaimed new DUNGEONS & DRAGONS realm. Within this wholly imaginative setting lives an inventive gameplay fusion: dramatic RTS play is affected by the risks and rewards of a thrilling RPG-styled underworld. As players direct troops over the land, they also plunge smaller, hero-led parties below ground to an RPG-modeled world of beasts, battles and bounty. Experience and items gained in this underworld result in great powers and abilities above ground. Using magic, weaponry and skilled maneuvers, players command armies from varying races to control, protect - or destroy - the powerful Heart of Siberys. Obtaining this omnipotent artifact will unleash its full forces, good or evil, upon the entire world. "Dragonshard is deliberately designed to do away with such slow-paced genre tropes in favour of spectacular action and a seamless, involving world." PC Gamer The First DUNGEONS & DRAGONS Real-Time Strategy Experience * The first D&D game from the all-new Eberron campaign setting Groundbreaking game design with two levels of interconnected action: dramatic RTS war above ground and critical RPG-styled battles in dungeons below * Four ranges of controllable units: powerful champions, heroic captains, trainable henchmen, and nearly unstoppable battlefield juggernauts * Unit development based on 'Experience Points', allowing players to "level up" units - an added RPG twist to the classic RTS gameplay structure * An innovative village grid system - the "Nexus System" - where choice and placement of buildings can specifically affect units' powers * Co-op and head-to-head multiplayer modes * Three warring factions (in multiplayer modes), each with its own history, campaigns, unique strengths... and weaknesses. * Game story by Eberron creator Keith Baker * A variety of threatening environments, all with the "Hyper Terrain" feature, creating real-time terrain deformation in the wake of unit movements [Atari]	Windows

Besides that, the concepts and gameplay elements they've invented up are quite refreshing, but don't do much in the light of the bugs that prevent you from enjoying it. After crashing or otherwise exhibiting bugs, it is good idea to exit the game and delete Alone_Data_DFE folder and possibly drm_dyndata_.dll file in the system temp folder.

The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim	Bethesda Softworks (Bethesda Game Studios)	2011	Special Edition does little else than overhaul the graphics a little bit and bundle all the DLC, biggest change is moving from 32 bit to 64 bit but this does not change the game.

Turning Point: Fall of Liberty	Codemasters (Spark Unlimited)	2008	"War becomes more personal than ever... through the eyes of a civilian" Turning Point™: Fall of Liberty sees World War II take a catastrophic turn as a superior Nazi force attacks New York and goes on to take over the United States. Delivering both wartime authenticity and a fresh perspective through an intense, action-driven storyline, Turning Point: Fall of Liberty makes war personal and relevant. Presenting this scenario as a powerful and realistically crafted alternate history, Turning Point: Fall of Liberty delivers an explosive First Person Shooter experience in a world where famous real-world locations appear startlingly different under Nazi occupation. "Resist an unstoppable occupying force on your own soil." What if the United States never entered WWII until WWII came knocking at its front door? What if you were among the last of the resistance, struggling almost single-handedly to hold back the tide of US occupation by the Nazi war machine? * Witness the Third Reich’s epic takeover of the United States * Fight the Occupation in New York, Washington DC, and London * Make a difference as an American Resistance hero * Battle an unstoppable Axis army loaded with post-war weapons * Use the surroundings with unique environmental kills, multiple grapples, and human shields! * Online Multiplayer, more details coming soon... * Stunning soundtrack from renowned composer Michael Giacchino, famous for Lost, Ratatouille, "Alias" and Mission: Impossible III, among many others In Turning Point’s alternate reality, the untimely death of Winston Churchill in 1931 leads to the fall of Great Britain and Europe as they surrender to Hitler in 1940. From this pan-European power base, the German war machine re-equips itself to launch an unstoppable takeover of the United States. As a civilian caught in the middle of these new battlegrounds, fight afresh against the world’s most notorious war machine on the streets of Manhattan, Washington DC, and beyond. Use guerrilla tactics and the surroundings to overcome superior post-war Axis weaponry and fight the Occupation. You are Dan Carson, a New York construction worker. You’ve watched as war enveloped the globe for over a decade and Europe fell to Nazi rule. Russia is now occupied, as are large areas of Asia. An uneasy alliance between the Germans and Japanese persists. The Nazis now look to the United States – the last major prize in their pursuit of world domination. New York is hit first as an overwhelming Nazi army invades. Zeppelins are the battleships, the blimps are the landing craft and the rooftops of downtown Manhattan are the beaches. Armed paratroopers descend on to the streets; the city is taken block by block.

Sanctum	Coffee Stain Studios;Lace Mamba (Coffee Stain Studios)	2011	Especialmente interesante por su mezcla entre acción y tower defense, donde tu personaje es fundamental para evitar que se cuelen de vez en cuando enemigos de cada oleada.

Gothic	Egmont Interactive;Xicat Interactive (Piranha Bytes)	2001	This nice German developed RPG adventure is set against the backdrop of a landscape savaged by war, the King of the human territories must find enough ore to forge weapons for his army to use in defence against the Orc Hordes. The King's mines are set in a large magical sphere and are worked by prisoners captured from across the kingdom. And it is into this sphere that you are thrown, charged with the task of delivering a letter – a letter that might just mark the turning point in the war against the Orcs. The Gothic world is constantly changing and evolving: events will occur that can alter the relationships between several groups of characters. NPCs are fully rounded with their own daily habits and relationships: they get up, work, go to bed, chat with each other and so on. More significantly, monsters cooperate with each other and are able to figure things out; they have individual perception. Some can be lured with food or noise, some will run away from bright light. Some can only hear or detect movement. Each character has the ability, with the correct training, to improve particular skills as the game progresses: training with the master of the sword, for example, will result in a character displaying noticeably more skilled swordsmanship. It is so much more satisfying to witness the effect of the skills you have learnt when they are visible in your character as oppose to a meaningless number rating, improving say, from 8 to 10. These 'optical' improvements are for the whole range of skills included in Gothic. The two different classes of magic (which are absolutely independent from each other) work along the same lines.* [12]* [53]	Windows
