Horn of the Warlord

Simple and yet a remarkable amount of depth. The AI is very challenging and it might take a few retries to find the right strategy. Love the visual style too. The price is a bit high for the amount of content, but I would definitely recommend this game if it's on sale.

Very good strategy game with a simple look and mechanics that still offer a very good experience. Also gets frequent updates and is still improving.

Pretty fun turn based game. The main draw is in raising armies to clash in a fun simulation, the resource mechanics add nice balance and the art style makes it feel authentic to the time period it portrays. While the game has that 'one more turn' feeling to it, it is lacking a bit on the content side. The Campaign has a good number of entries but they can feel kind of similar. Scenarios are nice with alternate objectives The biggest shake-up for both is the 'viking landing' start. Some ideas that could be explored are campaigns or scenarios with allied factions, and something needed is an 'Endless' mode where you have to try and defend a very large land from constant viking raiding parties.
