Overboard

zxretrosoft

The ‘Non-violent games’ initiative brings us an overhaul of the classic Czech game, Overboard. This is a board game that challenges you to try to get rid of all your opponent’s marbles by strategically moving yours. The gameplay in Overboard is simple: when it's your turn, you get to make one move at a time. Your goal is to either get rid of all your opponent’s marbles or have the most marbles on the board by the time the game is over. You can choose between more than five different skins for the board and the marbles. You also have the choice to play against your friends in hot-seat mode or against the AI in three different difficulty levels.

Castle Conquest

zxretrosoft

Castle Conquest is a fun turn-based strategy game that might remind you of chess, although it has a much more dynamic gameplay to make the game more accessible for all kinds of players. The premise of Castle Conquest is very simple. Your objective is to steal the key to your enemy's castle with a small eight-man troop while also defending your own. To do so, you move each soldier in your troop one by one, turn by turn, placing them strategically to put pressure on your enemy without exposing yourself to danger. Unlike chess, moving your characters in this game is easy: you can move as many squares as you want, either vertically or horizontally, but if you run into an obstacle, you'll have to wait a turn before you can pass it. Kill enemy solders by moving your soldiers onto the same square, and whoever gets the key to the castle wins. Castle Conquest has three levels of difficulty to ensure enough of a challenge without causing too much frustration, which makes this the perfect game for just about anyone.
