I recently have been playing Across The Obelisk and I have been having a blast with the game. The game is basically a mix of Slay the Spire roguelike deckbuilder battles and Dungeons and Dragons.
Instead of controlling just one character like in Slay the Spire, you control 4 characters each with different cards to choose from.
The game has four different classes(Tank, Mage, Scout and Healer) with 4 unique characters for each class with a total of 16 unique characters.
You also have progression elements such as perks and town upgrades which persist after every run.
The best part of the game is that it has upto 4 player co-op multiplayer where each person can play a single character.
It is extremely fun playing this with friends. You can also play with just two or three friends and in that case you have each person or one person control two characters.
BTW, Across the Obelisk is currently on sale on Steam in case anyone is interested in it.
What games have you played recently?
At the moment, Satisfactory, Ultimate Admiral: Dreadnoughts and one of my longtime favourites, the Homeworld remaster.
Playing a UAD campaign right now, as the US from 1880. My economy is running on the fact that every world power wants me to build ships for them.
Ohh, yes, I remember that.
Funnily enough, this playthrough, nobody wants my ships, even though, as the US, I'm the single most advanced Navy in the game, as both Spain and China have just learned, losing entire fleets to a 4-CA battlegroup plus escorts (seriously, the weapons range advances you can get from the 1890s-1910s are just unfair...)
As of last night's save, Spain no longer has any battleships or armoured cruisers - they're all decorative reefs dotting the waters of New York - and China has one single BB afloat that I couldn't intercept in time.
Oh, and the best thing. This is still on the older battleships. My first dreadnoughts, armed with six 13-inch guns, are still under construction. If Spain and China don't get those peace treaties signed fast I'll get a good chance to see how they perform, too!
The Italians thought they could bully me, and then the Florida class began coming off the slip ways. 4x2 14"s go boom.
That's a lot of damage. The gun calibre on mine does vary a little depending on what's good. The CA's for instance, keep switching around from 9-10-8-9 depending on the best mark of gun I have available - I get the impression that a Mk.III 9" is generally more useful than a Mk.II 10", especially as at these ranges there's no incentive not to make the barrels as long as the tech supports, switch to heavy shells and get the heaviest, fastest shell you can... (Seeing as I don't have an economy financed by other people wanting me to build ships for them, I'm going for a lot more refits this time around, but the tech's advancing so fast I'm finding that after, for instance, the CA10k programme, those self-same CA10ks were back in the yard for refits to get them up to date with the tech invented while they were building...)
Must be honest, though, my classes are just called "CA 11k" or "BB 22k5" by this point - I lose track otherwise...
For the sake of logistics I'm done maintaining what amounts to an old cruiser museum, too, two classes, current and one older than current, across the board, current largely East Coast because everybody who wants to take a shot at me seems to want to do so outside New York (seriously, NY harbour must be a menace to navigation by this point) and the somewhat more expendable expeditionary forces operating out of San Francisco for a half-hearted expansion into the Pacific, mostly at the expense of Spain and China
