Not recommended Jul 2, 2025
Why this game hasn't been removed is beyond me. Ortus Arena is basically unplayable, unless you don't mind constantly having to 'Run the application as an administrator' for the .exe file every time you do. But even then, the online servers are dead. Unaccesible. Gone-zo. You can only play solo or campaign mode, and the devs has shown no interest nor attempt at fixing the servers anymore. It's disappointing, as this game had so much potential when it first came out. The graphics and BGM are decent, and the game-play needs some polishing when it first came out. I can no longer give Ortus Arena the praise it (used to) deserve. Skip this game, and find another board game on Steam, basically any working board game at this point.

https://youtu.be/SJ9xRShNrXk Simply put the game doesn't function without a connection to the server, but it's free, so no major loss.

dead game, servers are down, the only way to play is to open the game as admin from the folder but it doesn't run with steam so you can't get the achievements from the campaign...

Игра 'Ortus Arena' – это настоящее сокровище для любителей тактических настольных игр, и особенно приятно, что она доступна совершенно бесплатно! С первых же партий ощущаешь глубину стратегии, заложенную разработчиками. Каждая фракция обладает уникальными особенностями, что заставляет постоянно искать новые подходы и комбинации. Интерфейс интуитивно понятен, а визуальное оформление держит в напряжении, позволяя полностью погрузиться в игровой процесс. Сообщество игроков активно, что гарантирует быстрый поиск соперников и возможность учиться на чужих ошибках (или победах!). Это не просто игра, а целая арена для ума, где каждый ход имеет значение. Настоятельно рекомендую всем, кто ценит умные развлечения и не боится бросить вызов своим тактическим способностям.

Games like Dying Light, where nightfall changes the rules

Games like Dying Light are easy to find if you only want parkour or only want zombies. These eight keep the part that matters: a city that becomes a different place after dark.

Games like Portal 2, where one idea carries the whole game

Games like Portal 2 all share one habit: teach a single impossible trick, then spend a campaign breaking it. From rewinding objects through time to Escher geometry that loops back on itself.

Planet Coaster DLC: skip the collection, buy the packs

The Planet Coaster DLC catalogue closed in 2019, so there is no curve left to wait out. Our record shows the collection bundle costs far more than assembling the same packs one by one.

Titanfall 2's campaign changed its own rules every mission. Games like Titanfall 2 that keep one part of it — the wall-running, the mech, or a campaign that never settles.
