You'll then embark on an adventure to recover your memories throughout this vibrant world.

These scores will determine whether or not a player wins after four seasons have passed.
The game lets players engage in a little bit of competitive play as they duke it out against other city founders in cross-platform multiplayer modes. They can also put their own skills to the test in Solo Challenges against AI.

Wings of Glory
Dire Wolf Digital's digital adaptation of the popular aerial combat board game from Ares Games thrusts players into the war-torn world of 1917 Europe. Players will manage biplanes and engage in dogfights to dominate the skies and become Knights of the Air.
The cross-platform title features a variety of pilots players can choose from with their own stats, as well as different vehicles to collect in their hangar as they try to clear special reconnaissance missions.

Noah's Heart
This massive open-world title features deep character customisation not only with an avatar's physical cosmetics but also with their moves and skill sets. Players can summon Phantoms to bind with to switch up their combat styles during battle.
The game also features a variety of mounts players can use to explore the whole world around them - and the world is truly literal in the sense that starting from one point of the map and heading straight on will allow you to circle the planet and end up back where you started.
