Bloons TD 6 is an enormously popular TD game for younger folks.  Almost 200,000 reviews on Steam, 97% of them positive, and among the best TD games out there (if a bit silly on the graphics).

I like the fact that Epic passes back more revenue to game makers (I've ready 85% versus 70%).  I've never had complaints with Steam, but monopolies are never good for competition.

Just took a look at my EPIC library, have 293 titles in it....if I had to guess, probably have purchased less than 10 so the rest have been from FREE promotions.  Probably 95% of them, never have installed or even tried:)

Fallout Tactics: Brotherhood of Steel is a pretty fun turn-based tactics game as I recall.
A War of a Madman's Making - a text-based war planning and political survival RPG

It makes no difference what men think of war, said the judge.  War endures.  As well ask men what they think of stone.  War was always here.  Before man was, war waited for him.  The ultimate trade awaiting its ultimate practitioner.  That is the way it was and will be.  That way and not some other way.
- Cormac McCarthy, Blood Meridian


If they made nothing but WWII games, I'd be perfectly content.  Hypothetical matchups from alternate history 1980s, asymmetrical US-bashes-some-3rd world guerillas, or minor wars between Upper Bumblescum and outer Kaboomistan hold no appeal for me.

I guess it's sort of nice that the word "tactical" seems to refer to some kind of seriousness during your moments of mental clarity.

So, there is a game I want on both Steam and Epic, but I can get the game for 25% off at Epic.

How has Epic been for the folks that use it? Should I just wait for a sale on Steam?  O0

Same.  Even did a self-refund on one game (GalCiv4) with no problems.  Just don't expect a Steam key...

The biggest issue you'll likely run into is that many mods will only be available via the Steam workshop so non-Steam versions are SOL.

Yea, that would be a deal breaker for me. Well, Steam it is then  O0
