Strategy

This game is deeper, more complex and requires thinking. Here brainpower is more productive than fast fingers. (Helpful movie concept: The Fugitive.)

The rating scale ranges from one to five, with three being "average" and five being "excellent" or "high".

Recommended Game: Battle for Wesnoth
Game download: The Battle for Wesnoth website (http://www.wesnoth.org) recently had some problems. If you have trouble getting to the download section, you can still download an older version of the game. It's a Spanish-language website, but the link will take you straight to the download page, and the download (called win-0.8.2.exe) will give you the English-language version of the game.

Summary: This is a quality turn-based overhead strategy game taking place in a fantasy setting. Extremely well done. Extremely well-supported, and the continuing development means features (including multi-language translations of the game) are being added all the time.
