Welcome to the first full week of the month of May, a week that brings with it a large amount of new releases, even though none of them really stands out. This week's major release puts you in charge of a kingdom as its ruler, for better or worse. If a kingdom is too much, maybe a dutchy is more your cup of tea? No? Then how about some trench warfare? All too antiquated for you? How about building your own moving village? Or maybe you'd rather go for a walk at midnight or descend into darkness? If none of these suits your taste, maybe this week's other releases will fill that new game void?

Yes, Your Grace 2: Snowfall / This week's major release / Thursday 8 May
Yes, Your Grace: Snowfall is a cinematic kingdom management game. Take on the role of a King, manage resources, support your loved ones, and make difficult decisions to see your kingdom prosper or fail. Dive into a Slavic-folklore inspired world and deal with a queue of petitioners who will bring trouble, help, or laughter into your throne room. Decide whether to help them with their problems, or conserve resources for more important matters. Steam link




Drop Duchy / Monday 5 May
Build your duchy piece by piece in this refreshing hybrid rogue-lite game. Use block-dropping mechanics to collect resources, recruit troops to fight against belligerent armies, and let every block shape your realm, leading your path to victory. Steam link



Trench Tales / Tuesday 6 May / Early access
A story-driven third-person action game set in a dark, alternative world between WWI and WWII. Harness unique powers, customize your arsenal, and navigate haunting Gothic landscapes. Battle fallen soldiers as you uncover the mysteries of this realm. Steam link



Survival Machine / Wednesday 7 May / Early access
Build your base on a moving Machine, travel through biomes with different resources, and prepare for the night when a zombie threat is much higher than during the day. Would you go solo or explore this new world with your best friends? Steam link



The Midnight Walk / Thursday 8 May
Follow The Midnight Walk in a dark adventure from the minds behind Lost in Random. Befriend a lost lantern creature and light your way through a world of wonder and terror. Outsmart monsters and marvel at details in a landscape handcrafted with real clay and animated in a stop motion style. Steam link



Anoxia Station / Friday 9 May
Anoxia Station is a mining management game set in a dystopian near-past. A supervolcanic eruption devastated the Earth's surface, rendering it uninhabitable. Nations now teeter on the brink of extinction relying on the Terranauts - miners sent into the hellish depths of this dying world-. Their mission: extract petroleum, crucial to sustaining humanity's essential infrastructures and survival. Steam link



Also launching this week: Among Us 3D, RailGods of Hysterra and Revenge of the Savage Planet

Sorry that this was posted so late.

My code failed due to a side effect of forum migration, so news posting didn't work at all. Should be fixed now
 
I added about half of these to my wishlist, thanks for the direct Steam Links again
 
Trench Tales looks cool, but I'll wait until it's finished. Not a fan of early access games (even most full releases are unfinished these days).
 
I was in the Railgods of Hysterra test. Kind of fun but I hope they dont charge too much.
I am in the Trench Tales test. Buggy as hell (you can turn your shovel into a gun with infinite ammo, found this within 30 seconds and its replicable), poorly optimized with most of the settings either not available or not working, poorly balanced. Could use co-op play. Shooting monsters and evil dudes in a gritty setting is always interesting but I wouldnt pay for it currently especially when this round of Alpha testing opened 6 (SIX!) months ago. I assume they will just drop a patch finally on EA release.
 
Trench Tales looked interesting until they mentioned powers and zombies.


Anoxia looks interesting, but I'm not big on horror.
 
Hopefully "The Midnight Walk" delivers, it looks very unique. Need more horror games in my life :rockout:
