A tactics sequel that polishes everything: new units, a branching campaign and a generous map editor. The cartoon charm hides genuine depth, and the roguelike mode gives one more reason to stay. Excellent in handheld bursts.

Two crossing campaigns, a roguelite Conquest mode and a shared online editor form a tripod that never runs dry. Each story map invites a perfect score, while generated runs and community creations refresh the offering endlessly. Competitive multiplayer seals the deal: you come back long after the credits.

Wargroove 2 (Nintendo Switch) price, value & rarity
Turn-based strategy with an action heart, Wargroove 2 peaks in its enemy commanders and their devastating Grooves. Each foe's ultimate ability can flip the battlefield in an instant, forcing you to plan several turns ahead. These clashes are as much a tactical arm-wrestle as a duel between vividly drawn personalities.
Better with friends
This turn-based strategy welcomes up to four players, in competition or co-op, across maps where every decision carries weight. The rivalry is cerebral: maneuvers, counters and sneaky plays weave tense duels, while custom content stretches the lifespan. Matches can drag on, so it pays to set aside the time. One to keep for tactical evenings among regulars who relish a long think.
