Strategy
Ironvale Legions
★★★★★ 4.6
Ironvale Legions is the kind of strategy game I keep meaning to play for ten minutes and then look up an hour later. Battles are turn-based on a hex grid, and the whole thing lives or dies on how you use terrain. High ground, chokepoints, flanking — it all counts, and the AI actually punishes lazy formations.
- Terrain-driven tactics with real depth
- Clean, readable interface on small screens
- Undo system that respects fat-finger mistakes

Questions & answers
How do you choose which games to cover?
We pick games we're personally curious about, ones readers keep asking about, and surprises we spot in the charts. Somebody on the team has to play a real chunk of it before we write anything. We don't cover a game just because a studio wants us to.
Do studios pay you for reviews?
No. We don't take payment for coverage or for a higher score, and no one can buy a spot in our catalogue. Our reviews stay independent, which is the whole point of the site.
Can I suggest a game for you to review?
Absolutely, and we read every suggestion. Drop us an email with the game name and why you think it's worth a look. We can't promise to cover everything, but good tips genuinely shape what we play next — Big Bass Fishin ended up on the site partly because a reader flagged it.
Is there advertising on the site?
We may run basic display ads to keep the lights on, but they never influence what we write or how we score. Editorial and advertising are kept completely separate, and we'll always tell you plainly what our opinion is.
