I’m not sure if this counts as a “patient gamer” because I played them to death years ago…but I’ve been playing both again recently and they’re just perfect little games with a ton of replayability. They’re not retro (FTL 2012, ITB 2018) but they’re old enough to regularly go on sale which is great!

Highly recommended if you like roguelite strategy games.

If you have any similar games to suggest, please leave a comment. I’m sure there’s tons of great strategy games I’ve missed over the years

    Into The Breach took me a while to get into but now I also have it on my phone and it’s just so good and replayable. Would also love to have suggestions of similar games.

      Turn based tactics games. Advanced Wars, Fire Emblem, Final Fantasy Tactics. All slightly different but def in the same genre.

        I feel like these are missing the very exact puzzle feeling that Into the Breach has, where all of the information of what every skill does is there, the range of everything, and you can even see exactly what the enemies are going to do next turn. That ideology in the design is missing from a lot of other games like that and makes it feel very different to play.
