39. Clash of Clans

Developer: Supercell

Strategy

City Invasion

 

 

Rally your clansmen!

Clash of Clans has already established a name for itself in the world of gaming. If you are unfamiliar with this game, and forgive me because I now think you live under a rock, then here’s a run-down on the game.

You are tasked with building a fortress, complete with barracks and production buildings. Build troops to attack players to earn gold and elixir, the resources you’ll need to improve your own buildings. Then, as the name implies, you can join a clan and then engage in the giant clan wars that are raging in-game.

If you are a fan of games like Tribal Wars and Game of Fire, this game is definitely worth a shot. Considering it’s so popular, there’s certainly got to be a reason to play.

Sometimes, you just got to throw caution to the wind.

38. Neverwinter

Developer: Perfect World

MMORPG

Fantasy Adventure

 

 

They offer dragons as a playable race now.

While Dungeons and Dragons Online takes place in the 3.5 Universe, Neverwinter is centered around Dungeons and Dragons 4.0. If you have played the table-top version of that, then you should have a leg-up on everyone els ein this game.

You’ll pick from eight different classes, complete with healing powers and action points. Join one of the various factions fighting for control following the disappearance of the Lord of Neverwinter.  There is also a lich named Valindra who will demand a lot of your attention, probably because she has a load of skeletons and a dracolich in her ranks.

Fans of Dungeons and Dragons will surely love playing this game. There appears to be so much content to do and so much exploration to do. Expect to be putting in loads of hours into this game. 

They did the monster smash!

37. Mount and Blade: Warband

Developer: TaleWorlds

Action RPG, Strategy, Simulation

Fantasy Adventure

 

Welcome to Calderia.

Welcome to Calderia, a place where six different factions fight for control of the region. It falls to you, the player, to shape this country in whatever image you wish it to be.

You’ll start as a traveler in the land of one of the six factions vying for control. You can work your way into favor of nobles, establish property, marry, and possibly becoming a ruler of your own personal nation. Whatever you do though, know that it will take a while to be “victorious”.

If you enjoy games that take a while and require you to be both a military and political genius, you need to try this game. There are a number of DLCs that have come out for the game, like Napoleonic Wars and North and South, which adds some new maps and factions for multiplayer play.  This game is guaranteed to bring you many hours of entertainment and will keep you coming back to it.

When engaging in sieges, make sure you bring enough men.

Hear it here first foks.

In a fictional universe deep in space, a hyper-advanced race called The Eldan have mysteriously died out, leaving their planet of Nexus bare of a civilized race. That changes really quickly as two factions, The Dominion and The Exiles, fight for the right to inhabit the planet and possibly discover the secrets of the Eldan.

They’ll fight both the enemy faction and some other races, and eventually learn about the story behind the Eldan’s disappearance.  Your character will eventually be able to own property, participate in PvP and dungeons, and all sort of other things.

If you’re a fan of fun science-fiction games, then this is the game for you. The game is free to play now, so give it a try if it strikes the slightest interest in you.

35. Warcraft 3

Developer: Blizzard

Real-Time Strategy

Fantasy Strategy

 

 

War is here, but somethign worse is on it's way.

Like World of Warcraft, some of Blizzard’s games are really great even if they are kind of old. This is also the case of Warcraft 3, which is also one of the games that inspired the massively popular MMO.

You can play the campaign, which focuses on the ascent of the man who becomes the Lich King and other notable characters who must try and stop him. You can also play a skirmish as Humans, Orcs, Night Elves or Undead. The Frozen Thrones expansion pack introduces tow new races, the Trolls and the Blood Elves, and also adds a bunch of new content to both single-player, multiplayer and also the map editor.

Though the game is rather old, the ability to make your own scenarios or play on already made maps still makes the game incredibly interesting. There even exists a player base on multiplayer that you can play with as soon as you get some experience against the computers.

The online multiplayer is still going strong after all these years.

34. Elsword

Developer: Kog

Fantasy MMO, fighting platform side-scroller

Fantasy Adventure

 

 

The timing has never been better to start playing this game. 

This game is pretty fun and light-hearted. The characters are a load of fun, the enemies seem pretty creative and the way of level progression is something I don’t see in many games.

In Elsword, you’ll have your pick of seven different characters, each with a unique backstory and playstyle. As you level up, you will have to choose between two separate specializations, once at level 15 and again at level 35. You’ll pick up weapons and armor along the way, and also you may pick up a few costume items.

If you’re looking for a side-scrolling fighter in a brightly-colored universe, this is your game. There’s also a new character out recently, so perhaps now is a great time to get started. 

It's side-scrolling mayhem in this game.

Time to make some money.

This is the game for you people wanting to play out a heist on the scale of “Heat” or “Point Break”. This game will give you the most suspenseful firefights you will have ever been a part of.

The game focuses on you doing missions, strongly preferably with other human beings, that range from robbing banks to stealing meth from gang members. With each completed job, you get the chance to get weapon attachments, new masks, or designs for your masks. There are four classes to put points into, providing you the tools you’ll want to bring along to be a successful member of the team.

If there ever was a shooter you need to have friends with to play with, this is that game. Once you get into this game, you’ll never get tired of it. The new content that has been coming out lately doesn’t hurt either.     

Looks like a party.

31. Left 4 Dead

Developer: Valve

First-person shooter survival horror

Horror Shooter

 

 

The living dead now come in all shapes and sizes.

This was the game that started a beautiful horror-survival franchise. The zombie apocalypse has never seemed both scary and incredibly entertaining at the same time.

You and three other individuals are the last surviving people who need to get to safety. To do so, you’ll need to fight through waves of zombies and a number of enemies called “special infected”.  Teamwork is the key to getting through it all, and you would do well to heed those words well.

If you enjoy a good time with friends and killing zombies, get this game. It’s all the intensity of fighting the zombie hordes, but none of the fear you see in games like DayZ or H1z1.

It all started on a dark and stormy night.

Left 4 Dead

 

30. Left 4 Dead 2

Developer: Valve

First-person shooter survival horror

Horror Shooter

 

 

It's terror time, again.

Left 4 Dead 2 is perhaps one of the most fun horror survival games out there. If anything can be said about games Valve makes, they sure know how to make sure the players have a very enjoyable experience.

You and three other survivors, A.I or human-controlled depends on you, must fight your way through five maps filled with your common zombies and several types of “special infected”. Along the way, you’ll be able to pick up guns, melee weapons, explosives, and some items that will benefit you. The key is to stay together, because programming in the game is merciless if one of your team strays to far from the group.

And if you’re the competitive type, you can play against a second team of players and take turns being survivors or zombies, trying to get farther on each map of a single campaign and therefore racking up more points. If you get the game on Steam, there are loads of mods that can customize the look of both you, your friends and even the enemy. There is no excuse why fans of shooters and zombie survival games should not be playing this game.

Did I mention the fun mods for this game?
