That some games in these respective series still broke into the top ten all on their own is testament to their enduring appeal, of course, and I'm dead keen to see what you make of this list in the comments below. StarCraft would be sitting at number one, followed by Command & Conquer, Civilization, Supreme Commander, Age Of Empires, XCOM, Total War and Warcraft, with two more individual games that I won't name here because, you know, spoilers. I won't spoil which game received the highest number of votes up top here, but let's just say if I was ranking this list by series, we'd have a very different top ten. Naturally, with so many mods and expansions coming up on the list, the number of votes for certain games has ended up becoming quite diluted in places. Here are your 50 favourite strategy games of all time, as voted for by you, the RPS readership. As with all strategy games, however, there can only be one victor - and you can find out what that single strategy game to rule them all is right here. And cor, I've never seen such love for individual expansions and total conversion mods among mainline RTS games and 4Xs.
A depth of mechanics coupled with a breadth of content is why this is the game we mention first.Earlier this month, we asked you to vote for your favourite strategy games of all time to celebrate the launch (and glorious return) of several strategy classics this month, including Relic's WW2 RTS Company Of Heroes 3, Blue Byte's The Settlers: New Allies and Cyanide's fantasy Warhamball Blood Bowl 3. This title has been lauded as the modern gold standard for the city building genre, and with good reason. The city you build dynamically "lives" and you'll need to juggle the economy, education, emergency services and more to create a functional settlement.Ĭities: Skylines further expands its already bountiful content with a bunch of DLCs which add buildings, upgrades and mechanics in given themes, such as eco-friendliness. At the same time Cities brings the realism by rewarding effective city design and punishing poor solutions. Players are given a huge amount of control allowing their creative visions to be translated onto the screen with little restriction holding them back in the form of game mechanics or limitations. This game focuses entirely on the whole city building aspect cutting all other fluff out of the equation. If one were to crown a single king among city builders, it would be Cities: Skylines.
