#OnThisDay in #GamingHistory

#AgeofWonders II: The Wizard’s Throne, released June 28, 2002, #TriumphStudios expanded its epic blend of turn-based strategy and high fantasy.

Circle of Evermore. Wizard Kings. Arcane power.
In #AoW2, players command powerful spellcasters, build mystical cities, and wage tactical battles across richly crafted hex-based maps.

With deep #4X mechanics, strategic depth, and stunning fantasy art, it stood tall alongside genre giants like Heroes of Might and Magic and Master of Magic.

Happy birthday, Wizard. The throne still calls.

Call to Power II for PC

Call to Power (1999) took the #Civilization formula and dared to go beyond. Underwater cities, space colonies, and futuristic warfare.
Often overlooked, but its ambitious vision of the future still stands out.

If you like alt-history and deep #strategy, it's worth rediscovering.

Still one of the most visionary #scifi #strategy #games ever made: Sid Meier's Alpha Centauri.

Released in 1999, yet its themes - AI ethics, climate change, ideological conflict - feel more relevant than ever.

If you love 4X, deep lore, and tough choices, this #classic is a must-play.

I love #turnbased strategy and #4X #games because they give me full control over every decision without the pressure of real-time reactions. I enjoy #building empires, #managing resources, and #planning several moves ahead. Every choice matters — whether it’s expanding my territory, negotiating with rivals, or preparing for war. It’s incredibly rewarding to see a long-term plan succeed. These games test my patience, intelligence, and adaptability.
