You can also purchase the games individually. If you purchase the whole package you wil be getting 75% off then another 45% off each game that's approximately a total of 90% off each game. I've got all of the above titles and can say they are all fantastic games. The commando series is the oldest, but it's got some great game play. The tropico series is superb and has some comedy moments as well. It's a really interactive game where you can follow every citizen of the island. it's a combination of City Building and RTS game and is great value for money. It's only a few years old with the latest expansion less than 2 years old. You also get the original Tropico Called Reloaded that reminds me of a cross betweem the early civilization game and some of the early rts games as does Tropico Pirate bay. The graphics from the last two games are pretty basic, but the game play is exemplary.
The Patrician series, Grand Ages: Rome and it's expansion Reign of Augustus and Imperium Romanum Gold (includes all expansions) are also great Roman Empire building sim/rts games. If you like rts games , all of these are essential playing. Included in the package is a fantastic Space action game called Darkstar One. I originally bought this game on DVD several years ago (2006), then bought it via GOG then again on Steam. You can check it out via GOG HERE.
Included in the package is the turn based strategy RPG Disciples III - Renaissance a great game if you like RPG magic based games. Grat graphics and great game play that'll keep you gripped for hours at a time. Theres a Strategy Sim called the great Art Race which I can't say anything about becasue I don't hve this game, Fianlly an Action RPG called Dawn of Magic II.
You can check out details of each game by going HERE and then clicking on individual games to see information, images and videos.
I'd got a load of images which I'll post tomorrow morning. It's getting late and I have other things to catch up on. :)
