Hooded Horse is one of the best publishers out there for tactical and strategy games, and they are now having a huge sale on Steam. In addition to that, they've announced they're publishing fantasy roguelite autobattler Bosslords and sorcery colony sim Architect of Ruin.
Here are some of my favorite picks from the sale:
Battle Brothers
70 percent off at $8.99, all DLC is 20 percent off
Battle Brothers is a turn-based RPG in which you lead a ragtag band of medieval mercenaries. You'll decide where to go, who to fight, and how much you can withstand with your current squad. Your gang will get severely injured and sometimes die, but that's the way of this brutal low-fantasy world.
Shadow Gambit: The Cursed Crew
75 percent off at $9.99, all DLC is 50 percent off
In this stealth strategy offering, you set sail on a ghost ship to battle the Inquisition. This takes place in an alternate version of the Golden Age of Piracy, in which your crew has supernatural powers including possession and randomly spawning bushes to hide in.
Sadly, developer Minimi Games went out of business after publishing this, with Hooded Horse acquiring the rights.
Manor Lords
35 percent off at $25.99
Manor Lords became something of a viral phenomenon after its release. It sold a million copies in its launch week and has moved more than three million units since. A recent update allows all sorts of trading options, including the ability to establish monopolies if you choose. It's good to be the Manor Lord.
Looking further ahead in 2026, Hooded Horse has a bunch of games coming. Menace, a turn-based tactical RPG in the style of Battle Bros, will release in early access February 5.
