RESIDENT EVIL VILLAGE

Inventory management doing the work of a difficulty setting. Village of Shadows expects the route knowledge of a second playthrough and does not pretend otherwise.

You will lose sometimes. You will not mind.

AGE OF EMPIRES II: DEFINITIVE EDITION

Build orders are the curve, and the campaigns teach almost none of what the game actually asks for. The hard AI does not forget its economy while it fights.

Sustained pressure. Progress is earned.
