I am 32 years old. My ex-wife and I have a daughter together, and we adopted our son together. Both are now 4 years old. When we were going through our separation, I felt lost and unhappy. I was self-destructive. One day, I was so angry with everything spiraling out of control that I punched a concrete wall in a moment of overwhelming emotion. This resulted in breaking my fifth metacarpal in my right hand—the hand I worked with, played games with, and used to carry my children to bed—the hand I desperately needed to ensure I could continue providing. Upon learning the severity of the self-inflicted damage, I became almost suicidal. Keep in mind that just a few months before this, I was the happiest man, with no history of depression or anxiety. I had never experienced anger outbursts, nor was I the type to break down and cry, but I was in a tough situation that truly prevented me from seeing the light on the other side. With nothing better to do, I looked for a game I could play WITH ONE HAND while recovering. Somehow, I stumbled upon this game and read some of the comments. I decided it was worth a try... I must admit I didn't beat the game, nor did I play as much as some of you. In fact, I may have played this game for only a day or two. That being said, after doing so, I had a new joy and hope for life. I managed to leave behind the pain and suffering that had been thrust upon me. I could experience the joy and happiness of other people. I relaxed for 5 ♥♥♥♥ minutes listening to this music, long enough to realize that I would be okay. After realizing this, I turned off the game and went back to work. My hand hurt a lot, but I was motivated. I stopped feeling so sorry for myself and became the father I needed to be at that moment, not the weak boy I was behaving like. Today, I am close friends with the mother of my children. We don't fight, argue, or say hurtful things to each other. We are parents and friends. Now I have 3 children. My third child is, wait, ALSO 4 YEARS OLD. The woman I am with was going through a very similar situation at the time of my separation, and we just unexpectedly stumbled into each other's lives. We have been dating for a year and are very happy together. Moral of the story: you never know what life has in store for you, and if I had given up when all odds were against me, I wouldn't be where I am today. This silly little game helped me realize that. Thank you.

You... and who else? takes an old-school approach to strategy gaming by putting players in command of an ambitious campaign of conquest across a fantasy world divided by rival powers. Developed and published by Aldorlea Games, the title focuses less on cinematic storytelling and more on tactical decision-making, offering a compact but engaging experience for players who appreciate methodical planning. Its premise is simple: build your forces, strengthen your commanders, and lead them through a succession of battles that will determine the fate of the continent. While the game does not present an especially deep narrative, it succeeds in establishing a clear objective that keeps the campaign moving forward from one battlefield to the next. The foundation of the experience lies in its blend of strategy and role-playing elements. Players are tasked with assembling armies under the leadership of a diverse collection of generals, each possessing distinct abilities and preferred troop types. Progression is tied to victories, allowing commanders to become stronger through earned rewards and upgrades. This creates an enjoyable sense of advancement, as leaders who initially seem average can eventually become invaluable assets with proper investment. Deciding which commanders to prioritize adds another layer of strategy, especially when later encounters introduce more dangerous opponents and larger engagements. One of the game's more appealing features is the amount of variety packed into its modest scope. With 20 unique leaders, approximately 80 recruitable characters, and dozens of locations spread throughout the campaign, there is enough content to encourage experimentation. Different leaders lend themselves to different tactics, whether emphasizing overwhelming offense, defensive positioning, or balanced troop management. Players who enjoy optimizing party compositions will find satisfaction in discovering combinations that complement one another. The structure may be straightforward, but the number of potential approaches prevents the gameplay from becoming entirely predictable. Visually, You... and who else? embraces the aesthetic sensibilities of classic indie RPGs. Its presentation is modest and unmistakably budget-conscious, featuring colorful environments and functional interfaces that prioritize usability over spectacle. The game is not attempting to compete with large-scale strategy releases, and expectations should be adjusted accordingly. Character portraits and battlefield layouts are serviceable, while the soundtrack provides a fitting backdrop without becoming particularly memorable. There is a nostalgic quality to the overall package that longtime fans of independent PC games may appreciate, even if newer audiences find some aspects dated. The difficulty settings are another welcome inclusion, allowing players to tailor the experience to their preferred level of challenge. Higher difficulties require thoughtful resource allocation and a willingness to adapt strategies when circumstances change. Battles can quickly become punishing if players underestimate enemy strengths or rely too heavily on a single tactic. At the same time, overcoming a difficult encounter delivers a genuine sense of accomplishment. The campaign's estimated length of roughly 10 to 20 hours feels appropriate for the amount of content available, offering enough time for meaningful progression without overstaying its welcome. Despite its strengths, the game is not without limitations. Combat encounters can begin to feel repetitive over extended sessions, and the lack of a stronger narrative framework means there are fewer memorable character moments to break up the strategic gameplay. The interface occasionally reveals its age, and some quality-of-life improvements common in more recent strategy titles are absent. Players looking for cutting-edge mechanics or extensive customization options may come away wanting more. Nevertheless, these shortcomings are largely offset by the game's earnest design and commitment to delivering a focused tactical experience. Ultimately, You... and who else? is a niche title that understands its audience. It caters to players who enjoy traditional strategy games where success is earned through preparation and careful decision-making rather than fast reflexes or flashy presentation. Aldorlea Games has created a competent and enjoyable adventure that may not redefine the genre but offers enough tactical depth to remain engaging throughout its campaign. For fans of classic indie strategy and RPG hybrids, it serves as a pleasant reminder of a style of game that continues to have a dedicated following. Rating: 6/10

I guess I bought this by accident. I thought it was an RPG...not an tactical game with micro-management.
