Games like Link Empire

Want something that feels minimalist and retro the way Link Empire does? These games are worth a look next.

Circle Empires
Circle Empires chops the RTS into bite-sized circles: conquer one, loot it, grow pumpkins, roll on to the next. Pick from 18 faction leaders, raise armies that level up, and hunt 12 boss monsters across procedurally generated worlds. Fast, colorful and easy to pick up, it turns world conquest into a snackable strategy fix.

Line War
Line War is a strategy game where you command by drawing: lines across the map move tanks, hold fronts and launch attacks. Built around planning rather than fast clicking, with random maps, territory to conquer and matches for up to eight players. If you like outthinking an opponent more than outclicking one, this is your kind of war.
