Kingdom Elemental: Tactics has arrived on Archive Games! KE:Tactics takes core game play elements from real-time strategy, tactics, and role-playing games and combines them into a game that is painfully easy to pick up and play without committing your entire life, unless you have no life...in which case you may not find Kingdom Elemental to be an adequate substitute.

Kingdom Elemental features nigh unlimited number of possible tactics by pitting combinations of your upgradeable heroes and their unique abilities against hordes of unique enemies like GIANT RAT MOBS! Everyone loves giant rat mobs with their secret furry pockets full of gold and armor! Seriously no giant rat mobs, but thARR be Pirates! Giant War Pigs! A crypt full of living dead who are just begging to be killed.....again. Knights who no longer say "Ni!", a Flaming DOOM bear who would like nothing more then to BBQ you for lunch, and so much more! The demo is free to check out so you have nothing to lose...except maybe your soul. In short Kingdom Elemental Tactics is like a whack to the head with a +8 Sword of Awesomeness!

Game Tunnel wrote "Somewhere between tactical and real time strategy there exists a perfect blend. Kingdom Elemental may very well be it."

Check out the KE: Tactics page for more information, including a trailer.

Archive Games has added The Magic Toy Chest! Pick up and use 16 unique and wacky toys across 8 different rooms of the house. Solve over 100 puzzles using the physics and fun actions of each toy. Launch rockets, drive trucks, and fly helicopters into your toy box with simple point & click controls.

We've also added a new free game to the lineup: Oh No! More Invaders From Space.

(Oh No) More Invaders from Space is a Retro remake of the old time classic Space Invaders [(tm) TAITO] souped up with many many features. Graphically, it takes the following principles: "As much Eye-Candy as possible"!

The gameplay is following the basics as the original, but with many twists. Some features are: Power ups, extra weapons, online hiscores, save cattle from being kidnapped, cool music, and arcade cabinet friendly.
