    Hey Guys,

    I'm feeling nostalgiac for all the amazing games that were built using the WC3 engine, games like Azeroth Wars, Castle Fight, World War Z, Tower Defences Etc.

    Now I know DOTA evolved into the MOBA genre, but what about the others i've mentioned? Like Hero Defences. Are there any good standalones that evolved from these? I'm not up to speed on the gaming market as I rarely purchase games, I kinda just stick to Eve and LoL, but i'd love to play a Co-Op strategy survival game sometime.

    So basically, what's the market like for RTS style games that reflect the glory days of Warcraft 3.

    Super disappointed that Wintermaul Wars isn't really a thing on the Starcraft Arcade.

    Speaking of which, Starcraft Arcade mode is free and there's probably a good few of those sorts of games available there.

    There's TDs like Squardron TD (never played but it's super popular), there's Desert Strike, which is a 3v3 where you build individual units in your building area and they spawn every 60 seconds and they attack your enemy's command center (there used to be something like it in WC3 except you attacked the Frozen Throne instead), there's plenty of RPG type games as well.

    There's 100's of them with 20-30 getting a lot of traffic.
