10 Video Games To Play If You Love Game Of Thrones
6. The XCOM Series
A science fiction strategy game set during a global alien invasion in the near future may seem like a strange recommendation for a Game of Thrones fan.
However, with the impending invasion of the White Walkers after they find a way to cross The Wall drawing parallels with the intense and relentless alien attacks in XCOM, there are more similarities than one would initially think.
Instead of The Seven Kingdoms, the player has to manage a group of countries called the Council of Nations has banded together, fight back against a seemingly unstoppable enemy. An aspect of the game that shines, is the ability to name and customize your soldiers.
This is a unique and clever way for you to become attached to your soldiers as they level up, making their loss in battle both unpredictable, and meaningful. The loss of meaningful characters and the sense that no one is safe has been a staple of Game of Thrones since the very first season.
