Isometric Games
Isometric games are those that use a specific technique to represent three-dimensional space on a two-dimensional screen. In such games, objects and characters are displayed in perspective, creating a sense of depth and volume, while maintaining ease of perception and control. This style is most commonly used in strategy games, role-playing games, and some adventure games. One of the main advantages of the isometric perspective is its ability to simultaneously showcase a large volume of space while providing a high level of control over character actions. Isometric games became popular in the 1990s, and even today, they remain relevant due to their unique aesthetic and gameplay convenience. In this section, you will find not only classic examples of the genre but also modern games that use isometric projection.
