Valiant Hearts: The Great War

The First World War is now over a hundred years ago. It's hard for us to really know what it was like for the ordinary people caught up in it. This game depicts this with 4 different characters experiencing the conflict, on both sides. To make sure it was accurate as possible, the developers did a lot of research. They looked at first-hand accounts and letters from the period.

Kerbal Space Program

Many things are said not to be rocket science, but this game certainly is as you get the chance to learn about science and build realistic rockets. This is for the fictional green Kerbals who dream of going interstellar. Once, you have built them, you can start your own missions. The game has its own solar system for you to explore at your own pace. Be careful as the one wrong move in the building process can lead to your rocket blowing up mid-flight. If you get good at the game, you can even build space stations in orbit or bases on other planets.
