StarCraft 2 Heart of the Swarm

StarCraft 2 Heart of the Swarm drastically differs from the gameplay style of the original StarCraft.  It breaks from a strictly Real Time Strategy style and features elements more akin to an Adventure or Role Playing Game.  The player is given many opportunities to make choices that will alter hero and unit abilities.  Some of which can be changed later on, but some cannot be altered, save starting a new campaign from the beginning.  The non-cimeatic character conversations are tailored to the choices you have made as well.

StarCraft 2 Heart of the Swarm, takes players on a campaign of vengeance against the series' main antagonist, Arcturus Mengsk.  The campaign mode, or story mode, delivers a very emotional journey featuring Sarah Kerrigan, the former Queen of Blades, and James Raynor, the hero from StarCraft 2 Wings of Liberty.  Along this journey, Kerrigan is forced to evolve not only the Zerg Swarm, but also herself.
