Wildermyth is somewhere between a tactical combat game and a role-playing game, and quite good.
Solasta: Crown of the Magister has caught my attention, but I haven't played it yet.
Dragon Age: Origins is good, and although not on sale, is old enough that full price is not bad. (I don't know if the EULA is tolerable, though; I don't think it was there when I played it.)
Solasta's campaign feels a little half baked in some ways, especially if you're coming from Baldur's Gate, but where it really shines is in building your own campaigns to run your friends through. It's a perfectly reasonable platform to host online D&D 5e in, especially with mods to expand the content. And there are plenty of user-created workshop campaigns to download, but in general, I wouldn't recommend it as a single player experience if that's what you're looking for. I absolutely do recommend it for group play.
