About this game

Build an empire in a single sitting. All the strategy of a classic 4X in a faster format

At the dawn of history, Bronze Age kings built the first empires. Strategize their rise to power in a uniquely streamlined 4X. Expand your borders, build cities in tactical locations then raise armies to defend them. Each turn, you receive opportunities but must choose only one, complete the objective to earn the reward. Random victory conditions make every game different; custom victory conditions support different styles of play.

An absolutely brilliant game. Fits perfectly alongside my best strategy games. If you enjoy Slay, Antiyoy, polytopia, civilization, etc. Don't pass on this one. Brilliant mechanics in this 4X! Only one hope I have for the future is randomly generated maps. The variety is there but being thrown into a random map would give this infinite replayabilty for me. Worth every penny!

Beautiful example of doing a lot with a little. While the game is functionally not a lot more than a spreadsheet with a bunch of formulas, it still manages to be a complete, engaging, and challenging 4x. The simple elegance of the design is a wonderful contrast to the bloat that has become the norm in bigger games. Highly recommended!

Very Confusing at first and still even after playing for a while, something to tell you what resources your getting from where would be nice so you can see what to upgrade and what's doing well, also would be nice to have a autosave feature because my phone normaly freezes at turn 30/40 and if I forget to save its gone for good, apart from that it's a good game just feels kind of empty with only cities, maybe other tiles like forts could help fill gaps where a city isn't a good spot
