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.

DISTILLED DESIGN
Focus on strategy over tactics, we’ve stripped the busywork out of 4X gameplay.
Combat abstracted into an innovative Power system, you only move armies and fleets.

52 empires to play, traits give each a unique set of challenges.

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

Very good game, a simplified and more abstract Civ style game which works well on mobile and keeps each game pretty short. I do wonder how much longevity it will have as while there are a lot of maps each game does feel very similar once you get past the early game. And word of warning, never pick the card that gives you a tech for wiping out another empire, it messes my game up every time.

-issue solved- I really love the game. Lovely strategy game. Will change to 5 star when bug is fixed. There is a difficulty issue on Aegan sea map on android. There are 3 playable empire (myceans and trojans difficulty "normal") and the minoans, described as "easy". But it's actually harder than the "very hard" option, even near impossible. I have won on every map with every empire available, but this one seems really off. Very hard to not get stomped by the bot on scholar difficulty.
