About

Another sunrise, another day of toil. Food must be grown, industries built, science and magic advanced, and wealth collected. Urgency drives these simple efforts, however, for the planet holds a history of unexplained apocalypse, and the winter just survived was the worst on record. A fact that has also been true for the previous five.

As the player discovers the lost secrets of the world and the mysteries of the legends and ruins that exist as much in reality as in rumor, players will come to see that they are not alone. Other people also struggle to survive, to grow, and perhaps even to conquer.

Players have a city, a loyal populace, and a few troops; Their power and magic should be sufficient to keep them alive.

Factions

The game features 9 unique factions representing different play styles and victory priorities.

The Vaulters

The Vaulters are the descendents of the crew of a crashed spacecraft. Having lived underground for generations, circumstances forced them above ground and they now seek to grow and return to the stars . This faction can select a strategic resource boost to exploit map resources. Units can teleport to other cities

(The Mezaris, a DLC faction, are functionally similar to the Vaulters)
