Theme:

Fantasy, Managerial, Real-time

Build your own medieval town and defend the castle from enemies. The game is a kind of mix of Civilization and other similar games (real-time strategy) in combination with a 3D graffiti. You have to take good care of your castle and master the micromanagement that belongs to it (food supply, training of soldiers, creation of a market, magic school, etc.)

You recruit and train Fighters, Thieves, Clerics and Magic Users to venture out and claim more land and resources, which include removing hostile forces. Take control of food supply and the production and management of buildings including castles, markets and magic schools.

Your victory condition is based on your alignment: Lawful players must advance to the rank of Emperor, Chaotic players must destroy all enemy strongholds, and Neutral players must do both!
