Be a pioneer to expand territories, be an innovator to foster study and research, or be a warmonger to raid using superior armaments. The choice is yours, and it is your strategic acumen that will shape the course of cultures and lead your people toward victory. Within the game, you will compete with other leaders to become the most prestige civilization throughout 3 epochs - ancient, medieval, and modern. You will introduce a total of 9 inventions to customize your civilization. In your turn, you can choose to expand your territories in the shared map, build a city, establish a trade route, do academic research, change the form of government, and build magnificent wonders to consolidate your authority. But cruelly, being peaceful is not always the best way to benefit your people, leaders can choose to declare wars to others within an epoch. A wise leader may have to prepare for the wars by improving military units. Immerse yourself in a reimagination of human history, where every decision carries weight and every action shapes the course of your civilization. Will you be remembered as a benevolent ruler, revered for your cultural achievements? Or will you carve out a legacy through conquest, leaving a trail of triumph in your wake? The fate of your people rests in your hands. Be a visionary leader and create a civilization that will stand the test of epochs.
