  • Construct over 25 unique building types, each upgradeable across four levels except the Story-Exclusive ones.

  • Terraform Lake Texcoco, dig canals, and reclaim precious land from the marsh.

  • Raise divine monuments, academies, and gardens.

Honor the Gods, or Pay the Price

  • Perform rituals and human sacrifices to earn divine protection

  • Answer the gods' offerings when they come for tribute. Fail them and risk losing godly Grace!

  • Balance the favor of the gods, your economy, and survival itself

End the Long Night

  • Face the Moon Goddess and her generals in a story-driven campaign.

  • Discover the ancient Sun Pillar and raise its modules to push back her power, and see the sun again

  • Confront her at last in a showdown for the fate of Tenochtitlán

Reach Beyond the Valley

Play Your Way
