About the Game

-- A long time ago seven kingdoms lived in friendship and prosperity. Well. Sort of. They argued and bickered and schemed a lot. But they only fought under strict rules of Golem Wars. Until one time, one little girl decided that it would be a good idea to read a Soulwork spell while holding the most powerful artifact in all Lumisfera and broke the world apart.
-- I can hear you, stupid cat!
-- I very much hope so, Your Majesty. I'll be counting on your perfect hearing. Will you please veer slightly to the left to avoid crashing into those rocks?
-- ...Can I really do it? Make it right again?
*sigh
-- Of course you can, little one. I put my trust in you.

Gameplay

Venture into the far reaches of the Aether sea to reclaim the broken land. Control your island, crash into and fight the enemy factions, capture their hexes, buildings and resources - and then make the best use of them while managing your kingdom in this unique RTS.

Features

  • Cute little hexagon islands! Build your own empire on the island floating in the Aether

  • Many unique unit types! Collect some low level unit barracks to get immediate power boost, or pick the rare lair you will only be able to employ later? Your choice!

  • Make building combos! Merge low-tier spawners and put special buildings nearby to make the most efficient army utilizing limited resources and space

  • Auto battles between numerous armies! Use magic spells, skills and siege buildings to help in combat.

  • Keyboard-controlled RTS just as you all like (but this time we actually added mouse support!)
