About the Game

Monument is a medieval turn-based strategy game. You start with just a town center and need to expand and construct a variety of buildings to collect enough resources to construct the titular monument. Finding suitable terrain and natural resources to scavenge can prove challenging with the constant onslaught of raiders trying to tear down  everything you just built. Your goal is to gather resources, mount a defense force, beat back the attackers and survive long enough to consctruct the monument.

A game of Monument lasts about 30 minutes. After each victory you unlock a higher difficulty. Each difficulty poses a new challenge to overcome, with the higher difficulties requiring great mastery of the game. A fun challenge for all strategic masterminds out there.
