How it feels

A methodical, top-down strategy game where you slowly expand a wizard civilization across a procedurally generated galaxy, balancing resource gathering and building placement on a grid.

What players say

Players say it's more a logistics puzzle than a typical 4X, with unique mechanics that set it apart. The tutorial is weak and the learning curve is steep, but the game is still rewarding. Graphics and interface are rough.
