Build and lead a thriving settlement through millennia of human history in Agecraft. Manage citizens, grow your economy, and compete or cooperate with other states as you advance technology from ancient times into space exploration.
About this game
Agecraft is a real-time city-building strategy game spanning multiple historical epochs. Start with a small prehistoric community and grow it into a world power that reaches the stars.
Manage a real population where every citizen needs a home and a job. Build an economy based on physical logistics with resources produced, stored, and hauled where they’re needed. Trade with neighboring settlements, build alliances, or wage war for control of their regions.
Each new era transforms how your people live, work, fight, and die. What you build will echo in history.
BUILD THROUGH HISTORY
Progress through the Stone and Bronze Ages, Antiquity, the Middle Ages, the Renaissance, the Industrial Age, the Modern era, and beyond. Each age introduces new technologies, materials, buildings, production chains, infrastructure, and military capabilities.
Your state changes along the way. Choose new leaders, peoples, and forms of government as you decide what kind of civilization it will become.
TAKE CARE OF YOUR PEOPLE
Every citizen has a job, a home, health, and needs of their own. They need food, water, warmth, clothing, and medical care. Seasons set the deadline and force you to plant, harvest, and stockpile to have enough when winter comes. The bigger the settlement, the more mouths you have to feed.
MANAGE CITY LAYOUT AND ECONOMY
The economy runs on physical logistics. Your people gather, process, and deliver resources between workshops and farms on your land. The placement of warehouses and roads decides the efficiency of your entire settlement. Poor planning can create bottlenecks that will destabilize your entire economy.
DEAL WITH NEIGHBORS
Other settlements grow alongside yours across the surrounding regions. Trade with your neighbors, exchange gifts, strike deals, wage war, make peace, or convince them to join your state. Trust and fear shape every relationship, and what you do will be remembered for generations.
SEND YOUR PEOPLE TO WAR
Your armies are made up of people living in your settlements. Send them to defend your territory, raid your enemies, or conquer new regions. Plan campaigns on the strategic map, then give your troops tactical orders in 3D battles. Every soldier you recruit is a worker pulled from the economy, and every casualty is a citizen you lose.
REBUILD FOR A NEW ERA
History doesn’t stand still, and neither will your civilization. Industries that defined one age become obsolete in the next. Each new era forces you to rethink what you built and reshape your state to meet the demands of the changing world.
KEY FEATURES
Guide a civilization across eight historical epochs, from the Stone Age to the Space Age.
Manage individual citizens who have jobs, homes, and everyday needs.
Build physical logistics and production networks shaped by landscape and distance.
Adapt agriculture and stockpile food to prepare your people for winter.
Explore and conquer a procedurally generated world filled with neighboring civilizations.
Trade, negotiate, form agreements, wage war, or integrate with other settlements.
Shape your historical path by choosing new peoples, states, and leaders as the ages change.
Raise an army from your population, and find a way to balance war needs and economic growth.
Reinvent your civilization as every new epoch transforms its foundation.
