About this game
When an army travels back in time to rule the world 1,000 years in advance, they get more than they bargained for from their primitive counterparts! Lead the resistance with hundreds of warriors from different cultures all over the world. Focus on one individual or step back to command an entire army at your fingertips. Combining world-dominating strategy with fully interactive battles, this game offers the best of both worlds. And just when you think it's over, history might just repeat itself! Multiple choice dialogue lets you have your say and helps to explain every exciting development in real-time.
For the first time ever, the original touch-screen mobile app has been adapted for a controller in battle - while mouse clicks let you precisely navigate every corner of the globe. If you prefer, you can also blow off steam in fantasy battles between any 2 cultures with as many warriors as you can handle! An editor even allows you to save your changes to the hundreds of characters representing each culture.
Hundreds of characters representing dozens of cultures past & present!
Dozens of unique locations spanning ever corner of the globe!
Command each warrior individually or zoom out to direct the action!
Sophisticated combat system perfected by wrestling!
Hundreds of authentic weapons from the past, present & future!
Fully interactive vehicles include tanks and catapults!
