About this game
Moonlords - Tides of Battle is a tug-of-war RTS with autonomous units, a focus on broader strategizing and watching said strategies unfold in a spectacular manner.
Learn each of the asymmetric factions, master their roster and combine it with neutral mercenaries to field the armies of your nerdy dreams.
Fight over Resources, gain the advantage through troop composition and considered maneuvering, build momentum for a push and surge against the enemy tower to achieve victory, while your opponent attempts the same. This tug-of-war is played out on a web of way points, which you can switch to steer your flow of troops across the map.
When the enemy is knocking on your walls, it is time to deploy your champions and conjure up a storm to push the pendulum back. Let your heroes lead the charge, but pick the right point of time and support them with spellcasting, so that they can grow their might.
Claim provinces to unlock new options, best the other factions over the remaining dry land and lead your people to victory in a procedurally generated campaign, designed for high replayability.
Engage in various team-based cooperative or competitive game modes with other people to goof around or test your mastery.
Experience a rich retro-fantasy setting permeated by magic. Celestial bodies that source the supernatural, apocalyptic tides, outlandish creatures - all rendered in a handcrafted, detailed pixel art style.
