Live multiplayer browser strategy

Every citizen is a choice.
One dynasty wins.

Manage a population that ages, build stores that scale with your industry, and mine Gold to maintain the village and honour a machine-god. Complete your pyramid before rival rulers—but no winner can be declared before the Day 30 seal opens.

The world objective

Five phases.
One decisive finish.

Every dynasty enters the same Ascension race. Grow a four-resource economy, defend your people, and commit limited limestone and obsidian to five monument phases.

Raid a rival’s stores, damage their unfinished pyramid, or negotiate a pact while you prepare your next move. An early Capstone finish is sealed until Day 30; once the seal opens, the earliest completed monument wins.

Connected strategy systems

Every decision leaves a mark.

In a techno-mystic Egypt, your people, village, machine-god, and rivals create competing pressures. Strengthening one part of your strategy always costs time, resources, or citizens elsewhere.

01 Citizens of a Phratek dynasty

Living population

Manage citizens who age.

Assign working-age citizens to production, construction, the monument, or military service. Every commitment leaves fewer hands for another task.

02 The solar-tech Gold Mine

Gold & infrastructure

Build an economy that must keep moving.

Producer levels expand storage. Gold pays monthly civic maintenance, troop and voyage costs, and the tribute that sustains divine favour.

Compare all 13 buildings
03 Hathor-Aurum, machine-goddess of Gold and joy

Covenant & favour

Choose a power. Keep the covenant.

Choose one of twelve machine-gods. Pay the annual Gold tribute to restore favour, or watch boons fade while burdens intensify.

04 Ascendant Logistics research emblem

Research & prophecy

Commit to a path through the age.

New in Alpha 1.3

A deeper economy. A longer ascent.

Gold connects infrastructure, military, trade, and divine favour. Expanded covenants and research give every dynasty more ways to sustain—or overextend—its plan.
