Goblinz Publishing, renowned for titles like Overboss and Oaken, has launched its latest Android game: Ozymandias. This 4X strategy game, reminiscent of the Civilization series, offers exploration, expansion, exploitation, and extermination. Read on for a closer look.
Blazing Fast Gameplay
Set in the Bronze Age, Ozymandias lets you explore diverse ancient Mediterranean and European civilizations. While retaining the strategic depth of a classic 4X game—city building, army raising, and conquering rivals—its unique selling point is its streamlined, rapid pace.
Unlike many 4X games that demand meticulous resource management, Ozymandias simplifies the process. Forget endless micromanagement; this game prioritizes speed. Matches are surprisingly quick.
Eight detailed historical maps feature 52 distinct empires, each with unique characteristics that demand adaptable strategies. Multiple game modes are available, including solo, multiplayer, and asynchronous options.
A typical game concludes within 90 minutes, resembling a board game session in length. Simultaneous turns further accelerate gameplay. However, this simplification might make the game feel too easy for some players. Intrigued? Watch the trailer!
Ready to Conquer?
Ozymandias is available now on Android via the Google Play Store for $2.79. Developed by The Secret Games Company using Unreal Engine 4, it initially launched on Steam for PC in March 2022.
