Fantasy Civ Solo: Discovery and Doom
A downloadable game
Fantasy Civ Solo: Discovery and Doom is a solo 4x civilization style game where you’ll explore fantasy landscape full of monsters, discover wonders hidden in the wilds, expand your civilization across the land, and seek to keep your lands safe by exterminating your foes.
By the end of a game of Fantasy Civ Solo, you will have written the story of the rise – and possibly fall – of your civilization!
At the start of the game, you will pick an aspiration for your civilization. If your civilization accomplishes the aspiration, you win the game! If, at any point, your civilization controls no cities, you lose the game. Fantasy Civ Solo: Discovery and Doom plays in three turns.
- Civilization Turn. On this turn you'll collect resources, explore the map, buy upgrades or forts or cities, train military units, and move your military units to attack monsters. As you explore the map, you'll uncover more resources to collect, expand your military training options, and make epic discoveries. These discoveries can lead to all sorts of possibilities like allying with powerful entities, special actions to make heroes, or quests to complete.
- Map Turn. On this turn, monsters will move around the map, and attack the forts or cities you have created for the civilization.
- Doom Turn. On this turn you'll roll on the Doom Clock, and if it strikes, the Doom will arrive. The Doom is an extremely challenging "boss fight" for your civilization. If it arrives, good luck!
While playing Fantasy Civ Solo, you can explore the map and make discoveries like:
- Giant Boars - which allow you to create mounted military units, that offer more health, speed, and tusk attacks
- Dwarf Mine - which you can trade with or recruit military units from to fight for your civilization
- Treasure Map - which, if you are able to journey to where x marks the spot, offer a promising reward
- Wizard's Tower - which can offer great power, at a cost
- The Resting Place of the Golden Idol - which challenges you with trials of great sacrifice - but the idol itself has great powers of claimed
- 60 unique exploration results
You will also uncover monsters, including descriptions like:
- Brutish, clad in cold crude metal - but above all, smelly. They can be smelled from miles away, and the smell lingers...
- The creatures don't have skin, sinew, or muscle anymore. Only bones - bones that walk, run, scratch and tear.
- It is uncertain what they look like, for they wear rags and cloth made from the color of the night. They move in darkness, with the silence of shadows.
- At the center of a massive smoking crater is a dark, cracked stone. Movement can be seen coming out of it. A creature - near translucent - emerges, slowly oozing across the ground.
- 30 unique monster results
