Month-Long Rounds
Each round is a finite story. Empires rise, ally, betray, and fall within thirty days. Then the map is drawn again.
Atlas of the Ruin · Round XLVII
Ruinkeep
Conquer · Trade · Reign
A multiplayer empire strategy game played in month-long rounds. Build your economy, raise your armies, manipulate the market — and crush anyone who stands in your way.
I · The Realm
Six features, one chronicle.
Turn-Based Economy
Accumulate turns while you sleep. Spend them on land, industry, or military — every choice ripples through the market.
Open Market, Open War
Manipulate the exchange. Undercut rivals. Corner the grain supply before the next invasion. Trade is as sharp as steel.
Clans, Wars, Diplomacy
Forge pacts. Declare war. Break treaties. Every alliance is a bet that your partners won't knife you when they could.
Wonders & Quests
Race the realm to build a Wonder. Chase quest chains for lasting renown. Leave something that outlasts your reign.
A Living Chronicle
Battles, taunts, crises, and betrayals are logged in the Herald. History isn't written by winners here — it's livestreamed.
II · How to reign
A round unfolds in four moves.
- I
Stake a claim
Choose a race, pick a name, and raise your banner on an empty patch of land. The round is already underway.
- II
Build, trade, scheme
Spend turns on exploration, construction, and training. Read the market. Watch your neighbors. Wait for the opening.
- III
Strike
Attack, spy, or cast. Every action becomes a rumor the whole realm hears. Fortune favors the patient — but glory favors the bold.
- IV
Reign or fall
End the round ranked. Claim dynasty medals that persist across ages. Then the map is drawn again.
The map is being drawn.
A new round is already underway. Stake a claim, raise a banner, and see if your name survives the chronicle.
