"Ancient Empires" — a classic turn-based tactics game, faithfully rebuilt for Android. The Kingdom of Thorin is divided: betrayed by his own twin brother Valadorn, King Galamar has fled into the eastern borderlands with only the loyal Blue Guard at his side. Lead them back, reclaim the kingdom — and then keep playing far beyond the story.
Remember Ancient Empires — the legendary Java game from the button-phone era? This is its faithful modern remake: the same rules, the same units, the same health pips, the same atmosphere — rebuilt for Android. And this version is genuinely comfortable to play.
THREE STORY CAMPAIGNS — 22 MISSIONS
Play through the storylines of all three Ancient Empires games, every mission running under the original Ancient Empires rules: 22 missions with briefings, story scenes and varied objectives — escort, rescue, siege, survival, capture — not just "destroy everyone".
235 SKIRMISH MAPS
Quick battles on 235 hand-crafted maps, most supporting 2-4 players in any mix of humans and AI.
HOT-SEAT MULTIPLAYER
Play with friends on one device — up to 4 players per map.
SMART AI
Three difficulty levels (easy, normal, hard). The hard bot coordinates attacks and focuses fire — it was tuned through thousands of self-play games.
FULL-FEATURED MAP EDITOR
A real map editor right on your phone: draw terrain, place buildings and units, mix landscape themes down to a single tile, build large maps up to 32×32 tiles — then play your map straight away and share it via export/import.
THE ORIGINAL RULES
- Victory is the enemy king's head: cut him down and the battle is yours — no need to hold every castle on the map.
- Your king is your leader. He captures castles and farms, and he must stand on a castle to recruit troops — so guard him well, because his death is your defeat.
- 9 recruitable unit types: Soldier, Archer, Lizard, Wizard, Wisp, Spider, Golem, Catapult, Wyvern.
- Health in pips, 0 to 10, and the original damage formula — a wounded attacker strikes weaker, so every pip counts.
- Units earn experience in battle and rise through ranks, striking harder and holding out longer as they go.
- The Wizard raises skeletons from graves, the Spider's bite is poisonous, the Wisp strengthens allies around it and burns the undead.
- The Lizard swims fast but crawls on land, the Wyvern flies over anything, the Archer strikes from 2 tiles away, the Catapult from 4.
- Terrain matters: forests, hills, mountains, water and roads change defense and movement.
- Economy: capture castles and farms for gold, and heal 2 pips per turn on your own buildings.
SPECTACULAR BATTLE SCENES
Every fight plays out as a gorgeous full-screen battle scene, just like in the original game: squads clash in melee, arrows and spells fly, the ground shakes on impact — pure pixel-art eye candy that never gets old.
The map is alive too: units march across the field, idle, take hits — movement and battles work exactly like in the classic Ancient Empires, smooth and polished.
Fully configurable: toggle fight, idle, water and smoke animations, switch between 5 landscape themes at any time, and tune the game speed to your taste.
MADE FOR TOUCH
A genuinely comfortable interface: map zooming with familiar gestures, smooth panning and a clean screen with nothing in the way.
AND MORE
- Save / load with autosave, undo your move, round counter.
- Separate volume controls for music, battle sounds and UI.
- Available in 21 languages: English, Russian, Swedish, German, French, Spanish, Finnish, Danish, Norwegian, Belarusian, Ukrainian, Polish, Serbian, Czech, Portuguese (Brazil), Turkish, Filipino, Indonesian, Vietnamese, Chinese (Simplified), Japanese.
- Works offline.
