Welcome, friends, to The Battle of Polytopia, a unique, turn-based strategy game involving strange lands and charismatic tribes, clever technologies, and captivating magic where the ultimate goal is to rule the world. Obvs!
Scene: Enter the Square, the bizarre home planet of the Polytopians, a flat, square-shaped landmass drifting in the space of an alternate dimension to ours. A relatively simple and curious folk that has a penchant for fighting, the Polytopians are 16 individual tribes spread out across the Square, each with their own characteristics, motivations, strengths, and weaknesses. As a player, you will take on the role of the ruler of one of these tribes as you attempt to build your civilization in competition with the other tribes.
Will you choose to be the leader of the Xin-Xi, reserved yet adventurous traditionalists who are wary of change or outsiders? Perhaps the Hoodrick, who love archery, nature, and mushrooms, and are famed for their baked goods! Or maybe the Bardur, where the local tavern is their favorite place and Ullefurgh their drink choice, a delightful concoction of pine needles, hot water, and rabbit fat. Deeeelicious!!
But beware of the Vengir, purple rhino-pig riding warriors who, in between bouts of pillaging, like to sharpen their swords and vacation at the misty Kithkga Boneyards. You really don’t want to get on their bad side!
Apparent simplicity belies deep complexity.
It appears to be a simple strategy game, but if you get into it, you see the true nature of this game. It is a simple game with complex strategy and a great fanbase. If you want a strategy game that wont take 8 hours of your life each game, polytopia is a great choice.
I don't understand all the hype for this game. I've played three games of it and as far as I can tell, the factions are all nearly identical, only having different starting territory and one starting technology. Other than that, every faction has the same technologies and the game boils down to the same thing eventually. The gameplay is definitely enjoyable to a degree, but I feel like it would be significantly more interesting if there were more notable differences between factions like unique technologies, passive bonuses, unique units.
such a cool little game, diffs civ in my opinion. i would definitely recommend for a fun game with friends defenders are so OP bro.
Civ but for tards like me!
wicked sick
nice game to play with friends
I actually have a lot more time playing this cause I used to play the mobile version a lot before the PC version came out. I really enjoy the game and the strategic aspects each of the tribes has, along with the cutesy low poly graphics.
Simple and fun 4X game.
Playing this game for years over mobile, always an on-off game for me. Now seeing it on PC made me get it so i can play while waiting for something or someone. Really good time passer.
