The playtest includes:

  • Quick Battle (about 15-20 minutes of playtime)

  • Skirmish, which will often be 30-60 minutes of playtime - involving capturing cities and building up your fleet after your initial battles.

These are each built with replayability in mind. You can customize your fleets, the map size, environment, number of cities, how many/how large the land masses are, and enjoy a multitude of battles.

I look forward to hearing from you on Steam or maybe even in the Discord server! Your rude opponents await.
