Atrium

Atrium is a strategy game about building the largest empire. You build castles, establish trade routes or take other players’ work, and develop builders into an army or train mages. It supports up to four players on the same computer, or play against three AI opponents.

Setting

In 476, the Western Roman Empire is in decline, and invasion by Germanic tribes is described as inevitable. The Patricians have fled, leaving a brief silence in the Atrium, the room where they once gathered and feasted. The game draws on the construction of the Theodosian walls and features cities resembling later European castles, placing its setting before the sack of Rome, at the symbolic beginning of the Middle Ages.

Build your empire

You take control of roads and castles and attack enemy territories. Builders can evolve, and you choose a strategy using eight builder classes to form a powerful army or train mages. The game also lets you customize it entirely.

Game modes

Play with up to four players on the same computer, or face three AI opponents.
