Microcivilization

Microcivilization is a pixel-art strategy and clicker game where you explore, expand, exploit and exterminate as you grow a population and build a powerful nation. You develop your economy, discover government combinations, collect hundreds of unique heroes and experiment with ability builds for combat and construction.

Grow your nation

You can build your strength through furious clicking or rely on your people’s productivity and workshops. Workshops provide passive and active abilities, while the technology tree unlocks upgrades, military units, bonuses and abilities to help your civilization grow and prepare for threats.

Face crises

Your people face hundreds of disasters and conflicts, including wars, diseases, social unrest, invasions and declarations of independence. Neglected risks can lead to crises: uninhabited houses create a chance of fire, while overcrowding can bring smallpox. You can see the chance of disasters occurring and take steps to mitigate those risks.

Crises are resolved through combat. You can extinguish fires, withstand or cure disease, and repel invasions. People are your life, the economy is your strength, and heroes are your weapons; workshop abilities also contribute to combat. Defeat is not the end: setbacks can lead to dark ages, famine or ideological turmoil, and overcoming crises can bring forth heroes.

Collect heroes

Heroes act as inventory items that boost your civilization’s power. You can equip only a handful at a time, but collecting them unlocks effects on industry, wealth, strength and stability. As you progress, you find higher-tier heroes, merge them using recipes and form sets for powerful effects.

Ascend through history

Reaching the game’s metaphorical stars requires tracing back to ancient ages several times, each with a higher purpose. The Ascension tree organizes challenges into difficulty tiers. Each tier adds features and more difficult enemies, while also opening access to stronger heroes, world wonders and ability modifications.
