About Ozymandias
Ozymandias is a streamlined 4X strategy game about Bronze Age kings building the first empires. You expand your borders, place cities in tactical locations and raise armies to defend them. Each turn brings opportunities, but you can choose only one; complete its objective to earn a reward. Random victory conditions make each game different, while custom victory conditions let you choose different styles of play.
Strategy and combat
The game focuses on strategy over tactics and removes busywork from 4X gameplay. Combat uses an abstract Power system: you move armies and fleets, rather than directing individual battles.
Maps and empires
Eight handmade maps chart Bronze Age regions around the world. You can play as one of 52 empires, each with traits that create a distinct set of challenges.
Single-player
A short story campaign about the explorer Gertrude Bell teaches you how to play. You can also climb a difficulty ladder against data-driven AI that does not cheat to compete.
Multiplayer
Players take their turns simultaneously, avoiding waits between turns. Playing well earns Treasure in either “live” games, with short turn timers, or “asynchronous” games, with longer game timers.
