Surrounded by Death

Surrounded by Death is a sidescrolling castle-building real-time strategy game. After Death defeats Imperim in battle after battle, your people are left alone and surrounded. You build and manage a city, raise an army and defend your subjects against the hordes and portals closing in.

Rule the castle

Build houses and clinics, work to keep your inhabitants pleased, and develop the city’s economy. Assign workers, distribute food rations to your subjects and trade. You also manage events such as drought and plague, hire a magician to collect magic points, conduct research to develop your city, and capture or destroy abandoned cities.

Defend your subjects

Build an army and fight countless hordes. Prepare for the arrival of a large horde and secure your subjects, while killing nearby enemies to make more space. Destroy all the portals around you to prevent Death from reaching you.
