A multiplayer strategy game set in Ancient Greece, played in your browser, and it isn't boring. Build your city, join an alliance, go to war. Walk into the tavern, fish off the jetty, have AI carve your monument. On iPhone and Android too.
Hey Product Hunt,
I’m Levent, and I make ENOMOTIA under TRUETHINKS LTD. It's a multiplayer strategy game set in ancient Greece. You start with one city on an Aegean island. Your neighbours are other players. You can trade with them, join their alliance or end up fighting over a port. As your city grows, you can send ships out to settle other islands. Close the browser and your ships keep sailing.
One thing I wanted was something to do while those ships are at sea. My favourite is fishing off the jetty. You cast a line, watch the float and pull when it dips. Every so often you haul up an amphora instead of a fish. The game uses AI to paint it when you catch it, so each one looks different.
You can also wander into the tavern. Serve more drinks and the tables fill up. There's someone in the corner playing the lyre. Stick around until evening and you'll see the city after dark. Keep an eye on your citizens, though. Let them get unhappy enough and they'll revolt and stop paying taxes.
The game uses AI in a few other places too. You can describe a monument, a portrait or a crest for your alliance and have it made for you. If you think a battle went the wrong way, you can ask the AI referee to look at it. It explains why you lost and what you could have done differently.
You can play for free in your browser or on your phone, in five languages. Troops and resources aren’t for sale.
If you give it a try, I'd love to hear how your first city goes. And I'm curious: when you've stopped playing a strategy game in the past, what made you stop logging in?
