What do you think?

1.Do you remember me? I was playing with you on saturday with INDIE, isefol, HelloKitty and GeorgBell.

2.I dont know if they said it, but INDIE has youtube channel with over 1000 subs, so maybe he will tell his subs about your game(but im not sure).

3.I would like to help you with your game, by translating it on russian language, i am not good at programming, but i am sure that I would not need those skills for translating. I already did some kind of translating modification for the game called Cosmoteer, and i used only notepad document with examples of what phrases should I translate. I hope you will let me do this.

4.The only thing that I am afraid of, that your game do not understand russian letters at all(they become sqares with "?" inside)

P.S. sorry for my english, I live in russia.

Epicinium is a strategy wargame where nature is a finite resource. Is it worth winning a war when you end up conquering nothing but dirt and ash?

Combat destroys grass and crops, and trees are trampled as tanks drive towards your opponent to level their cities. Industry accelerates global warming to ludicrous levels, causing more destruction the longer the game goes on. At the end of the game, the winner is scored for how many grass and forest tiles remain on the map.

Out now!

Epicinium is out now for Windows, MacOS and Linux on itch.io​ and Steam​!

Epicinium is made by A Bunch of Hacks, the Netherlands' first worker cooperative for game development. Want to have a chat with us or meet other players? Join our Discord community!

How to play

Epicinium is a multiplayer strategy game with simultaneous turns. Each turn consists of a planning phase, where all players decide which orders they want to give their units that turn, followed by an action phase, where players watch as the the orders play out.

Units will automatically attack enemy units they encounter; they will also fire back when attacked and attack any unit that moves away from them. Some units have abilities that allow them to bombard tiles, randomly dealing damage to whomever and whatever is present at that time. Anticipating your opponent's orders is key.

Between rounds, the season changes which might bring about new weather effects such as snow, drought or firestorm. At night, buildings can gain power and generate income. Cities only gain power if surrounded by enough grass, forest, water and crops, whereas barracks and industry grow larger when additional cities are placed nearby.

To defeat your opponent, capture or destroy all of their City tiles.
