Explore the fantasy world of Eador, a series of turn-based strategy games developed by Snowbird Games, where players unify shards and ascend to become the new Supreme Being.
Eador is a critically acclaimed series of turn-based strategy fantasy video games developed by the Russian independent studio Snowbird Games. The series, while niche, has earned praise for its thematic high fantasy setting and deep strategic gameplay.
The Eador series is set across multiple planes of existence in a high fantasy world that has been shattered into floating shards after the defeat of the previous Supreme Being. Players take on the role of a sovereign tasked with unifying these shards into one realm and ascending as the new Supreme Being.
Gameplay focuses on overland exploration and management, resource gathering, base building, spell research, hero recruitment, and turn-based tactical combat. Key features include a robust magic system, random event system, day/night cycle, changing seasons, and morality system that impacts the player's standing with certain factions.
While challenging for newcomers, Eador offers a rewarding fantasy war game experience for players looking for deep strategic gameplay. With its rich worldbuilding and lore across the elemental planes, it stands out for its original setting and mechanics compared to more mainstream titles in the 4X and tactical RPG genres.
