ABOUT THE GAME

Eador: Genesis is a medieval fantasy turn-based strategy/role-playing game, that deliberately retains an "old school" look with its 2D graphics.

Eador is a universe made of countless shards of land drifting in the Great Nothing. Each of the shards is a little world unto itself, with geography and citizens of its own. The power over the shards is bitterly contested by Masters, the immortal beings mortals believe to be gods.

Gameplay
Take the role of a mighty Master and shape the destiny of Eador, on land and within the astral plane itself. Explore the land and rule provinces as you see fit, defend them, and keep the populace in line or they may rebel. Choose from thousands of items--swords, spells, weapons, armor, and more--to outfit the heroes you recruit so they may best meet any challenge. Keep your heroes healthy and they will grow stronger as they gain experience from battle. Forge alliances and engage in the delicate art of diplomacy as you negotiate trade agreements or wage war against a mutual foe. Eador with its many wonders and adventures awaits, will you answer the call?

Exploration
World maps are randomly generated and are comprised of provinces. The player does not directly control a Hero's movement within a province, Heroes can be ordered to explore territory, and if a special location is encountered, enter it to get a quest, buy items or battle with hostile monsters. The more explored territory a province has, the more income the player will get from it, and the population will also be more content. Special locations and combat encounters can usually be left for the player to enter at any time, so that battles with more powerful monsters may be postponed until a hero and his troops have levelled up accordingly.
