Description

Dawn of Discovery lets players establish and manage prosperous settlements across diverse landscapes, blending city‑building with real‑time strategy.

With deep economic systems and immersive adventure elements, it delivers a balanced mix of strategy and simulation.

The Nations is a real‑time strategy adventure where you choose one of three distinct races – the Pimmons, the Amazons, or the Sajikis – and guide them from humble beginnings to a thriving nation. Manage each individual’s habits and characteristics, expand your territory, discover new lands, and engage in strategic combat to dominate rivals.
