Description

HUMANKIND™ is a historical strategy game, where you’ll be re-writing the entire narrative of human history and combining cultures to create a civilization that’s as unique as you are.

CREATE YOUR CIVILIZATION



Combine up to 60 historical cultures as you lead your people from the Ancient to the Modern Age. From humble origins as a Neolithic tribe, transition to the Ancient Era as the Babylonians, become the Classical era Mayans, the Medieval Umayyads, the Early Modern era British, and so on. Each culture will add its own special gameplay layer, leading to near-endless outcomes.

MORE THAN HISTORY, IT’S YOUR STORY



Face historical events, take impactful moral decisions, and make scientific breakthroughs. Discover the natural wonders of the world or build the most remarkable creations of humankind. Each game element is historically authentic. Combine them to build your own vision of the world.

LEAVE YOUR MARK ON THE WORLD



The journey matters more than destination. Fame is a new and unifying victory condition. Every great deed you accomplish, every moral choice you make, every battle won will build your fame and leave a lasting impact on the world. The player with the most fame will win the game. Will you be the one to leave the deepest mark on the world?

MASTER TACTICAL BATTLES ON LAND, SEA & AIR



Each battle in HUMANKIND™ plays out like a mini turn-based board game on top of the actual world map. Unstack your armies and command each of your units, including the emblematic units of your culture and their special abilities. Construct siege weapons to besiege and occupy cities. Fight in large battles spanning multiple turns, and don’t hesitate to bring in reinforcements!

CUSTOMIZE YOUR LEADER



In HUMANKIND™, you’ll be playing the leader of your society as an avatar that you create and customize! Your avatar will evolve visually over the course of the game as your civilization develops. You’ll also be able to level up your leader via a meta-progression system to unlock custom looks that you can showoff to strangers and friends alike in multiplayer matches up to 8 players.

Played a few sessions really trying to give it a fair chance but no cheese. Was playing it a few notches above "normal" difficulty (empire difficulty) expecting it to be challenging-ish without knowing the mechanics of

People often call this a lesser version of the Civ series, but it feels distinct enough and in depth on mechanics that are staples of Amplitude's games to be a stand out on its own. Not a replacement for Civ but its

Game crashes randomly otherwise runs fast. Works on Linux first start, afterwards it crashes immediately on launch or after the Sega logo. Windows users have a lot of problems as well it's not just Linux.

Having played CIV all my life, and played many copy cats as well. I can say this game is good, if not great! Has the feel of a grand strategy game that takes some of the best of CIV and adds new elements that make it
