Eador. Masters of the Broken World

Eador is a fantasy universe of separate land shards, each with its own geography and inhabitants. You take the role of an immortal Master competing with other Masters for control and shaping the fate of these worlds.

Conquer provinces and send heroes to explore them, uncovering locations, treasure, monsters, and encounters. You can develop your territories while deciding how to spend limited resources on buildings, armies, and other needs.

Heroes gain experience and develop along different class paths, while buildings unlock units, spells, and abilities. Battles are turn-based and tactical, and choices about how you rule can influence the story and the forces available to you.

Players who enjoy deep, demanding turn-based strategy praise the tactical battles, where positioning and unit abilities matter, along with hero progression and the rewards of exploring provinces. Some also value the strategic choices and replayability. Opinions are mixed, with recurring complaints that the long buildup and repeated encounters can become tedious.
