Ozymandias: A Lightning-Fast 4X Game Unveiled by Oaken

Goblinz Publishing, renowned for titles like Overboss and Oaken, has released a new Android game: Ozymandias. This 4X strategy game, reminiscent of the Civilization series, offers exploration, expansion, exploitation, and extermination. Read on to learn more.

Blazing Speed!

Set in the Bronze Age, Ozymandias lets you explore diverse Mediterranean and European civilizations. While offering the strategic depth of a classic 4X game—city building, army raising, and conquering opponents—its unique selling point is its streamlined, rapid gameplay.

Unlike many 4X games that demand meticulous resource management, Ozymandias simplifies the process. Forget endless micromanagement; it's designed for speed. Really fast speed.

Eight detailed historical maps and 52 unique empires, each with distinct characteristics, ensure diverse gameplay experiences. Multiple modes are available: multiplayer, solo, and asynchronous.

A typical match concludes within 90 minutes, similar to a board game session. Simultaneous turns further accelerate gameplay. This simplification, however, might be perceived by some as overly simplistic. Intrigued? Check out the trailer below.

Ozymandias is available now on Android via the Google Play Store for $2.79. Developed by The Secret Games Company using Unreal Engine 4, it initially launched on Steam for PC in March 2022.
