War and Magic: Kingdom Reborn for mac download

Gameplay focuses on setting general goals for all your units without the need to micromanage each of them. With your unique powers, you can explore a procedurally generated world and connect floating lands to expand your kingdom.

You take on the role of a Mage Overlord with your own castle, tower, and a small realm on one of the landmasses.

Faced with the destruction of their entire civilization and life on the planet, the warring factions called a truce and tried to repair the damage – but it was already too late.

It's an odd mashup of Populus, Dungeon Keeper and Warcraft in a colourful setting”

The lack of micromanagement also lets you concentrate on casting magic spells. “It's a gentle gardening game where you nurture a city into existence, lassoing new districts with magic as you expand. “Driftland: The Magic Revival is a bit of a unique beast, being an RTS in the old mould of 'build stuff in real time and send units around to do war' Age of Empires style, but with several tweaks that makes anything but the basic buildings unrecognisable.”
