About

THE FIGHT FOR A DYING SUN

There is no space for defeat. Defeat means death on the battlefield or the end of our search for the last rays of a dying sun. We must escape these bitter, glacial wastelands and find a new home. A new future.

Last Days of Old Earth is a turn-based strategy game set in a far future world where the sun is dying. The remnants of humanity must migrate once a generation towards the equator where it is still warm enough to sustain life.

Last Days of Old Earth invites you to become the leader of the human Skywatchers or the robotic Automata, two fundamentally opposed factions. In a hostile environment, where natural resources are almost depleted, you must fight your way to survive for one more turn. With scarcity goes rivalry, and only the law of the wild applies in this icy and desolate world.

Features

  • Explore the frost-covered ruins of the far future, discovering settlements and ruined cities of a once-thriving cilization. Discover and exploit resources to build your armies and defeat your opponents.
  • Play as the Skywatchers Clan, the last inheritors of the once-great human legacy, or as the mysterious Automata, the robotic sentinels created by a vanished civilization for an unknown purpose - two different factions with very different play-styles.
  • Play with your customized powerful army decks or select pre-made ones. Build specialized decks or find the right balance between heroes, infantry, artillery, air and armored units, then take on opponents both online and off.
  • Follow the iconic leaders of the Skywatchers Clan through a full, story-driven, mission-based single player campaign, revealing more about the unique lore of the game.
  • Fight your opponent’s army in thrilling turn-based battles, where smart tactics and clever deployment can tilt the odds, even against foes with superior numbers.
  • Sneak up on your opponent’s hero to assassinate them or destroy building facilities to thwart your enemy’s best laid plans thanks to stealth mechanics.
  • Strike at the heart of your opponent's forces from the air, softening up their armies or send out aircraft to scout and investigate unexplored areas of the map, quickly revealing the enemy's plans.
  • Upgrade your building structures with new facilities and defense systems.
  • Deploy 24 unique heroes to lead your armies with powerful game-twisting special abilities.
  • Heroes and Units have special abilities: use them to your advantage and discover the best synergies and tactics that suit your play style.
  • Make smart use of terrain! Climb hills and mountains to gain increased line of sight, and hide in forests and ruins to shield your forces from attack.
  • A skirmish mode that uses a randomly-generated map system, offering a different theatre of war every single game.
  • Challenging but 100% fair AI opponents.
  • A rich multiplayer offering, to take the hard-earned skills from single player, into the online arena.

Last Days of Old Earth reviews and comments

Very quickly, the game could have been taking:-the graphics are friendly-it's really cold! We are caught in the sound and musical atmosphere. -The system of mini resource management/purchase of unit cards/purchase of initiative/displacement/creation of armies seems to me to be interesting... BUT at 1min30 (timed time) of reflection of the AI at every turn, I just say no! It was after 4 hours of play that I started to find it very heavy; Obviously it was too late to get reimbursed! Not to mention bugs encountered, like a hexagon who has the gift to make the units disappear!!!

Last days of old earth is a strategy and tactics game and anticipation there are games that are very pleasant surprises, well, this is the case here. The Sun is dying, the Earth is getting cold. Only the equatorial areas are livable. You're playing a tribe trying to win this Equatorial zone. On your way you will meet several opponents, it will not be nice and try to save everyone, there is not enough room for all. So it's them or you! In addition to tactical combat management, you have with maps a choice of units or generals to lay out in the field. You will find on the map treasures, random events but also resources. Exploit them, this will allow you to operate them and use them for negotiations. Overall, this game is a real success. The design is more than perfect, the story holds the road and the game succeeds in its mission since it brings much pleasure to play there. To read all of my impressions on last days of old earth.

Early Access Review Please Put on warm! Things get bitterly cold in this new science fiction game. Last Days of Old Earth takes us into a post-apocalyptic World. Our Sun is dying, and all Life on the Planet is in Danger. Humanity's last Survivors are desperately moving to the few warm Regions that still exist. Along the Way, they encounter enemy Combat Robots that they must get out of the Way. The new Lap Strategy game Last Days of Old Earth combines the Colonization of a Strategy map in the Hexfeld Draster With tactical Battles on battle maps, on which the Military Units are placed in two Rows on fixed Locations opposite each other. For the Success of The game, you have to Combine skill in exploring the Ice world and tapping Resources with Cube Luck and the clever Management of a Deck of cards. Publisher Slitherine released the Title in an early access version on March 3. Many Features will be added, including a Campaign mode for the Game's Story, air, espionage and sabotage units, and the Ability to assemble a Deck of cards for personal Preference before Party Art. The Game is still only in English. But I was able to Find out by Consulting with Slitherine that the Title is expected to be available in 2-4 Months in German. I show a short video series about Last Days of Old Earth on my YouTube channel, which specializes in new releases of PC strategy games. In Doing so, I will present and explain the most important Features. Below is the first Episode! https://youtu.be/Fv1JIRKwDBA
