You’ve probably never heard of Jesse Attard, but he’s a man with a pedigree. After all, he was the project lead onBioShock 2‘s multiplayer. With that game now wrapped up, Attard has founded Tactic Studios, a new developer that has just launched its first ever title,Immortal Empire.
Immortal Empireis a completely free strategy game, playable in one’s browser, similar to games likeEvony. However, unlikeEvony,Immortal Empireis actually rather good. It’s similar toDawn of Warin that it’s about a few powerful units as opposed to grand armies, but it’s a turn-based affair. It reminds me ofAstonishia Storyin its gameplay, an RPG that a lot of people disliked but I actually loved.
It costs absolutely nothing, and it’s worth checking out. There’s a premium charge of $10 to access all the classes, but the main game can be played through for free. Pick one of nine unique and bizarre character classes, recruit up to four other characters, and complete quests to earn loot and acquire more power. Simple stuff, but pretty damn fun so far.
