Goblinz Publishing, renowned for titles like Overboss and Oaken, has released its latest Android game: Ozymandias. This 4X strategy game, reminiscent of the Civilization series, offers exploration, expansion, exploitation, and extermination. Let's delve into what makes it stand out.

Blazing Fast Gameplay

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

Unlike many 4X games that overwhelm players with micromanagement, Ozymandias simplifies resource management. This focus on speed results in incredibly quick gameplay.

Eight detailed historical maps and 52 unique empires with distinct characteristics ensure replayability and strategic variety. Multiple game modes are available, including solo, multiplayer, and asynchronous options.

A typical match concludes within 90 minutes, making it perfect for a quick gaming session akin to a board game. Simultaneous turns further accelerate the pace. While this simplification might feel too basic for some, it's worth a look!

Ready to Conquer?

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.
