Game description
Earth of Oryn is an indie city-builder/strategy game set in a medieval world filled with story and heart.
Build your kingdom however you see fit. Will you inspire and lead your people with kindness and generosity... or command them with an iron fist and crush dissents beneath your heel?
Starting from nothing, you must shape your kingdom perfectly to your vision while managing the needs and wants of your people.
