About the game
Stratagia Online
Stratagia Online is a strategy game set in a world of sixteen states, each with its own capital. You start as a lord with a single town and a Town Hall, and you make it the seat of an empire of many cities.
Grow food, wood, stone and iron, and collect gold in taxes. Train troops, hire heroes to lead them and march on barbarian towns, valleys and other lords. Join an alliance, take historic cities and make rivals your colonies. Everyone plays on the same world map, in the browser on a desktop or a phone.

Early access to an unfinished game
This is an alpha
Stratagia Online is being built in the open, and you can play it long before it is finished. You get to watch it grow and help shape it, but it also means almost everything is still moving. Expect rough edges, bugs and updates that change how things work.
Accounts will be wiped
Every account, city and item from the alpha and the beta will be wiped before the official launch, so everyone starts the real game on the same footing and nobody walks in with a head start.
So don’t treat the alpha or the beta as a long-term save.
Art
Some of what you see is early or placeholder art, there to make the game playable while the final art is made.
Balance
Costs, build times, combat and rewards are tuned all the time. Something strong today may not be tomorrow.
Features
New systems arrive and existing ones change as the game grows.
Free to play
Play for free
Stratagia Online is free to play, in your browser, with nothing to install. Optional purchases are planned.
