Empires is a roguelite campaign across ten historical last stands, 480 BC to 1453. You never die — your run score only raises the stakes — while you allocate a tech tree mid-match and stack mutators that multiply what the run is worth. Supplies you earn buy permanent perks, and a daily challenge posts your result to a server leaderboard.
