Victory is often achieved through conquest since this is a war-focused 4X game with tactical combat. The human empire has invaded the Elven lands and an epic battle ensues with all the other races caught in the crossfire. Although the single-player campaign is not particularly innovative, it’s familiar feeling makes for good fantasy strategy gaming comfort food. The game takes place in a lush fantasy world where the player is tasked with controlling an empire of Men, Elves, Orcs, or other creatures in an attempt to achieve victory. Developed by Triumph Studios, the game presents an interesting mix of 4X elements and a strong tactical combat system. Age of Wonders III was released in March 2014 after nearly a decade without a new entry in the series.
