The bastard child of 4X and Tower defense, with a black humor infused plot, set in a grim, disillusioned world.

Empire In Ruins presents a new take at strategy by merging the Tower Defense genre's detailed, recognizable gameplay with elements of Turn-Based Empire Management, in a hybrid never before seen.
Conquer, build, defend and lead the grumpy Sgt. Hans Heimer in his own personal vendetta against "the system".

The current demo features the first 25 turns of the Campaign (or the first 5 conquered provinces) with the full dialogs, events, research, etc. It also provides unlimited access to the first 5 maps of the arcade mode, including our famous "Map 26", where you can briefly test the full game features (abilities, towers, buildings, units, etc).
The demo is taken out of a pre-release beta, so while it has been undergoing now more than 400 hours of total testing, it's still possible to find some bugs of issues. In that case, don't hesitate to use the ingame tool to report them!

If you like it, don't forget to wishslist it, it's coming soon!
