Built through trials
Ulia Chronicles is a fantasy builder on a plot of land nestled in the mountains of Uagrall. You're tasked with building a city that can withstand the trials of nature, man, and the gods—either solo or with the help of friends via online multiplayer or co-op. The main campaign boasts different scenarios across 20 chapters wherein you assume the role of tribe leaders and guide your people forward.
There are multiple structures to build in Ulia Chronicles, requiring you to lay down roads to connect all of them to create a travel and transport system. You must train soldiers and build an army that will be able to defend against attacks from neighboring enemy factions, as well as invaders hailing from foreign lands looking to plunder your riches and resources.
In addition, gods in the game are fickle, requiring you to build monuments in their honor—or else you’ll incur their wrath and destroy your city. Your only hope is to call on the help of legendary heroes who roam the land. However, there's a moderate learning curve to overcome at the beginning as you learn how to manage this fantasy city.
Challenging with a fantasy twist
If you're a fan of city builders with a fantasy twist to them, Ulia Chronicles is an interesting title you can check out. It boasts engaging building gameplay complimented by a god-worship element that adds depth and complexity to the experience. It will take some time to get used to how it plays, but it's worth the effort. Give it a try and see for yourself.
