Aliens reset Earth by a thousand years. Win it back, then conquer the galaxy, in a single-player space strategy game with an idle merge empire behind it. FROM EARTH TO THE GALAXY Start on an Earth thrown back into its distant past. Secure it target by target, then Mars, Saturn and the Sun, and set course for star systems across whole galaxies. MERGE TO CONQUER Merge scientists and satellites into stronger producers. They earn food, energy and science every second, even while you're away, and that pays for every unit and upgrade you take into battle. DRAG, DROP, DEFEND Tap a unit card, drag it onto the battlefield and watch your squad fight. Every level is hand-made: high ground, rivers and chokepoints change the fight, and every unit has a counter. Then the bosses arrive. PLAY YOUR WAY Check in for a few minutes to collect, merge and win a battle, or settle in for a long campaign. A new hand-made puzzle battle arrives every day. No PvP: nobody raids you while you sleep. BY THE NUMBERS • 16 units in 3 factions, from Space Marines to dragons • 13 power-ups, from turrets to black holes • 100+ targets on Earth alone, then planets and star systems • A new Daily Quest every day • Permanent research and upgrades for the long game • English, Español, Português, Deutsch, Français, 日本語, Türkçe, Русский, Bahasa Indonesia THE STORY Wake Cresnia, an AI companion who lost her memory. Follow the prank to the aliens behind it, and find out why she was hidden on Earth.

About

Magekeep Siege

Read full description

Hold the tower. Grow the keep. Raid the seas. Magekeep Siege is a 3D hex-citadel sim. You are the warden of a living island — farms, lumber, mines, houses, and barracks tick in real time, even while you are away. Wave defense is one activity of that citadel, not the whole game. BUILD THE HEX KEEP • Place farms, mills, mines, houses, markets, taverns, and barracks on a hex island • Chop wall groves, bridge to nearby islets, and upgrade plots up to level 6 • Food, wood, iron, and gold keep producing for up to 8 hours while you are gone HIRE AND RAID • Hire knights from the castle once a farm is running • March them against other players' keep snapshots • Win gold — or send them to rest if the raid fails DEFEND THE WALLS • Your mage holds the battlements against rogues, slimes, and warbands • Draft blessings, cast Inferno / Frost / Storm, and grow the roof mage • Outposts, biomes, and prestige sigils deepen a long run This is an original Balcony Games title. Combat, keep economy, knight raids, and the first-session citadel tutorial were built for Magekeep — not a reskin of a wave-defense template.
