BUILD A CIVILIZATION Start with villagers and scarce resources. Gather food, wood, gold, and stone; construct a working economy; advance through four ages; and turn an exposed settlement into a fortified medieval city. COMMAND DISTINCT HISTORICAL ARMIES Lead the Scots, English, Vikings, French, Mongols, Byzantines, or Saracens. Every civilization has its own battlefield identity, economic strengths, military bonuses, named units, and castle troops. PLAY 48 STORY CAMPAIGN CHAPTERS Experience seven chronological campaigns inspired by documented medieval history: • William Wallace and the Scottish rising • Henry V from Harfleur to the Treaty of Troyes • Harald Hardrada from exile to Stamford Bridge • Joan of Arc from Chinon to Compiègne • Chinggis Khan from survival on the steppe to empire • Alexios Komnenos and the recovery of Byzantium • Saladin from Egypt to Jerusalem and the Third Crusade Historical outcomes are respected. Defeats, retreats, captures, and last stands remain part of the story instead of being rewritten as easy victories. Tactical layouts and dialogue are dramatized for play. FIGHT YOUR WAY Train infantry, archers, cavalry, monks, siege engines, and civilization-specific elite troops. Build walls, towers, gates that open for friendly units, castles, and wonders. Use formations, rally points, control groups, terrain, rivers, cliffs, and multiple difficulty levels to shape every battle. DESIGNED FOR TOUCH A scalable landscape HUD, contextual controls, tooltips, minimap, pause menu, local save slots, and touch-first selection make a full real-time strategy game practical on phones and tablets. Mouse and keyboard controls are also supported on the web version. PLAY OFFLINE, WITHOUT DARK PATTERNS StoneSiege is a complete single-player game. It has no accounts, ads, analytics, tracking, loot boxes, subscriptions, or in-app purchases. Campaign progress, settings, and saved matches remain on your device. StoneSiege is built in public as an open-source historical strategy game. Learn more and play the web version at stonesiegegame.com.
