Warparty does its best to emulate the glory days of real-time strategy games. It feels very similar to Warcraft III in many respects, something that may be a plus or minus depending on what kind of real-time strategy you're looking to play.
A long time ago, the tribes of man lived in the wild lands. Wildlanders tame dinosaurs and live off of the land, the Necromas haunt the desert and raise the dead, and the Vithara work together with animals and command the forces of nature. Each of these civilizations are trying to find and command an ancient power in Warparty in their own unique campaigns. The stories of the Warparty campaigns cross over and let you experience the same missions from different perspectives in an interesting narrative style.
If single-player isn't your thing, a robust multiplayer mode is also available. Featuring skirmishes, ranked PvP battles, and ladders, Warparty has a lot to offer for the real-time strategy fan looking for a bit of nostalgia.
From the Warparty Steam Store page:
In ancient times, a powerful civilization thrived, blending technology and magic to assert their dominion on the world. Eons have passed since their fall and nature has reclaimed its place, leading wild beasts and dinosaurs to roam the land once again.
The tribes of men have emerged and grown in this savage environment. Using whatever tools at their disposal and harnessing the powers of the Ancients from the ruins of their cities and temples, they thrive and fight with each other for the limited resources of this world.
Lead your people to victory, expand your tribe and harness the power of beasts and lost artifacts. Shape your people to overcome their rivals and become the uncontested rulers of all.
