- It's free!

We've enjoyed playing many of the free-to-play, browser-based strategy games out there - but we always felt there was something missing: Depth.

Too many of these games are limited to building a few towns and a handful of troop types - and then throwing them at other players. The largest army wins and... well... that's it.

We wanted a game where there was a genuine diversity of winning strategies; where different players' gamestyles were valid options reflected in the game mechanics.

We wanted a game where players could choose their own path to victory without being limited to a small set of pre-defined options.

We couldn't find that game out there, so we've created Illyriad.
