Eador is a fantasy universe of separate land-shards adrift in the Great Nothing, each with its own geography and inhabitants. Players take the role of a Master, one of the immortal powers that mortals regard as gods, and contend over the shards’ fate. The game frames that struggle in stark terms: a Master can seek to save Eador from destruction or rule through tyranny.
Its turn-based strategy blends grand strategy, tactical battles and RPG elements. The store description emphasizes that choices shape the world beyond the results of combat, while a non-linear story and broad roleplaying possibilities give decisions a narrative dimension. War, meanwhile, can be waged through a large selection of stratagems, placing strategic choice alongside the turn-by-turn battlefield contests. This combination makes Eador more than a sequence of isolated fights: its central design connects conflict to the fate of a distinctive, fragmented world.
The listed formats include single-player, multiplayer and co-op, including shared or split-screen co-op and Remote Play Together.
