What The Battle of Polytopia is all about

The Battle of Polytopia is a strategy game in which you have to lead a civilization to glory and success. The graphics are kept quite simple and use the polygons that have become very popular lately. You can either play against a computer opponent, against friends or against randomly selected players. In two different game modes, the aim is either to wipe out the opponent or to build up the empire as well as possible and thus achieve the highest score.

The latest information on The Battle of Polytopia

The game was released in 2016 under the title Super Tribes. However, in 2019 it had to be renamed due to legal disputes. Until recently, The Battle of Polytopia was only available for Android, iOS and macOS. However, on August 4, 2020, a desktop version was also released, which is available via Steam.

The gameplay in the PC version does not differ from that on mobile devices. Here too, only four of the fifteen available civilizations can be played for free. The remaining eleven have to be purchased via microtransactions.

The rules are incredibly simple for a 4K strategy game, but still offer enough depth so that many different tactics can be used well and sensibly. A good upgrade in the PC version is offered by the possibility to see the whole map at a glance. Because in contrast to mobile devices, the PC can be zoomed out much further. The entertaining games can be further loosened up by numerous Easter eggs available in the game.

The Battle of Polytopia's Target Group

The Battle of Polytopia is a successful combination of strategic world-building game and casual gaming. So if you like games in the style of Civilization but also want to have quick and easy games in between, The Battle of Polytopia is definitely the right place for you.

These other games were also produced by Midjiwan AB

So far, publisher Midjiwan AB has not produced any games other than The Battle of Polytopia. Since 2016, the company has been completely focused on getting more out of this small mobile game. With the release for PC, the next milestone has definitely been reached. It remains to be seen what other games Midjiwan AB will present to us in the future.
