Rise of Ötüken: Steppe Saga

A winter night by the hearth. The great shaman Tolun Kam takes up his drum and unrolls a map made of felt: Orkhon, Tuul, Selenge, Altai. You are the young heir of the clan, a bey or a hatun. As the tale unfolds, felt riders come alive and you step into the saga. Rise of Ötüken is a single-player, turn-based kingdom builder and strategy game inspired by Turkic history and mythology, set in the age of the Huns and the Göktürks. Build your realm, grow your Otağ, train legendary heroes and defend Ötüken against the darkness rising from Tamağ, the underworld of Erlik Khan. ◆ TURN-BASED KINGDOM STRATEGY Every turn is one night of the saga. Build, upgrade, research, train and march, then end the turn with a single tap. Moves within a turn can be undone at no cost (except Yada spending and event choices), so experiment as much as you like. ◆ BUILD ÖTÜKEN Lift the fog on a living felt map, found new settlements and discover what each land does best. As your Otağ grows, new lands, buildings and research open up, and a bottleneck hint always shows your next step. ◆ LEGENDARY HEROES Lead Mete Khan of the whistling arrow, Bumin Khagan who raises the standard, the valiant prince Kül Tigin and the wise strategist Tonyukuk. Each hero has a signature ultimate, a passive skill and a mastery upgrade. In the saga, heroes never die: a fallen hero is wounded and returns. ◆ BATTLES ARE WON IN THE PREPARATION Side-view auto-battles play out on their own; victory depends on the army you bring. Shields in front, horse archers behind. Strength bands, counter icons and Tolun's counsel show the way, and 3x speed or "See Result" keep every battle as short as you want. ◆ MYTHIC ENEMIES You face only the creatures of darkness: hounds of the underworld, Shulmus, Albasti, Stone Giants, a shaman who sold his soul, and Evren, the dragon-serpent waking beneath the earth. As Erlik's shadow grows, so do the raids, so build your defences ahead of time. ◆ EVERY CHOICE SHAPES THE SAGA Decide the fate of travellers, feasts and omens across more than 60 event cards. Your choices change dialogue and how the saga closes, and Tolun Kam gives you the name you have earned: Open-Handed, Valiant or Wise. ◆ TREE OF KNOWLEDGE Choose your path through 45+ research nodes, from new buildings to Sky-Iron and from new troops to heroes. ◆ IN YOUR POCKET, OFFLINE Play without an internet connection and make real progress even in short sessions.
