Nomads of Driftland

Game overview

Nomads of Driftland is a real-time strategy (RTS) game set in a fantasy world known as Driftland. The game follows the struggle of the Nomads, a group of rebels fighting against mage-rulers who seek to restore civilization and control over the fragmented landscape. Players directly manage units, unlike the base game, Driftland: The Magic Revival, where units follow orders from a ruler. The game incorporates mechanics of dynamic topography and allows for strategic unit movements amidst conflicts.

Gameplay mechanics

The gameplay focuses on managing the Nomads, who do not have a central ruler. You control each unit individually, similar to classic RTS games. The strategic aspect is influenced by new unit types and classes, which impact your approach to battles. Players must navigate conflicts among various factions while trying to defend the Nomads' values and survive against the mage-rulers.
