It was not the best of beginnings for Age of Wonders 4 on Steam. The Triumph Studios title debuted on May 2 on the platform of Valve and he was riddled with negative reviews in his file. The reasons stemmed from an overwhelming number of bugs that spoiled a very promising release in the TRPG 4X genre.
However, the developer quickly acted and days later published a patch that fixed more than 40 bugs, especially those related to users who own an Nvidia RTX GPU. The balance has changed position, so now the work accumulates 3,913 reviews that are rated as “Very positive.” Furthermore, in SteamDB we can verify that peaks of players are being achieved in excess of 40,000 concurrent users.
In Age of Wonders 4 we come across the fourth installment of a saga that was born under the shelter of Epic Games in 1999 and allows us to launch ourselves into a fantasy kingdom to conquer. Our task is to control a faction and get our empire to expand its power wherever it goes. For this we will have to use the magic tomes from the wise men who have returned to dominate among mortals.
We can create our followers with details related to body shapes, social characteristics, and arcane powers that they will be able to deploy. The variety is absolute, being able to choose from cannibal beings to mystical lunar elves if it crosses our minds. Of course, through the use of magic on our armies we will turn them into angels of peace or merciless agents of chaos.
Tactical strategy is the main mechanic for us to decide whether to attack, withdraw or form alliances, so each turn is essential. The scenarios of Age of Wonders 4 they take us to frozen landscapes, ancient ruins and lands where dragons roam freely. Regarding the narrative component, Triumph Studios has incorporated a event system in which we will see how everything around us will change due to the effects of our departure.
The replayability is also essential, since every time we get behind the controls we will not experience the same thing. If you want to get your hands on it, you can get the title on the following platforms:
