Coming to retail stores before the close of the year, Orichalcum is testing players in a race against time. Competing against up to three other players on the table, Atlantis is no longer an appropriate home and to further progress the civilisation, the idea of a new settlement has come to light. This means carving and scouting through the unknown, exploiting the lands and exterminating any monsters who currently dwell there.

Due to a major catastrophic event about to take place undersea, the Atlantians are uprooting in a 4X manner. New land is the biggest priority as Atlantis is going down the sinkhole. Players will need to ensure that their fresh and shiny settlement is not in the midst of monsters most importantly, clearing the area and surrounding realm of evil.

There are several different ways that you can win the game, with goals to meet and a different journey for each player to achieve. Overarchingly, players must race to meet five victory points. Gaining victory points can be met by raising up temples of worship, catching the gaze of the all-powerful titans or simply diving into the grind of forging Orichalcum medallions. There is no straight line therefore dipping into different aspects will create a truely bespoke path to victory, suited to your playstyle and adaptable to your opponents!
