Era of Tribes

Lead your tribe. Build a civilization. Shape the history of Europe.

Era of Tribes is a grand strategy and civilization game in which you lead your people from the Neolithic Age to the High Middle Ages.

Starting as a small tribe in an untamed Europe, you must expand your territory, establish cities, gather resources, develop new technologies and compete with rival civilizations for influence and power.

How your civilization rises is up to you.

Build Your Civilization

Every decision shapes the future of your people.

Expand into new regions, establish settlements and cities, manage your economy and make use of the resources available across Europe. As your civilization grows, new possibilities — and new challenges — emerge.

Advance through the ages and transform your tribe into a powerful realm capable of influencing the course of European history.

Choose Your Tribe

Lead one of several unique tribes, each offering its own identity and strategic possibilities.

Adapt your strategy to your starting position, your neighbors and the developing political situation. No two games have to follow the same path.

Will you build a prosperous trading empire, dominate through military strength, become a technological leader or secure your position through diplomacy?

Expand Across Europe

Europe is divided into numerous regions waiting to be explored, settled and conquered.

Expand your influence, secure important territories and gain access to valuable resources and luxury goods.

But expansion comes with consequences.

Other tribes may have their eyes on the same lands — and peaceful borders can quickly become battlefields.

Diplomacy or War

Not every rival has to become an enemy.

Interact with other civilizations, negotiate with neighboring tribes and use diplomacy to strengthen your position.

But when diplomacy fails, military force may become the answer.

Build your strength, move your forces across Europe and fight for control of strategically important regions.

Develop New Technologies

Progress is the foundation of every great civilization.

Research improvements that strengthen your economy, military, agriculture, trade, navigation and society.

New discoveries allow your civilization to grow beyond its original limitations and prepare your people for the challenges of the next era.

Manage Your People

A successful empire requires more than conquered territory.

Collect taxes, maintain the morale of your population, develop your cities and create an economy capable of supporting your ambitions.

Resources, wealth, influence and the stability of your civilization all play an important role in your rise to power.

Rise Through the Ages

Your journey begins in the Neolithic period, but it does not end there.

Fulfil the necessary requirements to advance through different historical eras, unlocking new opportunities and transforming the way your civilization develops.

What begins as a scattered tribe can eventually become one of the most powerful civilizations in Europe.

Multiple Paths to Victory

There is no single way to dominate the world of Era of Tribes.

Gain influence through expansion, economic strength, technological development, political power and military success.

Your strategy — and the actions of your rivals — determine how history unfolds.

Multiplayer Strategy

Compete with other players and discover how differently a civilization can evolve when every neighboring tribe is controlled by another strategist.

Form temporary alliances, compete for valuable territory, race for technological progress or become the military power everyone else fears.

Friends today may become rivals tomorrow.
