Closed Beta Rize2Rule

The old kingdom has fallen. In the Shattered Reach every hill has a lord, and every lord wants more. Raise a city from the ruins - and rule.

Raise a city from the ruins

Begin with one hall and a patch of wild country. Build it into the Ring Town - civic halls round your Emberhall, homes and Warhalls against the walls, fields ringing it all.

  • Twenty buildings of R2R's own, each growing as it rises
  • Ten chapters of the Steward's Path guide every step
  • Up to ten cities, from your first town to a realm
  • Research, heroes, reeves and taxes - a city that lives
A city of the Reach

Farm. Fight. Hold.

NPC strongholds dot the map and refill every eight hours. Raid them for the stores your army eats, break their loyalty, and take them.

  • Battle reports that show every company, every round
  • Valleys to win and hold for their bounty
  • Walls, pitfalls, bastions and engines on your Ramparts
  • A live Defense panel when a lord marches on you
The Defense panel

Choose your lord

Three factions rose from the empire's ashes. Pick a lord - each brings their faction's gifts to your realm.

A guide at your side through all ten chapters - one clear next step for each part of your realm.

Oliver, your assistant

Ask Oliver how anything works. Something wrong? He gathers what happened and sends it to us.
