Between Empires
Released 27 October 2026 · PC · Simulation, Strategy

Lead a nation from 1700 to 1936 in a historical grand strategy game of politics, economics, diplomacy, and war. Appoint ministers, reform institutions, and face consequences that can return generations later.
Story
Two centuries. One state. Every decision leaves a scar. Between Empires is a historical grand strategy game about governing a state through more than two centuries of upheaval from the dynastic world of 1700 to the fractured international order of 1936. You will not simply move armies and paint the map. Appoint ministers, balance competing interests, finance institutions, reshape the law, direct trade and industry, negotiate with rival powers, and decide which crises your government can survive. A concession made to save the treasury in 1700 may empower an elite faction in 1780, reshape a revolution in 1848, and determine your alliances in 1914. Ministers are not decorative portraits. Their ability, loyalty, office, and political position determine what your government can accomplish. Fill the great offices of state, manage rival personalities, and build a cabinet capable of carrying your plans through reform, war, and succession. The strongest policy on paper can still fail when the people responsible for it trust neither you nor one another. The National Fate system treats major decisions as part of your state's memory not as disposable bonuses....
