From villagers to a siege: Elsewhere Battles is on iPhone and iPad

Hi, I'm Connor, the creator of Elsewhere Battles. My first game launched on November 10, and I wanted to share the part that connects settlement building with the battles.

Villagers gather resources and construct buildings. That growing settlement supports the troops you recruit, move across the map and send against rival armies and towns. The 25-second clip shows that loop, from workers and construction to an assembled army and a siege:

02-put-villagers-to-work

01-grow-your-civilization

03-command-your-armies

04-watch-battles-unfold

05-bring-down-enemy-towns

Solo works offline. Private-code multiplayer supports up to six civilizations with friends and computer opponents. Its free preview includes maps and civilizations, while specialists and remix music follow purchases; solo unlocks remain separate.

The game is free to download on the U.S. App Store for iPhone/iPad running iOS/iPadOS 17+. Humans, Gargoyles, Spirits and Cryptids plus four solo maps are included. Optional purchases are permanent, with no subscriptions. Eligible free players may see ads; Full game owners remain ad-free. https://apps.apple.com/us/app/elsewhere-battles/id6826332316

If you try it, I'd like to hear which part draws you in more: growing the settlement or leading the army.

The 25-second clip uses the Moonbound Remix theme. Gameplay is sped up 1.5x; construction is shown across turns. Some civilizations and remix music shown require purchases.
