    Game description from the publisher:

    In Clockwork Wars, you will take command of a powerful race of creatures: the calculating Purebreeds, the industrious Troglodytes, the mighty Rhinochs, the proud Mongrels, or the marvelous Inventions.

    The land is embroiled in a war that reaches across centuries. Your goal is to accumulate more victory points (VPs) than your opponents, and you earn VPs by gaining control of valuable natural resources. To capture these territories, you will need manpower that can be gained only by conquering villages and developing them into cities. The enemy will meet you on the field of battle, and to aid your soldiers in warfare, you'll need to invest some of your resources into research. Many possible discoveries await you within the realms of sorcery, science, and religion. Position your troops, research powerful discoveries, employ espionage, and capture strategic resources to win the game!

    Clockwork Wars features:

    • A modular map composed of hexagonal tiles and ten territory types (including factories, wizard towers, and fortresses) that allows for infinite replayability.
    • Five different races to choose from, each with its own unique units.
    • Hidden (and simultaneous) unit deployment that provides constant tension
    • Short turns packed with tough decisions; two-player games should take less than an hour to complete, and additional players don't significantly add to length.
    • Simple, diceless combat resolution.
    • A card-based espionage system.
    • A unique "technology tree" that is different for every game; research Discoveries in one of three different domains (Sorcery, Science, and Religion) across three successive ages.
    • Light civilization-building mechanisms, as players upgrade villages into cities and research Discoveries to help them conquer the land.
