Aztez

Also available on: Humble Store | itch.io

In Aztez, you expand and maintain the Aztec empire through turn-based strategy, while managing violent outbreaks via real-time beat 'em up sequences. Every game is unique; different events will occur, different challenges will emerge, and different spoils will be taken each time you play. Spread, strengthen, subjugate!

Conquest

Aztez begins in 1428 AD, when the cunning Mexica of Tenochtitlan began the formation of the Aztec Empire. Make vital gambits, wager for greater gains, and push out the borders of the Empire as the odds continue to stack up!
Brutality

The Aztez warriors are the Empire's solution to problems too small for an army, and their battle prowess is legendary. They squash revolts, curb plagues, eliminate political opponents, coerce powerful neighbors, protect allies, and more.
