Here’s an interesting fact: a designer who worked on the popular games Age of Empires and Empire Earth also contributed to Empires: Dawn of the Modern World. This game is a historical real-time strategy title that blends elements of both those classics. What really sets it apart is its broad historical range, taking you from the Medieval period all the way to World War II. You can play as one of nine unique civilizations, each with its own units and ways to play. The single-player campaigns are especially well-done, offering a more engaging and cinematic story than many other strategy games. Empires: Dawn of the Modern World was developed by Stainless Steel Studios, who later created Rise & Fall: Civilizations at War before unfortunately going out of business and transferring the game to Midway Games.

This is the biggest leap towards compensating former clients and creditors since the catastrophic collapse of the exchange in November 2022, which left everyone feeling like they’d been hit by a Vogon constructor fleet.
