About

Akkad is an intense strategy game themed around the Akkadian Empire in ancient Mesopotamia. To claim victory, players will need to complete quests in service to their king and hope to gain his favour. Players will be able to develop their cities, expand their territory, collect resources, train armies, dig canals, build temples, send priests to convert heretics, and battle monsters. All the while you must keep a watchful eye on your neighbours who seek to thwart you at every turn! The fate of an empire hangs in the balance. Do you have what it takes to bring glory to Akkad? Akkad is based on the historical events of the Akkadian Empire and draws upon the art and culture of period. The game was created by Nicholas Kraus who has a PhD in ancient Mesopotamian civilizations.
