| Join hundreds of players in an evolving fantasy campaign. Build ships, castles, towers, inns, siege engines, temples and mines. Slay monsters, or your enemies. Study necromancy and aura-blast your foes to cinders. Distill ratspider venom and eat your victim's brains to steal their knowledge. Gate-jump across continents. Become King of the Cloudlands. Map Hades. Hack your way through the tunnels beneath the Imperial City to get to the Underworld. Get filthy rich finding new trade routes. |
Olympia campaigns have no set conclusions, and typically run for several years, with new players continually joining. The map has thousands of provinces, each containing features such as cities, ruins, lairs, sacred groves, castles, etc. The game is capable of supporting hundreds of players in the same world.
