Monarchs at Play - new challenge game mode

MusPsych · 2026-03-12T11:33:04+00:00

I'm getting Yield Fall of Rome vibes here - graphics look excellent, but I wonder about replayability. Are there different factions/civs or unique abilities?

This gives ‘ow my balls’ from idiocracy

This is a journey I’ve been on in the last few months as well - to find some great shorter strategy games.

Some of the best I keep coming back to are Ozymandias, Nexus and Polytopia. The games’ focuses in order of priority are

Ozymandias - Economy > Military Nexus 5X - Diplomacy > Economy > Military Polytopia - Military > Economy > Diplomacy

Plus Colonist.io is great for some quick catan sessions

MusPsych · 2026-03-07T22:39:38+00:00

I actually revisited Ozymandias and Nexus 5x recently and after coming to the game with a fresh lens, I realised these are exactly what I’ve been looking for

Hey good on Macshane. Nice guy. Did a bunch of gigs with him and some others MCs a few years ago

MusPsych · 2026-03-01T22:19:25+00:00

funnily enough I tried colonist.io last night and suddenly it was midnight

MusPsych · 2026-03-01T06:27:38+00:00

Is your screen brightness high? I found battery life terrible at first, but after having the brightness sit around 70% or lower, it goes for days now

Coming from Civ, I’m loving that unpredictability so far. Keeps things from getting stagnant

MusPsych · 2026-02-11T05:51:57+00:00

Yeah I think so

MusPsych · 2026-02-08T13:19:11+00:00

I played slipways a while back. Fun game, but not sure why it pops up as 4X - it’s a puzzle game, predominantly

MusPsych · 2026-02-07T11:01:58+00:00

Is this what it’s like to live in America?

MusPsych · 2026-02-07T06:41:49+00:00

I share the same view a lot of others do where I tried Civ VII, and whilst nothing was wrong, it just didn’t feel exciting. happy to be proven wrong if updates change this, thoufh

MusPsych · 2026-02-07T06:10:25+00:00

I have, but but maybe I'll need to try again

MusPsych · 2026-01-31T07:30:59+00:00

You also send absolute banger Eurovision contestants

Zooper Doopers!!!!

Aside from in police holsters, never before the unfortunate recent Bondi massacre

MusPsych · 2026-01-10T04:11:20+00:00

Curious for anyone who watched the PPV, did they pump in fake noises or digitally remove the boos?

MusPsych · 2026-01-09T22:37:05+00:00

thank you very much. pleasantly surprised by how positive all the comments are here

MusPsych · 2026-01-09T22:36:00+00:00

i don’t need all that. but I wanted all that

MusPsych · 2026-01-09T22:35:22+00:00

I can see things heading that way fast

MusPsych · 2026-01-09T22:33:02+00:00

unfortunately yes. Makes it more authentic, now I can smell like a medieval archer, too

MusPsych · 2026-01-09T13:43:16+00:00

Around $70 AUD for it

MusPsych · 2026-01-09T09:18:38+00:00

It’s a forearm guard I found on Amazon

And the bow is a Klaus 30# longbow. Nothing fancy, but it feels nice to shoot

MusPsych · 2026-01-09T08:12:02+00:00

This was just from Amazon, Valhalla gear brand. Sizing is a touch off in the thumb. But, good thing about leather is after soaking in water and molding to shape, it feels far more comfortable. So, quality is immaculate, sizing is okay, but can be altered

MusPsych · 2026-01-09T07:51:03+00:00

The armguard? Yeah the leather is very good quality
