About Song of Slavs

In Song of Slavs you have to try on the role of a young Tsar who must establish his settlement and withstand hordes of treacherous enemies. You will have to demonstrate your leadership skills throughout the day and under different weather conditions. Increase the population of your village, assign jobs and turn your village into a glorious city of the ancient Slavs.

The Tsar's Retinue

Each warrior in your retinue can become unique with the help of a combat system tied to the squad and builds of each individual unit.

Turn to the powers of the ancient pagan gods

Keep faith in your gods! Mighty oak trees are suitable not just as a resource, but also for creating powerful idols that will help protect your settlement. Choose which idol to sacrifice to. You can sacrifice your settler for the sake of peace and prosperity, or you can sacrifice food for the sake of new knowledge.

Develop yourself and your people:

Having sufficiently developed your settlement, you will unlock horses and be able to saddle a steed, and your peasants will have access to a cart for transporting more resources.

Strengthen and develop your settlement

Place and upgrade various buildings to suit the needs of your settlement - a house, a farm, a barn, a bathhouse, and even several idols. Each type of building requires certain resources, but provides different development bonuses. Need new units or resources? Place new buildings in your settlement.

Set your priorities

You choose what and where to build. You can strengthen your defenses or expand your army by wisely managing the settlement's resources. Each building has its own purpose and will help you implement your strategy.

Handcrafted pixel art and music

Immerse yourself in Slavic culture with magnificent music, sound effects, and incredible pixel art.
