About Melodan

ASSEMBLE MYTHICAL LEGIONS

You are the master tactician. Build an unstoppable army ranging from swarms of reckless goblins to stalwart dwarven infantry and towering dragons. Customize your units, set your formation on the grid, and deploy your troops. Then unleash your forces and watch the magical chaos unfold in spectacular auto-battler combat!

OUTTHINK, DON'T OUTCLICK

Every decision counts. Analyze the ever-changing board, predict enemy moves, place perfect counters, and dominate opponents with your grand strategy! Victory in Melodan is determined by the sharpness of your mind, not the speed of your hand.

MASTER YOUR MAGICAL ARMORY

Create a strategy that is uniquely yours. Customize your units in the deployment phase, then unlock powerful upgrades mid-battle to adapt to the enemy. Turn fragile mages into devastating area-of-effect pyromancers, or equip dwarven shieldbearers with reflective magical armor. Win the war on your own terms.

MULTIPLE PATHS TO GLORY

From competitive ranked ladders to pure casual fun. Fight for supremacy in 1vs1 or 2vs2 PvP. Battle relentless waves of AI-controlled Undead in the Horde or Coop-Horde mode. With ever-changing magical modifiers, the realm always offers a new challenge.
