About Essenterra
Build Your Kingdom
Essenterra is a 2D top-down empire builder where you begin with a small settlement and gradually turn it into a thriving kingdom.
Gather wood, stone, gold and food, assign villagers to production, and expand your settlement with farms, houses, mills, defenses and military buildings.
Raise Your Army
Train an army built around different roles, strengths and counters.
Defenders can hold the frontline while archers attack from behind. Spearmen punish cavalry, wolves chase down isolated targets, and rarer units can completely change the way you approach combat.
Positioning and army composition matter just as much as raw numbers.
Discover New Creatures
Essenterra is not only about training conventional troops.
Multiple Enemies, quests and world events can reward you with materials, essences and relics used to awaken new units.
Discover different combinations and expand your collection with units such as skeleton warriors, shamans, giants, cannon boars and other creatures hidden throughout the world.
Survive a Living World
Your kingdom will be challenged by enemy camps, raids, night attacks, quests and special events.
Expand your territory, strengthen your defenses, discover new units and experiment with different army compositions as your empire grows.
Build your kingdom. Raise your army. Discover what the world of Essenterra is hiding.
