I was particularly fond of clear objectives and a quest log that changed it up from the usual Realms, which gave more of a reason to explore the story mode, even as a veteran. Although it isn't ground-breaking and won't be winning any awards in storytelling, it was a pleasant surprise that I enjoyed partaking in. You can't skip Story Realms (you unlock them chronologically), but being able to choose between Easy, Normal, and Hard was a welcome addition for a newcomer like myself.Ĭonsidering there isn't much of a story, and what there is I don't want to spoil, I just want to say that I was pleased with the narrative overall. Veterans of both the 4X genre and Age of Wonders might find it easy, and likely a bit simple, as many of the worlds are relatively small. While at first, the Story Realms seem like a tutorial, you will fight and protect your lands and unfold the story of war, and quickly it’ll become a normal campaign as any other.Ĭoming into Age of Wonders 4, I didn't really expect much of a story mode, but with the new Event system that creates random occurrences, alongside the quests you get along the way, I was quite pleased with the Story Realms overall. As part of the campaign, you will often play as both the mortals and the corrupted Godir, taking different roles in the story and watching the war unfold as a whole.
