If you've spent time building empires with us in Ozymandias, we wanted you to be the first to know: our next game, Bon Vivant, now has a Steam page and we are running a playtest so you can try it.Bon Vivant is another deep strategy game in an approachable format but it trades cities and armies for guest lists and menus. Each run, you manage your house in Paris: furniture, food, drinks and when you're having your next party. When the evening arrives, you execute your plan in real time for a hand-picked list of historical guests: Hemingway, Picasso, Chanel, Orwell and many more. How much fun the

Hi everyone, Welcome to the final update in our season pass, which we’ve saved for Steam’s Strategy Fest. Our 6th DLC map takes you to the lofty peaks of the Andes and beyond to Amazonia. It presents some unique challenges with food hard to come by at first and no aggressive empires on the map. It should be popular in multiplayer as it’s fairly balanced. The free update, which accompanies this DLC release, is focused squarely on the AI. We’ve gone deep into Ozy’s brain and tinkered to improve a number different areas. Most notably, building and growing cities and when and how to wage war. Over

Hi everyone, Welcome to update 5 and the storied seas of the Aegean. The latest DLC map, Aegean Sea, is the first to have an empire with the new 'Impossible' difficulty rating. This empire is not for human consumption! Aegean Sea is intended as a 2 player Trojan War map (with a 'city state' for company). https://store.steampowered.com/app/2057780/Ozymandias__Aegean_Sea/ https://store.steampowered.com/bundle/29272/Ozymandias__Complete_Edition/ https://store.steampowered.com/bundle/32445/Goblinz_4X__DLCs/ Full patch notes: v1.5.0.6 - Aegean Sea is available to everyone in multiplayer if someone,

v1.4.0.37 - New 90s/turn timer in multiplayer - we see the most errors in 1 min/turn games (the fastest timer) so if you play these, consider if 90s/turn would work for you because it might be more stable. - Updated server code to better manage timers in multiplayer games with lots of players. - Fix for multiplayer games breaking if a player hard quit at the moment their timer expired. - Improved latency calculations to reduce possibility of desyncs. - New UI to explain when the server is shutting down for maintenance. - Attempted fix for rare bug where UI becomes unresponsive upon starting a

Hi everyone, we just released our 4th major post-launch update with lots of improvements and a new DLC map: Sahara Desert. Please remember how it works with your multiplayer games, they are now in a branch in Steam so don't worry, they are not lost!

Order restored and less painfully than first thought. During a routine server update 4h ago, the server decided to switch to a region which had outdated data. We switched back to the right region and the server is back online now and the issues are fixed. If you played multiplayer in the last 4 hours, you will have lost this progress, sorry for the inconvenience. I expect very few people will be badly affected but let me know if you are and we'll see what we can do.

A recent maintenance update to the server has caused a problem, where at least some players can no longer see their async multiplayer games. We are turning the server off temporarily, while we fix it. Your games should survive this change but it will cause a little weirdness. If anyone suffers a bad loss in treasure as a result, let us know, we can manually add your treasure back. I will post again, when this is resolved. For more detailed updates, see Discord: https://discord.gg/PkmuSmudKG
