Really cool turn per turn game! you have to create roads and castles in order to gain points. It's inspired by a boardgame called Carcassone. The gameplay is pretty intuitive and easy to learn, however there is many information and it would be great to have a library or something where you can check it inside the game. So far the game have been released for only few days so that could change in a future update. The only CON is the price, 25$ for a game with no online multiplayer (so far) is a bit expensive. online multiplayer should definitively be the next step for this game. This is my first review on steam, I hope it will be useful to someone :)3 found this helpful
I'm still a beginner in this game, and I'm surely not a good player for the moment. In fact, it's one of my first tabletop game, and being able to play one on my computer seems a good alternative for me, as I wanted to train alone. Well, what I can say about this game is that there is a strong potential. After watching some streams made by the creators, videos, and learning by myself, it's obvious that there is a lot of strategy to build in order to be able to win. In the 2 hours I played before writing this review, I only won one game again the IA, but I was very happy to at least win, based on my current level ! What I find very nice is that you can just launch a little game sometimes, you configure how much time you want to play, and you can then start playing. You can play with friends in local, or even in online multiplayer if you have parsec. For the moment, I didn't saw any freeze, and I really like to move in the map, there is a lot of little things to discover, and a lot of tiles to know to be good in the game. Only drawback I saw is the beginner guide, quite hard in fact to understand everything when you start the game. But I think this kind of game is like that. It's…1 found this helpful
ATRIUM is an indie strategy game that quietly delivers a surprisingly engaging mix of board game mechanics, territorial expansion, and tactical planning. Developed and published by Black Potion, the game takes inspiration from tabletop experiences while adapting those ideas into a digital format focused on empire growth and strategic competition. At first, the mechanics appear deceptively simple, with players building roads, capturing territory, and expanding influence across a modular map. However, after spending time with the game, it becomes clear that ATRIUM hides a respectable amount of depth beneath its minimalist presentation. It is the kind of title that rewards patience, experimentation, and careful long-term planning rather than fast reactions or overwhelming complexity. The foundation of the gameplay revolves around controlling space and developing a growing kingdom piece by piece. Every placement decision matters because roads determine expansion routes, structures provide strategic advantages, and unit positioning can completely shift the balance of power during a match. The pacing is slower and more methodical than many modern strategy games, giving players time to t…
This game is incredibly laggy. I have a good graphics card and a fast processor and it still lags even using a resolution much smaller than my screen on the lowest settings. Something hasn't been optimized correctly.
