About Kairos

Kairos is an RTS fantasy experience that pits the player against the corruption in the world. The player must build structures and train soldiers, archers, and mages to fight alongside the hero and defeat the corruption. If left to its own devices, the corruption will send corrupted units to defeat the player's forces as well as expand and overrun the land until the player has nowhere left to hide. You must not only train soldiers to fight corrupted enemies but also create purifiers to reclaim the corrupted land.

The primary enemy the player will face is a corruption that slowly expands across the continent. The corruptions will not only hurt the players units, but it will build up it’s own army of monsters to take down the player’s kingdom. As such, it is the players job to keep his kingdom alive and, with enough effort, cure their homeland of this vile plague.

Using a collection of different units, structures, and magic, the player will be able to build and expand their kingdom into the corrupted parts of the world. As you expand, more resources will become available to the player. This will allow the player to continue to expand into the deeper corruption. Eventually, with enough effort, the player will completely purify the continent, making it a prosperous land.

A great example of how a free, compact indie project can be more engaging than many bloated AAA strategies. Kairos is a bite-sized RTS that takes literally 45 minutes to finish and never outstays its welcome. The core loop is instantly clear: build a base, recruit an army, and hold back the waves of Corruption while pushing your Purifiers forward. The cartoony 3D art style looks simple but neat. While the economy is basic and tactical variety runs thin by the end, it stands as a solid 8/10 for a quick, meditative session. If you miss classic Warcraft 3 mechanics, definitely check it out.

Well, it works as a game now, completed tutorial but there is no real reason to go beyond that since there is only one strategy and a very repetitive gameplay loop. Could be expanded into something interesting with time though, good luck dev.

it is interesting game it can be easy once you know what to do. one thing i dont like is that i cant save. i think multi player would be interesting like if there played as Corruption used the monsters to fight you or fight back the Corruption together. also its free.

Boltgun 2 price: buy the sequel, or the cheap first game?

The Boltgun 2 price has no cheaper route on launch day — our record shows one listing, unmoved since September. The first game is the bargain, but a smaller one than it was.
