Labarnas: The final struggle of the Hittite Empire 2021

Labarnas is a narrative game. Strategy is involved, but if the gods are not in your favour, there won't be a happy end. So lean back and let the story unfold.

You have to guide your people through a series of 30 random events. At the start of the game, you will influence the likelihood of certain events in the Feast for the gods. But your main task through the game will be the distribution of your population between food production and border defence.

The game is set in ancient types, in about 1200 B.C. You are Šuppiluliuma II., the last Labarna (i.e. king) of the Hittite Empire. The glorious days of your ancestors are past. The extraordinary victory against the Egyptians at Kadesh has deteriorated to being merely a story. Nature itself, as well as your neighbours have conspired against you. Your realm is crumbling.

But do not despair. Your people are strong and have shaped the region for the better part of a millennium. With a wise leader like you, destiny can be altered.
