Free-to-play PVP strategy game

Road To Valor: Empires is a free strategy game from Dreamotion Inc. This player-vs-player (PvP) experience leverages base building and real-time strategy, tasking you in charge of your kingdom. However, it combines various design and gameplay different elements, from medieval military units to fantasy creatures. Command gods, heroes, and mythical figures as you try to conquer opposing kingdoms.

With many gameplay features plus a wide range of strategic possibilities, Road To Valor: Empires is an addictive game you can play solo or with friends. It works a lot like Rise of Kingdoms: Lost Crusade or Clash of Clans.

Lead your empire

In terms of visuals, Road To Valor: Empires feature small-scale models that try to make every unit and building lifelike. Its main feature is the use of mythical beasts and heroes, going against common logic and requiring you to learn how this world works. Back to the visual inspirations, it draws from different mythologies. Design-wise, expect to see European knights fighting side by side with gods from the Chinese pantheon.

Gameplay-wise, it leverages the familiar premise found in most of its contemporaries. You build a base, train an army, and upgrade your structures to boost your warfare capabilities. There’s also a strategic aspect since you’re in charge of building your army. Whether you’ll focus on ranged units or invest in heavy-hitting creatures, it’s up to the player. Also, it has a regular rotation of events and challenges to reward players.

Still, the game could use a couple of optimization and rebalancing. Users routinely report instances where certain game assets do not respond as they should. For example, attacking towers with certain units disregard damages, making them appear invulnerable. Similarly, there are builds that can be considered overpowered and can be easily abused. The rewards program could also use an overhaul, especially concerning the harder missions in the game.

Fun and potentially addictive

If you’re looking for a base-building experience that has generous amounts of action and magic, Road To Valor: Empires is a good entry to consider. Its character designs, however small, aim toward realism, making players appreciate the visuals even more. In terms of gameplay, it has a lot of things for you to do, all focused on the goal of strengthening your empire. Despite its minor restrictions, it’s a must-try.
