Before you set forth
A few things
to know.
Is Eldenmarch really free?
Yes. The open alpha is free to play in your browser, with no ads and nothing to buy or download. Plans after the alpha are not decided yet, and any change will be announced here before it happens.
Is this Heroes of Might and Magic?
No. Eldenmarch is an independent game inspired by Heroes of Might and Magic III. It is not affiliated with or endorsed by Ubisoft, which owns that series. Its world, names, maps, art and code are its own.
Who makes Eldenmarch, and how?
One developer, with the help of AI tools. The artwork is created with AI image generators, then selected, edited and fitted to a single style guide. The code is written with AI coding assistants under the developer’s direction.
Where do the sounds come from?
The battle music is original, synthesized without samples. Sound effects come from free libraries: Kenney’s Interface Sounds, RPG Audio, Impact Sounds and Music Jingles (CC0), rubberduck’s 80 CC0 RPG SFX (CC0), and the Fantasy Sound Effects Library by Little Robot Sound Factory (CC BY 3.0).
Do I need an account?
No account is required to start playing. The game’s optional save and load feature uses an email address to find your save slots.
What do I need to play?
A recent browser (Chrome, Edge or Safari) on a computer, tablet or phone. Nothing to install and no gaming PC needed. You need to be online while you play. Your first game downloads about 50 MB of art (about 20 MB on phones), and later visits load faster.
Can I play on my phone?
Yes. Phones and tablets are supported in portrait and landscape, and battles are played in landscape. A desktop or laptop still gives the best experience.
Can I play with friends?
Yes. Play online multiplayer, share one device in local hot-seat mode, or take on AI opponents in a solo game.
What does open alpha mean?
The game is playable and actively being developed. Features, artwork, and balance may change, and you may encounter bugs. Your feedback helps guide what comes next.
What if the game says the realm is full?
During the alpha, Eldenmarch runs on a single server. When it is full, new games are turned away for a moment so that games already under way stay smooth. Please try again in a few minutes.
