This idea is inspired by the PangeanPowers subreddit


The Civilization Screen breaks game-play into two user experiences:

  • The Player View
  • The Civilization View

The Player View is the Minecraft experience: punch wood, fight creepers, build houses, and PvP.

The Civilization View is a top-down perspective of the world, similar to PangeanPowers' world map. Through a website written by the developers, users can claim territory, research technology, expand territory and declare war.

The Player View influences the Civilization View, by player action. Players can become "Legends" of their Civilization, by donating resources, defeating boss monsters, building monuments, and turning the tide of wars. Similarly, the Civilization View influences the players, by giving enchanted items, new superpowers, flight, and armies to command.

Fundamentally, the Civilization View aims to bring an air of grandeur and size to player action, so that one person can feel like a million.
