Real-Time Fantasy 4X Strategy · Early Access 2026 · PC

Description

Heart of Muriet is a solo-crafted real-time fantasy 4X strategy game set in a richly detailed world of arcane conflict. Players take on the role of an apprentice mage thrust into an ancient war — choosing their mage archetype and magic realm, and forging their own path to power.

Build flourishing settlements with 60+ building types, research hundreds of arcane paths across four magic realms, and command armies in large-scale real-time battles featuring 300+ spells. Every campaign plays differently — shaped by your chosen mage archetype, your magic realm, and the choices you make along the way.

A rich single-player campaign, a built-in map editor, custom difficulty settings, and skirmish modes give players endless ways to experience the world of Muriet. Heart of Muriet is a testament to what a singular creative vision — built over nearly a decade by a solo developer — can achieve.
