The story of Age of Wonders 3. After a hiatus of more than 10 years and with funding from benefactor Markus ‘Notch’ Persson, the third iteration marked the rebirth of the classic fantasy strategy series.  In the original strategy games, kings, queens, and dark lords battle for the spoils of an ancient paradise. Age of Wonders III adds RPG-inspired classes and specialization, letting rulers craft empires of their own design and craft their own unique strategies and play styles in a detailed 3D world. Although it being the first self-published game by Triumph Studios, Age of Wonders III is the most successful title in the series to date.
