About this project
Join us in this heroic feat to conquer the realm! Choose your race, download the Mobile App, plant your hero seed, create your clan, and start living this adventure on the palm of your hand! The Mobile App and tabletop game board will take you to another level of gaming by combining two features for the first time: Virtual world and Table Top Gaming!
CoTR's players will jump right into the heart of the first chapter by choosing their race; this will define who they will be fighting for. Once their race is chosen, players will download the Mobile App to plant their Hero Seed in the map and register their character -The Hero Seed is your fantasy counterpart in our world-, assigning a piece of land to their name.
For Heroes (players) to survive, they will need to join a Clan made of a total of 5 members of the same race and Geolocation. The adventure will now begin for these 5 adventurers in their quest to Conquer every land on this Realm and restoring balance.
CoTR brings together the most popular tabletop games with a touch of MMORPG through its collaborative App feature. Clans will challenge and fight each other for the property of lands all around the world. All these fights and wars will be registered, which will reveal the bravest and best strategical Heroes at the end of every Tournament.
Shaping the face of the Realm with every battle! Heroes will be able to practice their strategies and enhance their knowledge using the Normal version of the game, which is not registered on the online Tournament. By crafting their own stories and strategies, Heroes will form and sculpt the very essence of CoTR.
So, what are you waiting for? Join Conquerors of the Realm today and write your own Story!
We once were all humans; living on planet Earth peacefully, in a world free of dark magic. The rise of the Dark Lord of Evil Drung’aktar brought about destruction and chaos. After the Apocalypse, a few of us remained alive, lost in this barren land overrun by dark magic and demonic beasts. The New World was divided.We found ourselves stranded at the foot of the Alps. We were looking for shelter when we stumbled upon an old briefcase in which we found a single object: a black flash drive. Twelve days later, we came across an abandoned bunker in which we found a working laptop. This is what we saw.
The Map. This is where your journey starts. This world is yours to take. Each of the 6 continents contains resources, use them strategically to grow your armies and become more powerful. Make a name for yourself; let your enemies tremble in your presence.
Continent tokens. They are crucial for the initial set up. Begin by having all tokens scattered on the table and flipped on their back. Draw a family card, choose a random continent token and flip it to know where each family begins its adventure.
The Hero board. This is where you can keep track of your abilities and progress through the game. You can become allies with other species and use their hero board as well. We don’t want to give much away but it’s simple ;)
The Alliance cards. These represent the alliance requirements for each family in the game. Having allies comes at a price, but remember, there is strength in numbers…
Included are 3 types of dice. The conventional 6 sided dice are used to decide which player starts first; it also helps you boost your hero’s abilities by adding the number you roll to your initial hero powers (found on your hero card). The 12 sided die will determine the action number; use it to move, attack or conquer. The 4 sided die helps you increase your power when attacking experienced opponents after the 5th and 10th game days. These are of great importance – trust us.
The +1 tokens are used to upgrade your Shield and Attack power cards. Each player will be allowed to upgrade their silver powers into gold ones once per game. The Heart, Shield and Weapon tokens are for you to keep track of the abilities you acquire during gameplay. They are placed on your hero board. The golden token is used as a tracker for the game day timeline. And last but not least, you can mark the territories you seize with Camp Fire tokens.
The event cards are drawn by each player after they’ve played their turn. They could be heaven… or they could be hell. Use the skills of your Wizard partner if you want to use the cards to see the future.
Collect resource cards to meet alliance requirements of opposing clans. Resource cards are also essential to upgrade your powers.
Weapon and Shield cards allow you to upgrade your attack and defense powers. Keep in mind that after 5 and 10 game days, all your opponents get to respectively double and triple their powers.
The box contains 30 miniature figurines; each with it's own hero card. You will be able to figure out the special abilities of each character.
Creatures of the same species flocked together and formed clans. Some swore allegiance to the nefarious Drung’draktar, while others kept fighting for their freedom hoping to one day reclaim the world they once knew. Clans formed armies with Pikemen, Warriors, Archers, Riders and Wizards. They lived in a state of fear and distrust, with constant pillaging, massacres and genocide. There was no mercy. One rule reigned above all: survival of the fittest.
What is the Hero Seed?
N.B: In Normal Mode, it is not a must for all the players to own a Seed. You can always enjoy playing the Board Game with friends and family.
In the post apocalyptic world, borders were erased. There were no nations, no countries, no boundaries, no flags or anthems. The new world was one big, nameless, blurry terrain. Every year, CoTR will hold a World Championship. Leading clans will have the chance to qualify for the Battle of the Kingdoms. This epic battle will be held every year, in a random city (of our “real” world!). It will be broadcast live on YouTube for other CoTR fans to watch from around the globe. The winning clan will be awarded a trophy and will be allowed to officially name a territory of their choice on the CoTR map.
One of the things that make our game unique is the possibility to move from the real world to the virtual one with one simple click. As soon as you upload the GPS coordinates of your hero seed to our mobile app, you get access to a whole new world by our amazing augmented reality feature, where you will be able to scan the city and go on a Hero Seed hunt; While scanning the city, you will be able to check and see for all the players around you and have access to their activity feed. And why not Chat with them and set up a gaming night!
Another thing is that you can upload your scores on our online platform every single time you play a game in Tournament Mode, which helps everyone(Including Yourself) keep all the information visible to everyone. This will determine which clans are qualified to fight in the Battle of The Kingdoms. This combination between a tabletop game and the virtual world makes for an interactive game that lets you meet the community of CoTR players all over the world.
Collecting Points:
Collecting points in CoTR come from two different activities. The first one, points can be earned by playing the board game and conquering lands against other clans. Whenever a game is finished, each clan counts for its points and upload the scores of both opposing clans on the platform. If it happens that both clans upload different points, both will be penalized. Should this occur several times, the clans will be disqualified. Points collected during the game, will have a certain algorithm that will account for the final score depending on the game status (Win/ Draw/ Loss).
On the other hand, collecting points by seed hunting is as important as the points collected on the Board Game. What you should be focusing on is finding seeds of opposing species and scanning their barcodes to decrease their powers while increasing yours at the same time. Thus increasing your clan's points as well. However, if you get the chance to find a same specie seed, both you and the seed's holder will gain points.
For now, we decided not to set a flat rate for shipping, as it might be unfair for some people. However, depending on each stretch goal, we will be able to set up a shipping price. But for now, we will postpone setting up that price until after the campaign is done. However you can find approximate shipping prices:
- United States: 22$
- Canada: 27$
- United Kingdom: 22$
- Europe: 22$
- Singapore: 25$
- Australia: 30$
- New Zealand: 30$

Risks and challenges
We have been working so long on this project; What you are seeing now is just the tip of the Iceberg. For that reason we have been trying to make everything excellent throughout the development period and we believe we have created something that is more than enough for a startup.
However there would always be some minor problems that we might be facing in the future.
1- Manufacturing:
Although everything is set with the manufacturing material and design requirements, we believe there will always be some minor last minute changes in the design or the material. You might be or even might not be able to notice any minor change that should(Major Forces) occur.
2- Shipping:
We really wanted to set a flat rate for Shipment and even tried to include the shipping prices with the rewards; We've learned that this is not possible as this stage since it seems that shipping costs are so high, especially when you don't know what to expect prior to the campaign.
3- Delivery:
Our Game requires around 45 days of manufacturing. Considering everything goes well in the design requirements, we will be able to deliver before August 2017. If something must go wrong, the delivery should be during August 2017. Hopefully everything will go as planned and we'll be able to make it on time.
4- The Team:
The team is what made this project come this far, every single one that helped and worked on the project did it with passion and acceptance. We are no more than a team with very big ambitions and love for games. We are a registered US company under the name "Mazix Creations LLC" with employees all over the world from Australia to the Americas.(We do not believe in virtual country borders on a planet made of water and rock; We are citizen of the world).
