## About HUMANKIND™

HUMANKIND™ is a historical 4X strategy game developed by AMPLITUDE Studios, released in 2021 at 49.99 USD. Players guide civilizations across multiple eras, combining region-based city growth with culture-switching mechanics that fundamentally reshape strategy each era. The game features district-layering for added strategic depth and era-stars collection that provides flexible victory paths. Territory systems prevent city-spamming and encourage more deliberate expansion. Reviewers highlight that battles unfold in a tactical sub-game separate from the main map. Players describe the experience as atmospheric and immersive, with a contemplative tone as cultures evolve across time. The game is marked as playable on Steam Deck and carries a 69% positive rating from over 12,000 Steam reviews.
