Wyrmsun - Free open sourced RTS, that's very much like the 90's Warcraft


Game Type : RTS
Developer : Andrettin
Developer Description : Wyrmsun is an open-source RTS game which features elements of mythology, history and fiction. In the Wyrmsun universe a myriad of inhabited planets exist. Humans dwell on Earth, while dwarves inhabit Nidavellir and elves nourish the world of Alfheim. These peoples struggle to carve a place for themselves with their tools of stone, bronze and iron. And perhaps one day they will meet one another, beyond the stars...
