Will Never BeThe Same

Swords and Stones is a genre-defining Real-Time Strategy wargame. In this complete sandbox experience, you are the leader, builder, and master strategist. Set in a lost age of Earth’s history—a decade after a civilization-cleansing flood—you must lead your people through a harsh new world. Harvest resources, research lost technologies, and train for war. Transform a humble woodland camp into a mighty kingdom—an island of hope in a sea of unknown danger.

Why play S&S?

World first

Never before has a Kingdom building RTS been bought to the open tabletop before; S&S's unique mechanics, and stunning models brings the players into a fully immersive experience.

Dedicated designers

S&S was made out of our love for the RTS and fantasy genres by dreamers, storytellers, and master creators; we will continually support and release content for as long as people play it! The Human factions are just the beginning!

Full Control

There are many ways to skin a basilisk, some require just a knife, some need a heavy plow pulled with a dozen warhorses. S&S's sandbox 'open table' design gives players the ultimate control.

Community

Not only do we aim for the most fun and exciting gaming experience possible; but also a social one - connecting people near and far; a platform to share victories and losses over the lands of Avalon
