"The Mausoleum at Ojibake is the final resting place of Mubehasi the Undefeated, the legendary leader of the Oumaji hordes and unifier of the Seven Oumaji Clans. The nearby tower holds the records of their mighty reign, and ensures that the memory of Mubehasi lives on in the hearts of all Oumaji."

Hello Polytopians,

As our last weekly update for a little while, we’d like to tell you more about the Oumaji! The Oumaji are desert nomads famous for their Shebron husbandry and skill in the saddle. Known for their penchant for lightning-fast raids and guerilla tactics, the Oumaji are a formidable foe.

They ride the enduring Shebron:


And eat the nutritious Sajaa cactus:


The Oumaji begin the game with the “Riding” technology, which provides them with a free Rider instead of a Warrior and the ability to train more from the game’s start. Since Riders have the Escape skill, hit-and-run tactics are the bread-and-butter of early Oumaji strategy.



With the power to make Riders immediately, the Oumaji have an unprecedented ability to scout around the nearby land and capture cities faster than anyone else. Of course, due to how the costs of new technologies will rise with every city, you have to be careful to not back yourself into a corner where you can’t purchase any more.

If you want a tribe that lives a fast-paced life in the saddle, or just want a peaceful life resting in the shade of an oasis, then the Oumaji are the tribe for you!

Hello Polytopians!

We've released a patch that should disable the mandatory "tutorial" Perfection game, as it was causing us problems. It may return later, but in an improved state.

This patch doesn't include any other bug fixes, but rest assured that we're working hard to fix the issues you've been reporting. Expect another patch very soon. :)
