1. Territory Idle

   

   A minimalist kingdom builder where every restart is a step forward. Build tiles for wheat, wood, stone or faith, pick a pantheon and a god with their own perks, then abdicate, take the gold and buy new tiles. Hire a hero, kit him out, and try a fresh strategy each run. Slow to start, deep once it opens up.
