About Masters of Albion
Masters of Albion is a god‑game where you wield a divine hand to shape towns, craft items and direct the lives of Albion’s inhabitants. The game blends instant building, real‑time exploration and nightly battles against corrupted creatures, letting you choose creation or destruction at will.
Set in a world where ancient sorcery resurfaces, you must defend against the Orken Stone’s corruption while managing commerce, hiring workers and customizing structures. Every action influences the fate of Albion, and nightfall brings a test of your defensive strategies and god‑like powers.
01 / THE GUIDE
God Hand Building System
The God Hand lets you design and place buildings anywhere, customize them with paint and odd designs, and combine types for multi‑purpose spaces. Production lines can be built and staffed, allowing you to fulfil narrative‑driven orders instantly.
There are no timers or delays—if you build it, it works immediately, giving you full control over town layout and business management.
- Experiment with unconventional building shapes to discover useful multi‑purpose layouts.
- Use the instant build feature to react quickly to emerging threats or opportunities.

Real‑Time Exploration
You can roam Albion from above or step into the lives of your people, taking control of heroes, workers, animals and more. Exploration is in real time, letting you complete quests, find hidden treasures and venture into underground caves.
Crafting weapons and armour for your heroes happens during this exploration, preparing them for upcoming challenges while you experience the world directly.
- Switch between aerial view and ground level to uncover hidden treasures.
- Take advantage of real‑time control to gather resources while exploring caves.

Night Defense Mechanics
When night falls, corrupted creatures attack towns in search of souls. You can build defensive structures, position heroes, raise walls and create choke points to slow the advance.
Direct god‑hand powers let you strike enemies with lightning, set fire to hordes, or grab objects like boulders and barrels to use as weapons, providing both strategic and hands‑on options.
- Plan wall placements to funnel enemies into narrow paths before using god‑hand attacks.
- Combine built defenses with real‑time hero control for layered protection.

Combat Cards and Buffs
Victories at night grant Combat Cards, which boost your god‑like powers with unique buffs and gifts. The strongest fighters can claim the full spectrum of these cards, enhancing future battles.
These rewards create a progression loop where successful defense improves your ability to face tougher nightly threats.
- Focus on winning early night battles to start accumulating Combat Cards quickly.
- Compare the buffs on different cards to build a balanced set for varied threats.
