About Sovereign Vale: Empire Builder
Raise a single medieval town into an empire that spans a sea of islands — and rule it the fair way. No ads. No loot boxes. No pay-to-win. Just a city-builder that respects your time and your intelligence. Sovereign Vale is a slow-burn strategy game in the tradition of the great browser empire-builders, rebuilt for iPhone. Gather wood, stone and food; assign your citizens; raise your Town Hall and unlock a Library, Barracks, Marketplace and more. Every upgrade takes real time, so your realm keeps growing whether you're watching or not. BUILD A LIVING REALM - Manage production, storage, population and happiness across every island you hold - Settle colonies, each with its own luxury — wine, spices, marble, sulfur, crystal - Ship goods between islands on standing trade routes and merchant cogs RESEARCH AN AGE OF PROGRESS - 50+ technologies across five trees, from Well Digging to the Imperial Age - Unlock new buildings, units, wonders and empire-wide bonuses - No dead ends: your empire never resets — it only grows deeper COMMAND ARMIES - Recruit men-at-arms, archers, knights, siege engines and warships - A real battle line where unit types counter one another - Clear barbarian camps that rebuild stronger, and defend your shores RISE THROUGH THE RANKS - Earn Renown for everything you achieve and climb a permanent player Level - Chase named titles from Settler to Sovereign - An un-cheatable leaderboard: every score is re-simulated on our servers, so the board can never be faked A WEEKLY REASON TO RETURN - The Prestige Race resets every week — earn Renown to reach Bronze, Silver, Gold or Crown and claim a season chest - Rule through crises and windfalls: plague, revolt, festivals, windmill fires and more, each a real choice with visible consequences - Raise Wonders and Great Works that outlast kings PLAY WITH FRIENDS (optional) - Share a friend code, visit friends' realms, and send a daily gift - Multiplayer is entirely opt-in and off by default — your realm never leaves your device unless you say so FAIR BY DESIGN - No advertisements, ever - No loot boxes, no gacha, no gambling mechanics - We sell time and identity — never power. Crowns speed things up and personalize your realm; they can never buy a place on the leaderboard. A kingdom is built one decree at a time. Found yours today.

What’s new
Version 1.63 · Updated October 16, 2026
Opens reliably The loading screen no longer stalls, and a long spell away is caught up in the background instead of holding the door shut. Coming back after a night closed is a clean relaunch. Your realm stays your realm More safeguards against an update or a patchy iCloud connection replacing a saved empire. Nothing is written until it has been checked. Also fixed Building costs now fit on one line on every screen size. Season chests show their rewards as goods, not words.
