Helios

Helios

The high priests have finally found the secret to a happy life. With the sun on their side, they have found a way to improve their way of life better than anyone. Will you be able to achieve their greatness and develop your plot of land in order to gather the most benefits? Let the sun shine on your territory and your temples to collect the resources that they bring. Surround yourself with the right people to reach your goal. After all, where there is shadow, there is also light.

In Helios, players are high priests in a distant world of the sun god AHAU, and the power of the sun drives everything in the game as players try to build temples, expand cities, and make their civilization flourish.

Development can succeed, though, only if you've secured a supply of the limited raw materials available, and the more that you've built of your temple, the more expensive the remaining parts will be. Glass manastones are the game's currency, and with them you can acquire people, increase the number of points you'll score, and more.
