Slay is a simple to learn game of strategy and cunning set in medieval times. The island is divided up between the six players, and you must try to capture your enemies' land and link up your own territories to create larger and stronger ones. The game starts with by clicking the tree icon. You begin capturing land by attacking with your peasants.
Once your territories become richer you can combine peasants to make stronger and stronger people (Spearmen, Knights and then Barons) who can kill weaker enemy troops, or knock down their castles. Just be careful that you don't create too many expensive men or the territory will go bankrupt!. Jumping men and capitals with enough money to buy new things are highlighted in the Map window by flashing red dots. Click on the capital to show the details of the particular place. The updated version of Slay for Windows allows you to play games over a network or the Internet.
