The single player mode was added after the developers implemented a single player tutorial, which they found fun. The developers validated this decision using arguments such as them not being sure how well WiiWare games sell, that the project was mostly to show that they could develop a game from point A to point Z, that the multiplayer component was one of the strongest features of the game, and that beginning with multiplayer allows the developers to balance the game right away. Swords & Soldiers began as simply a split-screen multiplayer game featuring only the Aztecs and the Vikings. The development team was initially made up by seven developers and a "varying amount of interns", and the team used the offices of Dutch Game Garden to develop the game.
While it was originally intended to be a flash game, the developers saw potential in the title and moved it to the WiiWare service. Swords & Soldiers began development after THQ acquired the rights to its first game de Blob. Players must make strategic decisions on what units to build and when to send them out. After being built, units automatically begin marching towards the enemies base and players cast spells to either strengthen their own units or directly attack their enemies. Players collect gold and mana which are used to purchase units and spells. The single player campaign features 10 missions for each faction, with objectives ranging from conquering the enemy's base on the other side of the play area to surviving a full out assault from the enemy or infiltrating their defenses with a limited number of troops. The game boasts both a single player campaign for all three factions and a skirmish mode, as well as competitive split-screen multiplayer and several other modes and minigames players can unlock by progressing through the game. In Swords & Soldiers, three factions (the Aztecs, the Vikings and the Imperial Chinese) are fighting each other to gain the powers of the gods. In June 2018, Ronimo Games started a Kickstarter project for a re-release, titled Swords & Soldiers II: Shawarmageddon. Ī sequel, Swords & Soldiers II, was released on the Wii U eShop in May 2015. Two Tribes released Swords & Soldiers on the Wii U eShop, which was released in North America and Europe on May 22, 2014. It is available for Windows, Mac OS X, Linux, Android, Wii, PlayStation 3, iOS, Nintendo 3DS, Wii U, and Nintendo Switch. It was released in Europe on May 15, 2009, and in North America on June 8, 2009. Swords & Soldiers is a 2D sidescrolling real-time strategy game by Ronimo Games.
