Grade school was a simpler time. There was no need to panic about bills, unemployment, or the inevitable nuclear apocalypse. It was a time when your largest concerns were getting through math class alive, not missing your bus, and seizing control of your enemy's capital so you can use its strategic location to gain a monopoly over the trade in the region.
But in spite of the idyllic appearance, the Playground is a harsh place, where children battle each other for dominance. What begins as a small dispute over control of certain parts of the Playground escalates into years of massive wars, which shake the very foundations of the School. Soon, child is fighting against child, giant death robots battle Godzilla, and tanks are rolling across the soccer fields. In the end, there is only one goal in the mind of all who attend the School: The complete conquest and subjugation of all other students.
For those unfamiliar with the Playground Mod, it is a mod based on the playground wars which happened at The Omega's school, from 2nd to 7th grade. However, it is not the most realistic depiction of those wars; since a mod about small kids running around a tiny playground hitting each other would likely not be the most entertaining of mods, instead it is based it off how the participants imagined the wars to be happening. Which means sword fights, nuclear weapons, zombies, and all sorts of other epic things to be found in the imagination of a child. This mod is also a product of its time, as popular culture of its time had a dramatic effect on the course of the playground wars.
The Playground Mod 3.0 is the sequel to the first two Playground Mods, with everything further rebalanced after over 500 hours of in game testing, and many hundreds more working on and implementing changes over the past year to refine it and eliminate bugs. Many aspects of the game were expanded, with a total of 43 new units, 2 new governments, 4 new resources, and 12 new Improvements and Wonders. These were not thrown together for the sake of having a bigger number; they were added in such a way that each of the 14 civs plays in a unique way.
In addition to the elements from The Omega's school, we have included two civilizations from other civfanatics members' wars: Hooray's Chase, and Hikaro Takayama's Lego Republic.
For the full Playground Mod experience, we recommend that you play with Tutorial Mode on
