​Caxtilteca

​Caxtilteca is a 4 player mini RTS set in colonial Mexico. Play as Tlaxcalan dukes defending themselves against their former friends and allies for land. The only way to do this is to organize your army of peasants, knights, and towers to the most efficient arrangement for money collection while also constantly juggling your opponents who have the exact same goal. Messy pulse pounding multiplayer ensues.
