The first release of ReTzar, a fan remake of Tzar: The Burden of the Crown, rebuilt from scratch in Rust and Bevy and kept as close to the original as possible.

A castle, an army and a walled town

How to play

  1. Download the zip under Assets below and unzip it somewhere of yours, such as the Desktop or Documents.
  2. Run ReTzar.exe in the ReTzar folder.
  3. The first time, choose the folder where Tzar is installed (GOG, Steam or CD, any language). ReTzar checks it and makes its game data from it in about a minute; after that it starts straight away.

Windows may say that it protected your PC, since the game isn't signed: click More info, then Run anyway.
