We make strategy games.

Wield Interactive is a small studio in Queensland, Australia.

So far we've made two RTS games set in the Near East Bronze Age: TFC: The Fertile Crescent, and its sequel, TFC2: Collapse of the Bronze Age.

How we got here

Anders and André founded Wield Interactive in 2021. The first TFC was mostly a two-man project. It went into Early Access in 2022, reached 1.0 in 2024, and is rated Very Positive on Steam, which we're still pretty happy about.

After that, we teamed up with MicroProse to make a sequel. That gave us a clean sheet, and we used it for the thing we'd wanted to make for a long time: a campaign with real characters in it.

To do that, we built our own map editor and mission scripter from scratch, and worked with a talented artist and a narrative designer.
