Side Quests & Activities

Beyond the main campaign, Age of Wonders 4 offers a rich tapestry of side quests and optional activities that significantly enhance your empire. Quest Events often trigger at the start of a turn—such as Hero Recruitment quests where a powerful leader asks to join your ranks—or through exploration. Common side activities include clearing Infestations to secure your borders and Narrative Events that force moral alignment choices. Engaging with these diversions can grant you powerful artifacts, unique units, and crucial resources, making your main quest much smoother. Don't overlook these opportunities to strengthen your Godir and your domain.
