Instead of generating massive pieces of unremarkable land, it creates very focused locations dotted with tactical combat where the players have to carefully decide their moves based on the equipment of their units and their enemies.
The development of NovaMundi was accompanied by experts in the history and language of the Muisca including Jos Manuel Gmez, a descendant and up-keeper of the originary indigenous culture, who provided the team with knowledge based on the most recent investigations to give the game a touch of authenticity in the portrayal of the indigenous people and their settlements, which is mixed with a little bit of historical fiction to provide the players with an exciting setting where they can still learn.
