First English language video review and further plans for DoD


Hello! 

I wanted to announce two things.
First, the first Dominion of Darkness video review in English by woodsmanthepeasant has been released. I invite you to take a peek at it -

, as well as other indie game reviews on the channel. Woodssmanthepeasant also has an account here on itch.io, where he is developing an interesting project - a life simulator in ancient Rome: https://woodsmanthepeasant.itch.io/ .

At now, my main concepts are:
- deepening the management of your own domain - at the moment there are only occasional events in which you can spend wealth to improve it, I plan to add a system in which the player will be able to put various buildings that give bonuses on an ongoing basis,
- adding an additional land to conquer/corrupt, a merchant republic in the south,
- the addition of an area covered with the ruins of the fallen empire of witch-kings, to which it will be possible to send expeditions under the command of the player character / his henchmen,
- deepening the ways of infiltrating kingdoms - instead of clicking the abstract "increase your influence", the player will be able to create/enhance specific organizations within each kingdom, which will have additional effects, organizations will also interact with each other more often, sometimes to the benefit, sometimes to the detriment of the player,
- addition of elemental choice for the player - this will primarily affect the flavor of his spells, but in addition, new additional races of minions/enemies will be associated with each element, in addition, the element will be able to affect the available cults, e.g. a character with the element of earth will be able to create an agricultural cult as a cover for his spies.

So, you can consider the currently published game as another demo/prototype/alpha version (which doesn't change the fact that it is playable and winnable) and I invite you to stay tuned for future updates! Perhaps this is one of those indie projects that are developed indefinitely.
