Play as an Archon of Doom to conquer worlds in this fantasy strategy game.
## About This Game
A cultist draws a pentagram on the ground, holds the forbidden Nox Codex and
reads from one of its red inked pages. The cultist chants the Omnia Infernum,
and as the last syllable is spoken, is levitated several feet into the air and
begins to scream uncontrollably. The spirit of the speaker is ripped away,
hurtling into a chasm of darkness, and the anguished voice now becomes the
peal of a deep rumbling laughter and the figure returns to the ground on which
the arcane symbol was drawn.
What now stands in the body of the cultist is no longer a human being – but an
Archon of Doom – who intends to conquer everything in this realm with the aid
of its Celestial Court of worshippers and allies. It turns its attentions to
its immediate surroundings and begins to put into action a diabolical plan…
There will be blood!
In Archons of Doom, you will take on the role of a powerful and evil being
that seeks to conquer all of the many realms of the universe. You have a host
of creatures you can summon from your dark court, all of which serve you until
death – and sometimes beyond it as well. You are up against another Archon of
Doom in each of these realms that wishes to also rule it. Both Archons will
have to fight any independent creatures – the denizens and defenders of the
realms – that will seek to stop either of you. You will have to destroy the
enemy Archon to win the realm.
The game plays out as a turn based clash of wills, expressed as an exploration
into the unknown and featuring hidden movement, line of sight, summoning
reinforcements during the game, arming up yourself and your followers and
seeking out valuable treasures to gain a tactical advantage. Creatures can
fly, return to life when slain, drain the lifeforce from others, charm foes
onto your side and even steal the very weapons right from the hands of your
foes! Some creatures can be ridden by others, some are amphibious, some may
walk through walls and other solid objects, some divide in two and slowly take
over the realm…
Archons are powerful magic users that can use spells to influence the battle
field and destroy their enemies. They can also draw powerful magical circles
on the ground and bask units in them to boost their normal powers to greater
levels. However, you must always protect your Archon – lose it and all the
creatures controlled are similarly, and instantly, Doomed… costing you the
realm.
The game features a campaign to conquer every realm with a specially designed
Archon of your own making, a single realm battle mode where the Archon you
play is randomly generated and a multiplayer mode to take on up to three other
Archons at once. There are also single player only realms in the campaign mode
to test your Archon to the limit. Only the strong will survive. All else is
Doomed…
