League of Geeks, developers of the hugely successful indie strategy game Armello, have officially launched Solium Infernum, a political grand strategy game of subterfuge, intrigue, and betrayal set in Hell. The game is now available on PC via Steam with a temporary 15% discount for $33.99 / €33.14 / £28.47 (price without discount $39.99 / €38.99 / £33.50), opening the gates of Hell to all grand strategy fans.
In Solium Infernum, players assume the role of one of Hell’s eight great Archfiends. They must outwit and outmanoeuvre their rivals to claim the vacant Infernal Throne through the mastery of devious political and military strategy. With a wealth of tactics awaiting their disposal, players have to bluff, backstab, and sow betrayal on their path to victory.
The game boasts diverse multiplayer modes, accommodating both time-strapped players and those seeking extended strategic encounters. Asynchronous multiplayer matches support up to six players with turns taken across several days or weeks and requiring just a few minutes to play every day. For strategy fans favouring immediate action, real-time multiplayer is also available.
