Atre: Dominance Wars is a strategy where you play as a Sorcerer who became an Elder. Your goal is to learn new spells, subdue your enemies and ascend to God. In the later stage of the game you can also get access to God spells which can change the map.
While doing that you will encounter The Merge that slowly destroys your playable area, there are ways to counter it by capturing those regions and binding them to your Throne which is your seat of power.
Betray or get betrayed (or prevent both)
There are three ways to win the game, each of those victories brings certain risks.
Only one player can win the game
They can 100% expect betrayal from anyone in their empire once the victory count starts
This gives an interesting push and pull and the game stays intense until the end, as victories shift in the last moment, and allies betray you, or enemies start working together.
Features
Research unit mutations and transform your armies to obliterate any enemy you come across.
Build thriving cities, construct special structures and amass legions of devoted followers.
As an Elder, research spells and gain a diverse set of powers - from spreading prosperity to bringing total annihilation. The most powerful Elders can ascend to Godhood and open the Gate between worlds. During this period you are granted absolute power and magic that can destroy the land itself, but… this power comes with a price, and the Gate between worlds stays open for powerful entities from the other side…
Magically bind various gems to craft unique artifacts that imbue you or your armies with unparalleled might. Name the artifacts as you wish, using ancient Glagolitic script.
Given to you by the gods, immortal Avatars will lead armies in your name. With each victory they gain experience; level them up, equip them with powerful artifacts and shape them into juggernauts of destruction.
Let your Envoy roam the shattered world, and send your Avatars to conquer it all. Capture cities, construct magical monoliths and create a dominion that bends to your will.
The way the world is generated depends on the magical attributes you choose when you create your character. So the world responds to your choices from the very beginning. The events you come across also change depending on these magical attributes. Take note: Events are steeped in the lore of this new world and when presented with multiple choices, unexpected consequences may arise if you don’t do some detective work.
With this mechanic, Atre: Dominance Wars promises a fresh experience for every different playthrough.
