Solium Infernum

Играем с друзьями время от времени. Живи, игра, не умирай пожалуйста Т_Т

I've been playing Solium Infernum with my board game group since release, and I cherish every miserable, bastardly turn of it. We've mostly kept up a rate of a game per month, and I even got an online board game group into it. I love it. It hates me, certainly, but I love it. A lot of people who like turn-based strategy and 4x games didn't buy this because they don't want to (or can't) get a group together to play multiplayer, which is what this is designed for. Multiplayer-focused turn-based strategy games almost always seem like a doomed enterprise because of this. And yet somehow, here we have Solium Infernum, a wonderful, strange, cruel, arbitrary, mercilessly opaque game. I don't know how long the servers will be up or how many more moments of genuinely incandescent fury my friends and I can provoke in each other, but I hope the small SI community persists for a long time. I remember playing the demo of the original game and marveling at its bizarre aesthetic and design, and I remember my jaw dropping to the floor when the remake was announced. What a time to be alive. If you're on the fence or you think you might have a shot at getting a crew together to play this, please give it a shot!

A fantastic game that just got a great update. A must for all who like strategy games with depth. You can play again and again, and two games are never the same.

This is such an underrated gem of a game. Really goes far above and beyond what I ever expected and it's been a blast playing this game. If I could only convince a million people to buy this game, just so we could get even more down the line!

Really good strategy game that rewards manipulating your enemies more than acual conquest. A rarity in the genre

This game is boring AF. They say it shines when played in multiplayer, but since I do not...it is as fun as listening to a chess match over the radio.

Love Love this game - i have 9 simultaneous asynchronous games on the go and spend approx 20 mins every day making my moves. I love trying to anticipate what my opponents are doing and seeing if i can outsmart them. i don't agree with negative criticism that says it's too random - the randomness means that you have to plan around the possibility of things happening - you might lose your strongest army so you need to ensure you have other means to win - whether that's creating more infamy, or taking over pandemonium, or secretly putting forward a puppet. The small number of moved but the high number of possible actions per move is the whole point. I only wish there were more people playing - i'd like to try a synchronous game.
