Domination Desire: Banished merges epic fantasy storytelling with deep tactical gameplay. Set in a world where demonic succubi threaten to enslave humanity, you play as a exiled hero reclaiming your homeland through diplomacy, combat, and resource management. The game challenges players to balance immediate survival with long-term strategy, featuring dynamic alliances, morally ambiguous choices, and a richly crafted world teetering on collapse.
Key Features
1. Strategic Warfare & Diplomacy: Engage in real-time tactical battles against Succubi forces, utilizing terrain, unit formations, and magic systems. Negotiate with factions like the delayed angelic emissaries, where trust is scarce and alliances shift based on your decisions.
2. Dynamic Kingdom Management: Rebuild Cradlestone from ruins by assigning roles to citizens, managing scarce resources like food and magic-infused materials, and constructing defenses against sieges. Your leadership directly impacts morale, productivity, and survival.
3. Narrative-Driven Choices: Shape the story through branching dialogues and consequential actions. Forge romances, betray allies, or sacrifice resources to uncover secrets about the Succubi’s domination—each playthrough reveals new paths and endings.
Unique Mechanics
1. Morality System: Your actions influence a hidden "Desire" meter, unlocking demonic abilities or divine blessings based on choices (e.g., embracing Succubi corruption for power or upholding virtue for angelic aid).
2. Procedural Threats: Random events—such as demonic incursions, resource shortages, or betrayals—ensure no two playthroughs are identical. Adapt strategies to survive harsh seasons and enemy ambushes.
3. Hero Customization: Develop your hero with skill trees combining combat prowess (e.g., sword mastery, archery), magical arts (e.g., elemental spells, healing), and leadership traits (e.g., inspiration, intimidation).
