Dummynation (2022)
You are given unlimited power over a country, with a single promise to fulfill: world domination. How you manage to achieve it is up to you. Expand your territory by military occupation to gain more power, but do not spread too thin too fast or your empire will crumble even faster. Analyze and manipulate diplomatic relations to invade countries while avoiding creating too many powerful enemies. Use the resources in your country to sustain your research and military campaigns, but if you spend too much your land will be impoverished and you will fall behind in the balance of power. Determine the ideology and economic policy of your country and outgrow your rivals in the race for world domination. Simplicity The gameplay is designed to minimize the micromanagement and chores typically found in grand strategy games, allowing casual players to quickly pick up the basic mechanics and be competitive without much effort, while leaving room for improvement for those who want to go the extra mile to study and optimize the benefits of the more complex features. Real-time annexations In Dummynation, resources are not tied to entire provinces, but are inherent to each specific point, and when a conquest occurs, these places and their resources are progressively annexed over time. Meanwhile, resistance forces can automatically arise, holding off the conquest and wearing down the attacker. Custom mode Edit almost anything at any time during a custom game, including the territory, resources, flag and name of each country, and game parameters. Add or remove countries, raise or sink land, and paint data on the map to create new scenarios. Cross-platform workshop: upload your own creations or download scenarios created by the community. God mode: play as no country and watch chaos unfold as AIs compete against each other in a world where you have the ultimate power. Cross-platform multiplayer Play with friends in private custom games, using the default or any created scenario, where you can edit most of the data as the game advances. Compete against random players in a battle royale for world domination, as each player works to defend their own interests. Cooperate with other players in a team-based world war to ensure your coalition prevails and earn points to climb the leaderboard. Replays Relive your last multiplayer or single-player games and watch the rise of your empire, or learn from your defeats by studying how it all went wrong.
