A diabolically complex grand strategy game set in hell is raised from the dead.
Solium Infernum was a turn-based strategy phenomenon back in the early 2010s. Instead of taking the fight to the usual strategy arenas—historical battlefields, high fantasy landscapes, intergalactic colonies—it had a gaggle of archfiends vying for supremacy in a John Milton/Dante-inspired Hell. It was developed in Adobe Director by Vic Davis, a legend of the tabletop scene whose primary work is with board games, and who has since retired from game development.
studio League of Geeks has announced a ground-up"re-imagining" of Solium Infernum. In addition to throwing off the shackles of Adobe Director graphical austerity, the League of Geeks project will"take some liberties" while also adding much more modern multiplayer functionality.
"It's a natural progression for us because Solium Infernum was a major inspiration for Armello," League of Geeks' co-founder Trent Kusters told me, adding that Davis very enthusiastically embraced the idea of rebooting the game."We did a bunch of paper prototyping for Armello, and the actual main version of the prototype that turned it into Armello was when we added a few elements from Solium Infernum.
