Developer League of Geeks released the hellish turn-based gran strategy game Solium Infernum on Steam. Descend into Hell, muster your legions while intoning dark sorceries, devilish schemes, and take the Infernal Throne. To celebrate the occasion, the team also shared the official launch trailer that you can find above.
The Prince of Darkness has vanished, and as we all know power doesn’t like vacuum. The grand Archfiends, left to their own devices, immediately started plotting and scheming against each other. You are one of these eight all-powerful creatures, and now it is up to you to command legions, enlist champions, cast sinister rituals, and trick, rob, and insult your rivals to be crowned Hell’s new Dark Majesty.
“Experience Solium Infernum’s legendary devilish political machinations. Requiring nerves of steel and a true heart of darkness, every order you give will have lasting consequences. Get into the minds of your rivals, second-guessing their every move both on the map and on the floor of Hell’s parliament as you sling insults and demands in the only truly political strategy game.”
The game offers eight playable Archfiends and eight single-player Chronicles. In addition to the single-player Skirmish mode, fledgling Archfiends can also take part in Sessional and Asynchronous 2-6 player Multiplayer.

- Deceive – Strategize, scheme, and battle for control of the infernal realms with 3 new maps ready for launch! Only the most cunning and ruthless will ascend to the throne.
