Release Description:
Prepare yourself for Solium Infernum, the grand strategy game of politics, intrigue and betrayal, set in the ultimate arena of Hell.
Satan’s mysteriously vanished and Hell is in an uproar. Play as one of eight all-powerful and menacing Archfiends and indulge your Machiavellian dark side. 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.
- Eight playable Archfiends
- Eight single-player Chronicles
- Single-player Skirmish mode
- Revelations Tutorial Scenario
- Sessional and Asynchronous 2-6 player Multiplayer
- Dozens of Infernal Legions, including unique enormous Titans.
- Champion Praetors and dark Artifacts fit for any Archfiend!
Play 2-6 player multiplayer games with your soon-to-be ex-friends in a single session of deceit and politics, or put your friendships to the test in quick daily bursts with Solium Infernum’s infamous asynchronous multiplayer for a truly harrowing scheme-in-your-sleep experience.
If you love dark art, you’re in the right place. Brimming with striking visions of Hell unlike anything you’ve seen before, Solium Infernum is an infernal feast for the eyes with multitudes of individual dark paintings to enjoy. Every item of the game is accompanied by mind-blasting artwork, a feat declaring Solium Infernum a winner of the 2022 Game Makers Sketchbook.
Originally inspired by Milton’s epic poem, Paradise Lost, League of Geeks’ (known for seminal digital board game Armello) sophomore title is a re-imagining and modernisation of Vic Davis’ critically acclaimed cult-classic of the same name, hailed as a masterpiece of strategy game design.
Once again, prepare to lose yourself within ‘the cold glory of a difficult decision’ as we resurrect Solium Infernum from the depths of Hell.
Note: The following quotes refer to the original Solium Infernum (2009) by Vic Davis.
“Solium Infernum is a political wargame set in hell… The game is now finished, and none of the friends survived. By which I mean, we all hate each other now.”
– Rock Paper Shotgun
“It’s a game about playing other people, in both senses of the word…. This is game design based on psychology as much as rules.”
– Quarter to Three
“More than any game I’ve played in years, Solium Infernum nails the sensation of staring at a screen and losing yourself in the cold glory of a difficult decision.”
– Game Developer (formerly Gamasutra)
“Solium Infernum kicked my knees out from under me … this game took my past experience with strategy games and threw it, like a pro basketball player, into a bin eighty feet away.”
– Eurogamer
“One of the best games of the year.”
— Three Moves Ahead
The ‘Pinnacle to the Pit’ Update Open Beta Commences!
The gates of Hell have opened! Join the Beta to play Solium Infernum’s newest, huge update.
We’re proud to (finally!) announce that the Open Beta for the Pinnacle to the Pit update is NOW LIVE.
How to Join
Right-click on Solium Infernum in your Library games list and select ‘Properties’.
Navigate to Game Version & Betas, enter the Password: sibeta1142026 and click ‘Check Code’.
You should now see ‘release_1_1_4_beta’ in the list above the password field. Select that option to download and use the Beta branch.
Purpose of the Beta
We’re a small team without the internal testers or loose change to test this big, strange behemoth of a game, and ‘Pinnacle to the Pit’ represents the most substantial update to the game in the two years since launch.
So, we’re releasing it to the community in Open Beta to help us test the new content. We’re excited to get a range of people playing the game. Many Solium Infernum players are die-hard veterans who know the game inside out, but having all experience levels is also important to the process.
When the game is largely tested and issue-free, we’ll release it to the main branch.
Playing on the Beta Branch
EXTREMELY IMPORTANT NOTE:
This beta is on a completely separate server instance. This means you cannot play regular games of Solium Infernum on the Beta Branch, and vice versa, whether singleplayer or multiplayer. This prevents any confusion or accidental use of the wrong branch while taking turns.
You’ll need to swap back and forth between branches if you want to play regular games at the same time.
If you have notifications switched on, you will receive them regardless of which branch you’re on. Uou will still have to switch branch manually to access them.
Please use the Bug Sender button (top right of screen) if you notice or suspect any Bugs. This is the fastest way for us to identify and resolve issues.
Join the LoG Discord server to talk about your experiences! The Bug Sender is for bugs, but the LoG Discord is great for hearing general sentiment and more qualitative feedback.
Please concentrate on the new Beta content when looking for bugs (but obviously report any others, particularly any that might stall games).
We do love theory-crafting and wild ideas from players, but keep in mind that the update content is largely finished, and the Beta is about testing and refining the content rather than creating new ideas or large modifications.
Localisation: Apologies to our non-english speaking players, the Beta supports English only. Localisation for the update will occur during the Beta once it is stable.
Community
Thanks to all players jumping in to test the Update Beta and helping us to make it the best it can be. The community for Solium Infernum is a welcoming and passionate place – if you’re looking for experienced advice, a place to find games, or just for the discussion, jump aboard the LoG Discord Server.
