About Solium Infernum

Solium Infernum poster

Solium Infernum is a grand strategy game of politics, intrigue, and betrayal staged in the ultimate arena imaginable: Hell itself. With the Great Dark Majesty missing and the Conclave demanding a successor, you take the role of a powerful fallen Archfiend vying for the Infernal Throne. Getting there means commanding dread legions, enlisting champion praetors, casting sinister rituals, and outmaneuvering rivals who want the crown just as badly as you do.

Built for up to six players, this simultaneous turn-based strategy game asks for nerves of steel and a genuinely cold heart. Your obstacles are as much bureaucratic as martial, since the labyrinthine political systems of Pandaemonium, Hell's capital, must be navigated while you dodge the schemes of fellow Archfiends. Every order carries lasting consequences, and the simultaneous turn structure constantly forces you into your rivals' heads, second-guessing their plans and your own in the same breath.

You can indulge your dark side as one of eight sinister Archfiends, each a High Demon Ruler of one of the Great Houses of Hell, all competing for control of Pandaemonium. As an indie strategy title on PC, Solium Infernum tests both your mind and your friendships in equal measure.
