Indie game developer Sander Frenken has unveiled the alpha testing phase for his upcoming title, Battledom. This RTS-lite game serves as a spiritual successor to Frenken's 2020 hit, Herodom. Developed over approximately two years by the part-time developer, Battledom closely resembles Frenken's initial vision for Herodom, he says.
Battledom introduces flexible RTS battle mechanics, letting players freely maneuver units across the map. Engage enemies from afar, manually aiming and firing siege weapons for devastating attacks. Strategic formations add a crucial layer of depth to combat.
Build your army using in-game coins. Initially, units are equipped with basic weapons and lack armor. However, players can enhance their units by crafting and equipping weapons and armor, impacting stats such as attack power, range, accuracy, and defense.
Resource gathering is key. Collect wood, leather, and coal in your village and visit the blacksmith, magician, and other crafters to create these essential upgrades.
Frenken is renowned for Herodom, currently holding a 4.6 App Store rating. This game features over 55 collectible heroes, 150+ units and siege weapons, and historically-themed battles. Progress unlocks new hairstyles, bodies, crops, and farm animals.
