Shadows of Forbidden Gods

Take on the role of a Dark Elder God and lead your agents to bring about an apocalypse in a fantasy world. Work in the shadows, avoiding the heroes who will try to stop you, as you bring about plague and famine, ice age and volcanic destruction, madness and never ending night.

## About This Game
A strategy game in which you attempt to bring about the apocalypse, by moving
covert agents through a complex fantasy world to accomplish a wide range of
schemes, plots and rituals. You start the game by bribing guards and
infiltrating minor farming communities and slowly build up your forces until
you are bringing about ice ages, eradicating entire nations with plague,
summoning volcanoes and commanding city-devouring snake-gods.

You play a set of agents and corrupted heroes against the forces of good, the
rulers and heroes of humanity, lead by the Chosen One. They may be stronger
than you, and could eliminate your agents with ease, but you have the
advantage of secrecy, and humans are easily turned one against each other. Why
fight a war against a unified empire when you could shatter in into civil war
and clean up the pieces with orcish hordes?

Complex AIs power the forces of good, and you can, if the mood takes you, play
on their minds. Rulers can be driven to gold-obsessed lunatics, who will cause
their people to rise up in anger at the insane taxations, dukes can be tricked
into turning on their Kings by a carefully placed personal item which implies
a court scandal, heroes can be driven insane by the maddening tales read in
The Laughing King’s Tome and the shadow can corrupt your enemies to the point
where they start funding your agents instead of their own people.

Designed as a very flexible apocalypse simulator, Shadows of Forbidden Gods
allows you to mix and match your toolsets with unique agents and varied
effects, with the human forces responding dynamtically, levelling up their
heroes to face what they believe to be the major threats.
