Battledom Alpha: New Strategy Game Takes the Stage

Indie game developer Sander Frenken has revealed that his upcoming strategy game, Battledom, is currently undergoing alpha testing. This RTS-lite title serves as a spiritual successor to Frenken's 2020 hit, Herodom. Developed over two years by the part-time developer, Battledom closely resembles his original vision for Herodom, a popular tower defense game.

Battledom introduces flexible RTS battle mechanics, allowing players to freely maneuver units across the battlefield. Engage enemies from afar, manually controlling siege weapons for devastating attacks. Strategic formations add depth to the combat experience.

Players will amass coins to recruit units, initially equipped with basic weapons and no armor. However, customization is key. Equip units with a variety of weapons and armor to enhance their stats, including range, accuracy, defense, and attack power.

Resource gathering is essential. Instead of finding equipment through exploration, players must craft it within their village. Collect resources like wood, leather, and coal, then visit the blacksmith, magician, and other crafters to create the necessary items.

Frenken is widely recognized for Herodom, which boasts a 4.6-star rating on the App Store. This game features over 55 collectible heroes, 150+ units and siege weapons, and historically-inspired battles. Progression unlocks new hairstyles, bodies, crops, and animals for your in-game farm.
