Machiavelli

About the Game

There are some deals you just can’t shake; you made one with a trickster demon… and they have demands. Granted immortality, you must navigate through tough decisions in order to build the perfect civilization. Each time you rule, your kingdom will fall - it is up to you to take what you learn about governing forward into the next era!

All the while, the dealmaking-demon will come knocking at your citadel walls-- asking for his fair share… You will face varied, unrelenting challenges combined with the collapse-and-start-over mechanic that will keep you hooked into a cycle of rise and fall.

Machiavelli combines classic rogue-lite progression with the gameplay of a city builder. Featuring rewarding resource-management, randomized objectives and events, a sprawling skill tree, in-depth statistics on your civilization’s Order, grid-based city building, and a world where snap-decisions determine a kingdom’s rise or collapse. Not to mention, the demon’s insatiable desire for the souls of your citizens. Balance benevolence and cruelty in this fast-paced, replayable game of whimsy and wrath. 

• Design and plan your civilization with several buildings to meet the needs of your denizens.

• Maintain Order by balancing 4 different civilization stats.

• Command a suite of Royal Decrees and Royal Scales.

• Encounter a multitude of objectives and events as your kingdom grows.

• Unlock over 30 nodes on the Soul Tree.

• Uphold your end of the deal by delivering to the demon a constant stream of souls from your denizens…
