Hmm, I think that concept of text-based game is quite retro, so this is good place for searching people who would be interested in something like that.
Thank You very much for reading and feedback! Yes I think that many people felt like that at least once.
Thank You very much for this feedback! Yes I definitely has problems with presenting emotions credibly.
Thank You very much for reading! Were there some things You disliked?
Dominion of Darkness is a strategy/RPG text game in which the player takes on the role of a Sauron-style Lord of Darkness with the goal of conquering the world. He will carry out his plans by making various decisions. He will build his army and send it into battles, weave intrigues and deceptions, create secret spy networks and sectarian cults, recruit agents and commanders, corrupt representatives of Free Peoples and sow discord among them, collect magical artifacts and perform sinister plots.
Here is the prototype ( I published it some time ago, but now I am searching for people to test new, extended and improved version): https://adeptus7.itch.io/dominion
I am looking for people eager to help with playtesting - especially fluent in English. You will play, send me Your opinion, information about possible bugs, some details about stats achieved during it.
If You are interested, please send me an email on: brat.dominik@op.pl .
Hi! I wrote about this problem in the game description on itch.io. "I heard that itch version sometimes doesn't work on the phones with Android. If it is the case, You can play downloadable version: https://www.mediafire.com/file/pj1ebcl1ke56cgs/Dominion_of_Darkness_1.993.html/file It works fine even when online version don't - I don't know why". Sorry for invonvenience but at this moment this is only 100% working solution I found.
As I wrote, story is OK. Not great, but it has some dark fantasy elements I like.
I had this feeling with two first books too.
Thank You very much! I hope You will like it at least a bit.
Thank You for Your interest! When You play, please let me know about Your feelings.
The first one I noticed is in the first paragraph. I’m unsure if it’s a mistake or an obscure word, but when googling the word “pacrossct” I got no related results.
Oh, it is obvious mistake, there should be just "pact". I remember correcting it, but it looks like it was not saved or something. I corrected it once again and looks like this time it sticked. Thank you very much for bringing this to my attention.
Hope You had some fun with it ;)
Sadly sometimes there is this problem with Android. Try disable dark theme. If it not working, than as I wrote in description of the game "You can play downloadable version: https://www.mediafire.com/file/pj1ebcl1ke56cgs/Dominion_of_Darkness_1.993.html/file It works fine even when online version don't - I don't know why". Sorry for an inconvenience.
Thanks for Your interest! I am using TWINE. If Uou like Interactive Fiction, you can check my other works: https://adeptusrpg.wordpress.com/category/english-text-based-game-interactive-fiction/
This is dark fantasy/horror story, stylized as an ancient oral legend, which tells the story of a simple man’s journey and gradual descent into darkness - and ascension to power. We tried to give our villain protagonist some psychological and philosophical deep, not just “HAHAHA I am evil and will rule the world!”.

Hello! I am creator of text-based games (which I guess is quite retro) and wanted to present to You one of them. "Dominion of Darkness” is a strategy/RPG text game in which the player takes on the role of a Sauron-style Lord of Darkness with the goal of conquering the world. He will carry out his plans by making various decisions. He will build his army and send it into battles, weave intrigues and deceptions, create secret spy networks and sectarian cults, recruit agents and commanders, corrupt representatives of Free Peoples and sow discord among them, collect magical artifacts and perform sinister plots.Note – one game takes about 1 hour, but the premise is that the game can be approached several times, each time making different decisions, getting different results and discovering something new. Feedback is very much welcome. Very, very much. Altough game is playable and winnable now, I am still working on improving it, so all suggestions are appreciated.

I am reading "Dread Wyrm", third book in the Traitor Son Cycle by Miles Cameron. Plot and world are OK, but I have feeling they are written in clumsy style.
