Cliffski’s site has this half off (showmethegames.com), so decided to pick it up.
Vic has released the free mini expansion which you can grab here:

Awesome!
For some reason I have a need to play this over the holiday break. Nothing says Christmastime more than a pit of fiends looking to become the next Duke of Hell. Unfortunately for me I didn’t jump on this when Vic was running a promo (neveronsteam) so it looks like full price for me unless someone has a promo code I don’t know about…
Arise!!!
Who had this on their 2022 bingo card?
What in the… what!
To be clear, this is a remake/reboot by the Armello devs, not the original game. I saw it in action last weekend, and it’s quite faithful to the original.
Thomas S. Chickens quoted on the Steam page!
And one of his best. Not even a typo!
Armello was a potentially interesting game ruined by the fact that they just would not let you see more than a tiny portion of the map at any one time. Hopefully they don’t ruin this game that way.
It will be fine: not being notified by what was happening on the ever wrapping map was part of the original design!
I dunno, I’ve found that relentless and annoying map-scrolling is core to the Solium Infernum experience.
This is great! I was just thinking that it’s a shame these mechanics got locked in old UX / old engine hell.
Fascinating multiplayer experience. I can’t think of another game where I’ve done more overthinking of my opponent’s intentions.
“They’re obviously going to do this, which I can counter. But is it obvious because they’re expecting my counter? Do I instead counter their counter of my counter?”
Hey Soren,
Yep. I’m not on the cart yet. :)
Trent said you were really excited when you heard what they are up to. That guy is an amazing world traveler. I think he just needs to check off Antartica at this point.
Thanks for the shout out.
Vic
Is that supposed to be an email?
I like this thread reboot because I get to show off my tutorials for the game once again!
This is my fave page:
Lol. No just me probably sharing too much. I can see why you might think that. With me something like that could happen. :)
Haha – no worries :)
As a beta tester on the original, I can honestly say this made my day.
