About the game
What you do in a play session
The heart of the game beats during the voting on public policies and the management of your Seekers, who must neutralize looming threats. But here's the twist: while you strive to be the most influential leader, there might be a traitor among you. If the Cult of Altan achieves its goals, the Cult Conspirator claims victory, regardless of who built the most structures. This creates a dynamic of constant suspicion: is your fellow council member actually helping the city, or are they just paving the way for chaos?
You'll have to decide whether to play as a benevolent leader, cooperating to ensure civilization survives, or embrace your darker instincts to climb the Council's hierarchy. With specialized worker placement and moral dilemmas, every decision impacts not only your progress but the very survival of Din'Lux. Can you balance urban reconstruction with hunting cultists before the darkness consumes everything?
