Battledom Alpha Testing Unveils Immersive Strategy Experience

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 popular 2020 release, Herodom. Developed over two years by the part-time developer, Battledom closely resembles his initial vision for Herodom.

Battledom introduces flexible RTS battle mechanics, enabling players to freely maneuver units across the battlefield. Players directly target enemies and manually operate siege weapons for devastating attacks. Strategic formations further enhance the gameplay experience.

Players earn coins to recruit units, initially equipped with basic weapons and no armor. However, extensive customization options allow players to equip units with various weapons and armor pieces, impacting stats such as range, accuracy, defense, and attack power.

These items aren't found through exploration; instead, they are crafted within the player's village. Players gather resources like wood, leather, and coal to create items at various crafting stations, including the blacksmith and magician.

Frenken's previous title, Herodom, enjoys 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, body types, crops, and animals for the in-game farm.

iOS users can participate in the Battledom alpha test via TestFlight. For the latest updates and information, follow Sander Frenken on X (formerly Twitter) or Reddit. His other games are also available on the App Store.
