Konfa Games has released a major new patch for their dystopian management sim, Despotism 3k.
The latest update adds a brand new campaign that players can attempt to conquer. In addition to a new story and random events, this second campaign also features a raid mechanic where you can send your puny meatbag slaves on expeditions to gather resources and materials. You can find a trailer for the game above.
Here’s a rundown of the game:
Humanity is enslaved by an AI… which is awesome, because we’re on the right side of the conflict. Exploit puny humans to extract power and build your own empire! You’ll have to keep track of them to make sure they don’t succumb to exhaustion and hunger… although the weakest ones can always be thrown to the Bioreactor.
In other words, this is a resource management sim with rogue-lite elements, dramatic plot, and an abundance of pop culture references. Also, jokes. Slaughter has never been so fun!
Key Features:
- Humor as dark as your ex’s heart. Immerse yourself in the life of a merciless tyrant!!
- Resource management on steroids. Think fast, to the point, and abandon pity!
- Rogue-lite. Every walkthrough is unique due to randomly generated events. And every failure is fatal — you’ll have to start over!
- Easy to learn, hard to master. It only takes a couple minutes to figure out the game’s mechanics, but using them optimally is no small feat!
Despotism 3k is available on Windows PC, Mac, and Linux via Steam for $7.99.
