Dummynation is a premium strategy game for PC from developer Alejandro Hernandez Ferrero. In this grand strategy simulation experience, players are tasked with expanding their territory by conquering neighboring countries using the near-limitless resources at their disposal. They must do whatever it takes to fulfill their mission of complete world dominance.
Much like Domination or Age of Conflict: World War Simulator, Dummynation utilizes minimalistic graphics to portray its simulated encounters and battles. Despite its appearance, it boasts rather deeply strategic gameplay that lets players see their tactics come into play and witness their territory gradually expanding in real-time.
Dominance-themed games are a rather unique breed of simulators that essentially let you experience what it's like to become a world conqueror. They feature themes that range from historical to more sci-fi-fueled scenarios for fans to dive into. However, they can also be quite complicated for some. In comes Dummynation, a condensed and simplified take on the sub-genre that is more beginner-friendly.
In Dummynation, you are given charge of a superpower nation and tasked with achieving world domination using your military might. Deploy your troops to conquer neighboring countries and amass valuable resources. Use them to fund scientific research and future campaigns, while balancing your land's wealth. Sustain economic growth to ensure your place as the mightiest and strongest country among your peers.
Manipulate diplomatic relations to reduce the global impact of your campaigns and avoid making too many enemies. Outside the main campaign, there's the multiplayer mode, wherein you can participate in a large-scale battle royale against others online. On another note, one area where the game needs more work is game balance, with some countries being too overpowered even when you've amassed a substantial force that can take them on.
If you've been curious about trying out domination games but have always been put off by their complicated nature, Dummynation offers a simplified experience. It requires much less guesswork and hand-holding while still retaining the core aspects that make these types of games fun and engaging to begin with. It serves as a nice entrypoint to the genre from where you can start from. Recommended.
