Paradox Interactive, a publisher of challenging games about running empires, today announces their partnership with XperimentalZ Games to publish Escape the Mad Empire, a dungeon-crawling game with intense tactical pause combat and base management gameplay that will release in Early Access on Steam in 2024 under the Paradox Arc publishing initiative. You can try Escape the Mad Empire today by playing the demo, including a mini-campaign and a challenging boss fight! You can find the demo here.

Escape the Mad Empire is a rogue-like dungeon-crawling game where you control a party of heroes facing near-impossible odds in a series of procedurally-generated, apocalyptic dungeons, filled to the brim with foes, traps, and deadly boss fights. Leverage the tactical pause system to execute complex strategies in the blink of an eye and clutch victory from the jaws of defeat. As you overcome the threats of the apocalypse, manage your heroes' instability, grow your base, and fight to survive until you Escape the Mad Empire or fall to its horrors.




Exciting times are here!

Hm!
Paradox though. Are they going to eternally change the game to keep it 'fresh' and kill my motivation to keep coming back?
I don't want another Stellaris.

There is retro and there is just lazy. This is just too low resolution. Yes, graphics matter. No, they don't have to be cutting edge. But there is a point past which graphics like this don't even pass for placeholders in early development.
