Wyverns Lair, evening.
"Mr.Wyvern, helloooooo."
"What?"
"I have a new Game for you! It is called Dominate."
"Dominate? Sounds like a cool World Conquering Game!"
"No."
"A First Person Shooter with great Weapons?"
"No."
"Ehm, a Military Flight Simulator?"
"No."
"Something ... dirty?"
"Oh my God, NO! It is a puzzle Game."
".....okaaaaaay."
Welcome to DOMINATE!
In 1990 a Casual Game called ATAXX was released on the popular Gaming Plattforms AMIGA, C64 and ATARI ST.
It is played on a square playing field. Here, the classic Reversi Game pieces come into play.
The goal is to occupy the most playing fields. Both Players start in the 4 corners of the Game Board.

Step by step, the tiles come onto the field where adjacent stones of the opponent are taken over and replaced with their own color.
If you move only 1 Field, the starting Field remains occupied with your own color, if you jump 2 Fields, even over opposing stones, then the starting field becomes free but of course the destination not.
You play this until the Board is full, or a Player loses all the Stones. When the Field is full, the one with the most Stones wins.

This Reversi and Othello Adaptian like Concept found many Fans and like Solitaire Ataxx got many Followers.
One was DOMINATE in 1993 for Windows.
Now we have 2022 and the Developer eSolutions took on this addicting Board Game. Already published some casual Games, they managed to
transport DOMINATE into today in a good way. Many Levels on different Boards. Nice Graphics and Sounds and fluid Gameplay in a Retro Feeling Way.
To be honest, DOMINATE was one of my first Games on my first PC and i loved it. So i felt very familar playing it today.
