Designer Rick McDowell turns his attention to Kingdoms of Arcania

Long eagerly anticipated, fans of Rick McDowell’s previous Game of the Year award winning multiplayer strategy games Alamaze and Fall of Rome (www.fallofromegame.com) will be delighted to learn the designer has begun to focus on the design for Kingdoms of Arcania. Rick McDowell said, “While Fall of Rome has exceeded our expectations in terms of game play and bug-free, flawless execution, the time has finally come to begin to conceive the ultimate online strategy game, which is what our goal is for Kingdoms of Arcania. Set in that fantastic world where ancient races vie for empire and magic is abundant, Kingdoms of Arcania will provide a robust character model, as well as introducing the industry’s best magic system. We are shooting for a Christmas release of the first realm.”
