Check out a description:

Rule amidst chaos! Fifteen years after Avyanna freed Nevendaar from the tyrannical grasp of the gods, Disciples: Domination takes you back to a realm in peril. In this dark fantasy strategy RPG with turn-based combat, take your place on Queen Avyanna’s throne and strive to hold together a kingdom in ruins.

The fire of doubt burns within her, ignited by the crushing weight of the throne in Yllian and fueled by twisted dreams of becoming one of the monsters she once defied and destroyed. Paralyzed by fear and haunted by her own power, Avyanna’s rule begins to unravel. Allies vanish and desert her. An unknown force spreads discord and madness through her realm.

The choice is yours—shape the future, whether toward salvation or ruin. As you pursue the truths behind the relentless conflicts, black magic, and hidden conspiracies infecting your decaying empire, you will face betrayals, strife, and shadowy schemes. Discover the long-lost Mountain Clans, witness the rise of an ancient cult, and confront a corrupted Seer whose visions have stirred bitter grievances—all while old enemies muster their strength.

It will take every ounce of courage to save Nevendaar. Are you brave enough to face—and embrace—your darkest truths?
