In a nutshell, it is a turn-based strategy game where you try to lead a "Pretender God" to a position of supreme promenence following the disappearing of the previous supreme being. You need to spread your Dominion (the strength of your follower's belief in you) in addition to conquering new provinces for their various forms of income.

That's just the tip of the iceberg though. There's a huge amount of content in the game!

Is there a demo for Dominions 2?
What are the requirements to run it?
Any screenshots available?

The demo will be out in the coming weeks.

Not sure if this has already been asked, but are there plans to port/release other games on Mac OS X?

thanks,

Dominions is not really "ported" to the Mac OS, so much as designed from the ground up to have all code that is OS specific in separate files, so as to make it able to be written to work on other OS easily. Other Shrapnel games would take a huge amount of work to port to Mac or other OS than Windows.

Actually, I could port Trader 2 to the MAC OS X and System OS'es fairly easily (though a little rewriting might be necessary, but it doesn't use DirectX or any Windows exclusive stuff), but I have to ask myself: would there be enough interest to warrant the extra work? I wasn't too sure, which is why I didn't do it to begin with.
