MINDSCAPE - Diplomacy

Description

Diplomacy is one of the world’s most appreciated and well-known strategy franchises, originally developed by Avalon Hill and today a part of the Hasbro (NYSE: HAS) portfolio.





Features:



· Diplomacy will feature single player capabilities, which will remove the need for real-world opponents and will allow the player to encounter life-like computer opponents at any time.



· Graphical negotiation language, which will allow the player to communicate efficiently with humans and AI players alike.



· Multiplayer experience. By capturing the essence of the player interaction in the original board game, the computer version will offer both the classic versions of Diplomacy as well as more optimised versions that will decrease the amount of time required of players.



· True diplomacy includes the ability to communicate and agree on anything that makes sense in the game world. It allows the player to form agreements and to break them without artificial constructs. The player will decide whom to trust, and building that trust will be part of the gameplay, rather than a formal element of the rules.



· Online server with ranking ladders, tournaments and matchmaking services allowing players to participate in competitions over the Internet or to play by e-mail in addition to playing online.



· In-depth tutorial guiding the player step by step through the intricacies of Diplomacy.



Core Gameplay:





· With life-like opponents, gamers can take on the 20th century’s mightiest European nations at any time on their PCs through singleplayer or multiplayer modes.



· An enhanced graphical language will be the negotiating tool between the player and his human and AI opponents.



· Avatars representing your opponents will express feelings depending on your actions and play style.



· More than just a name, Diplomacy allows the player to negotiate anything that is logically negotiable. Form alliances or break them on a whim - the player decides who to trust and how to convince others to trust him. Careful though, other nations’ rulers have their own agendas



Fantasy:





· From the board to the monitor, put your strategy and negotiation skills to the test in this interactive version of the classic board game Diplomacy.





High-level Concept:





· Set in early 20th century Europe, this PC adaptation brings the power struggles of seven mighty nations to life like never before. Its gameplay puts focus on shrewd negotiations and overall strategy
