Gameplay
DomiNations is a massively multiplayer online game. Players build a base with Defensive, Economy, and Army. An example of a military building is the Barracks along with several wonders of the world and a town centre. After training appropriate troops, players search for suitable opponents to attack and gain loot and medals.
Players can choose to play as any of the 8 different nations - British, Chinese, French, German, Greek, Japanese, Korean or Roman; and advance through 16 ages from Dawn Age to Automation Age, expanding the base in each age.
There is also a single player campaign where players practice strategies by battling in a historical perspective. DomiNations introduced World War on December 2, 2015.
