Tribe Domination Launches Today for Mobile

French entrepreneur Alexandre Delbarre has announced that Tribe Domination has launched on iOS and Android devices.

Tribe Domination is a Risk-like digital board game that pits San Francisco’s three main tribes — Hippies, Geeks, and Hipsters — against each other in heated battles for the city’s iconic neighborhoods. Eventually, more territories will open up in cities across the US — starting with New York later this year.

Tribe Domination Gameplay: Tumbling Dice

Gather your troops and challenge up to two friends online as you invade and defend adjacent territories. Plan strategic attacks by placing troops at the start of each turn — but be careful not to leave your own territories undefended: Counter-attacks are a thing in Tribe Domination, so make sure to reinforce weaker areas by moving troops through connected territories.

The more territories you control, the more reinforcements you receive; claim ownership of an entire county to earn bonus troops. Knowing where and when to place your tribe’s soldiers is critical if you want to conquer San Francisco.

Each territory you conquer will give you coins that can unlock hidden perks. Surprise your opponents by buying reinforcements or unleash your tribe’s special ability. If you’re in control of your tribe’s HQ, a special frisbee power-up will let you perform a ranged attack!

SPECIAL ABILITIES

  • Hippies can use their Flower Power Teleportation to instantly transport their troops to any other territory they control
  • Hipsters can throw their U-Locks and attack a territory that is two spaces away
  • Geeks can unleash Furtive Hack that hides their troop numbers to the opposing tribes.

DEVELOPER QUOTE

Alexandre Delbarre,

“I’m a huge fan of classic board games such as chess and Risk, but I also love strategy video games like StarCraft. Tribe Domination merges both, and it’s something that everyone can enjoy. More than a bare bones digital board game, Tribe Domination was intended from the start to fit the mobile lifestyle — with asynchronous multiplayer and the ability to join several games at the same time. See you on the battlefield!”

Tribe Domination Key Features:

  • Enjoy a turn-based strategy game built from the ground up for mobile devices
  • Make use of each tribe’s special ability to conquer San Francisco:
    • Geeks = Furtive Hack
    • Hippies = Flower Power Teleportation
    • Hipsters = U-Lock Attack
  • Log in with Facebook and play with your friends
  • Challenge your friends for the best score on the leaderboard
  • Own your headquarters to unlock a frisbee that will help you engineer remote attacks

Tribe Domination can be downloaded for free from the App Store and Google Play. The game doesn’t include any ads or in-app purchases.
