Elevator Pitch
Ars Infernum is a dark narrative RPG built on Solomonic demonology. The player embodies Igniferus - a former priest transformed into a holy hell-hound - as he descends into Hell to study, bind, and command the 72 demons of the Ars Goetia. Hell is not a battlefield. It is a living grimoire.
Identity Statement
The player is closer to a warlock scholar than a traditional hero. Every demon is a case study in infernal scholarship. Every binding is a legal act, not a kill. The Infernal Academy grows as the player masters the arcane bureaucracy of Hell.
Genre & Platform
- Dark narrative RPG with turn-based combat
- Browser-based web application (Laravel + Inertia.js + Vue 3)
- Optimized for desktop and mobile
- Single-player, persistent campaign
Release Structure
- 6 Acts total, 12 demons per Act = 72 demons (full Ars Goetia)
- Act 1 = V1 release (MVP)
- Each subsequent Act released as a version update
- Act 1 is self-contained with a satisfying arc; subsequent Acts deepen the world
