Description

The best board game ever made is moving from its classic tabletop setting to the PC platform, courtesy of developer Paradox Interactive. Set in Europe in the early 20th century, Diplomacy is about the power struggles and political relationships between seven nations. Its abstracted and simple game play puts the focus on the need for shrewd negotiations and overall strategy. Paradox Interactive’s computerized version of Diplomacy will be a careful adaptation that maintains the fundamental rules of the board game. The computer game will follow its philosophy of being easy to learn but hard to master.
