Life Or Death - Complete Game Description

Life Or Death is a medieval kingdom decision-making game developed by happystoner5420 Productions. Built as an Electron application, this immersive experience puts players in the role of a monarch who must judge subjects brought before them, with each decision carrying profound consequences for the kingdom's fate.

Game Overview

Players rule a medieval kingdom starting with 50,000 subjects, 1,000 gold pieces, and 50% happiness. Each turn, subjects are brought before the throne with various crimes and accusations. The player must decide whether to spare their life, sentence them to death, or accept bribes - choices that directly impact the kingdom's population, treasury, and public happiness.

Core Gameplay Mechanics

Decision System

  • Spare Life: Shows mercy but may decrease happiness if the crime was severe
  • Sentence to Death: Provides justice but can reduce happiness for minor crimes
  • Accept Bribe: Increases gold but significantly reduces happiness due to corruption

Execution Methods

When choosing death, players select from eight historically-inspired execution methods:

  • Guillotine
  • Hanging
  • Den of Lions
  • The Stocks
  • Burning at Stake
  • Drawing & Quartering
  • Iron Maiden
  • The Wheel

Victory Conditions

  • Golden Age: Achieve 100% happiness - the kingdom enters prosperity
  • Reign Concluded: Judge all subjects (population reaches 0)
  • Defeat: Happiness drops to 0% - the people riot and overthrow the ruler
