Step into the shadowy throne of evil in "As Expected of the Demon Lord," a thrilling free online strategy game that puts you in command of your very own dungeon empire. Inspired by the indie classic Sort the Court, this work-in-progress gem captures the addictive pulse of kingdom management and infuses it with a dark, tongue-in-cheek charm. As the Demon Lord, every day brings a parade of quirky minions, each with their own demands, alliances, and agendas. With a simple Yes or No, shape the destiny of your domain — for every decree sways critical stats like Minion Count, Loyalty, Karma, and Gold. Will you be a benevolent underworld overlord, or rule with an iron (and occasionally snarky) fist?

The game's accessible HTML5 design means you can dive right in from any browser or mobile device — no downloads needed! Stellar pixel art, crafted in GIMP and brought to life in Godot, immerses you in an atmospheric dungeon bustling with goblins, imps, and mysterious wanderers. Each encounter is lovingly animated, with expressive dialogue and unexpected twists, ensuring no two rulings are ever the same. Strategy is king: balance your resources and weigh risks against rewards as you react to surprise events, manage your minion's morale, and optimize your dungeon’s prosperity.

Whether you’re a veteran fan of quirky simulation games or newly addicted to management sims, "As Expected of the Demon Lord" offers endless replayability with constantly evolving choices, procedurally generated dilemmas, and a stream of future content shaped by its passionate indie developer. Will you amass legendary loot or descend into chaos? Only your decisions will tell. Play for free now and prove that you have what it takes to rule the underworld — as expected of the Demon Lord!
