About the Game

Lux Delux is a fast-paced turn-based-strategy game inspired by the classic board game RISK, with so much more!

  • Take over the world in 10 minutes!
  • Cross-platform online multi-player with rankings league! Our online champions want more fresh meat.
  • Conquer over 900 different maps: Historical, geometric, fantasy, every US state!
  • Biohazard mode nukes out different countries on the maps each game!
  • Diverse map generator plugins including CastleInfinity.
  • Create your own maps with the built-in Map Editor.
  • Includes the 2 DLC expansion campaigns of American History Lux and Ancient Empires Lux!
  • Challenging AI will slap you around (no joke).
  • Programmers can create new AIs using the open-source LuxAgent SDK.
  • Hot-keys galore enable you to run an entire map in under 30 seconds! If you have a fast mouse-hand and enough armies, that is.

Lux Delux is an indie game cult classic, created by players, for players, and growing organically for over a decade now.

Because taking over the world is fun!
