Space strategy game Star Dynasties is launching its first DLC, Bloodlines, TODAY March 9th for Windows PC via Steam.
From publisher Iceberg Interactive (Strange Horticulture) and developer Pawley Games, Star Dynasties is a turn based, procedurally generated narrative of human drama and personal politics, mixed with a light empire management layer.
In Bloodlines, you will explore enriched and expanded gameplay with family-driven events, features, and bonuses. Develop your dynasty as you see fit and secure a legacy to outlast generations. Never before has the goal of Star Dynasties been more clear: survive and endure.
Waypoint Radio/Vice remarked that "Star Dynasties understands that even during war, a good space opera cares more about political intrigue and less about who has bigger ships.”
ScreenRant believes “Forcing characters into dishonorable acts based on your scheming is an amazing feeling and really evokes Dune's political intrigue.”

Design Your Starting Family
With the new Family Designer feature, you have much more control over your initial family. Customise each character’s age and appearance, as well as your family’s size. Do you want to begin with a troop of children, or none at all? You can even start from an empty house, for an extra challenge.
Control Who Inherits
New succession models have been added, giving players more options and control over who will rise to power within the dynasty. Wield the ability to disinherit family members and appoint new heirs wisely, to keep everyone in line. And when you’re tired of ruling, abdicate and let your heirs handle the mess.
Family Drama
Experience new family-driven events, from childhood rivalries to squabbles over inheritance. In addition, new expedition events will provide the chance to attain historically significant bonuses to your dynasty.
