Dominion of Darkness is a strategy/RPG text game (there are some 2D illustrations) in which the player takes on the role of a Sauron-style Lord of Darkness with the goal of conquering the world. He will carry out his plans by making various decisions. He will build his army and send it into battles, weave intrigues and deceptions, create secret spy networks and sectarian cults, recruit agents and commanders, corrupt representatives of Free Peoples and sow discord among them, collect magical artifacts and perform sinister plots.
(Formerly known as Malefactor.)

If this were any other game, you would be the bad guy
As interactive fiction goes, Dominion of Darkness falls much closer to the "game" than the "book" end of the spectrum; if you don't enjoy management-type games, it's probably not your cup of tea. That being said, it tells a pretty good story. I enjoyed learning more about the cultures of the various fantasy races, taking advantage of new discoveries and technology, making allies of characters that were useful to me, and showing my enemies no mercy.
