What is DoH Science

DoH Science is a project to investigate the underlying rules that govern an online multiplayer game called Domain of Heroes.

Domain of Heroes is an strange AFK game that I've been playing on and off for years. I find a lot of the design decisions and rules governing the game play interesting and illustrative of many good game design points.

So I'm going to try to dissect these rules to determine how the game works under the covers, and then talk about how these rules may apply to game design in general.

Note: I'm not a developer on Domain of Heroes, so all info I obtain will be from the public interface of the game, hopefully through analyzing masses of collected data.
