Dark Lord Manager 2012 by TakeNapEveryday
Increase your power, fame and wealth by prioritizing your evil tasks. Don't let the hero distract you! Once the hero has grown powerful and famous himself, crush him to destroy the hopes of the population that they could ever escape from under your growing shadow!

@ripter: Unfortunately I ran out of time and didn't have a chance to add balance or progression to the gameplay, so it turned out more like a prototype with completely random events.
Great entry, thumbs up from me :)
rather interesting to read through the activities though
Great concept!
It's easier to win by 'crushing' the hero as soon as you have more power and fame than him - as time passes you are less likely to keep up with the growth of the hero. The amount of stats you gather and how much greater they are than the hero effect how many years you maintain your rule of the kingdom afterwards on the score screen.
I wanted to have a bit more interaction and a longer task list with a smooth drag and drop interface, but I didn't manage my real-life tasks well!
