The year is 1268, the English throne lies empty, and power-hungry lords are ready to wage war for newfound power. Your people now look to you to lead them to glory and prosperity. Manage your lands, strike bargains, betray alliances and ultimately destroy your rivals in this classic combination of turn-based and real-time strategy, and become the undisputed Lord of the realm!
You begin as the ruler of a small county, but lead wisely and keep your people secure and thriving, and soon you’ll broaden your horizons.
Manage your farms, make trade negotiations, build castles, flatter and deceive your opponents and then march your armies into the lands of your rival nobles. Unify the land under your rule, and prove you have what it takes to be King.
Took 7 hours to actually figure out this point and click game. It becomes fun and addicting once you do figure it out. The most confusing part is the world map on opening. Those side buttons are actually just toggles for map icons and not important. The color you chose on your crest is your flag color and you only get one piece of land at the start....
There's a reason it was only 69 cents (before taxes). Just go play Medieval 2 Total War instead and mod it and thank me later. This was the Boomer's version of Total War before good games were invented.
