  • Diplomats are capable of turning even your greatest enemies into trustworthy friends. Use them to create strong defensive and offensive pacts, negotiate marriages, and make sure that your friends have your back in times of need

Bit of fun for around 20 hours. Absolutely feels like a slightly upgraded mobile game and is certainly not worth the price given the lack of depth in the mechanics. Buy it on sale if you have to, but don't expect to feel satisfied with your purchase.

Great game, it has some stuff that needs to be fixed but overall a great game, something that can be better than Crusader Kings 2 or 3 given time. Hopefully, they improve diplomacy so you don't have to guess and rely on luck when dealing with other kingdoms. For example, if you want to sell a province, there's no direct way to sell it (trade land for money), so you just have to demand gold with the other kingdom and hope they counteroffer with demanding the land you want. Aside from the problems with the diplomacy, there's not that much else, maybe the realism with your councilors not aging, but that's almost insignificant to matter. Overall, still a great game.

It took me a little while to get a good grasp of the various mechanics in the game, like all Grand Strategy games it's a bit daunting at first but once "you get it" it's very entertaining. After watching a few YouTube videos and playing a few "practice games" to learn the ropes it has now become one of my favourite games. It's kind of a Crusader Kings/Total War combo type of game that is challenging and can give you hours of fun. As starting resources/settlements are randomised, no 2 games are ever alike. I highly recommend this game if you're willing to spend a bit of time learning the ropes.
