What is Manor Lords?

This single-player, early-access strategy simulation centers on building medieval settlements inspired by late 14th-century Franconia.

  • +you like city building mixed with military expansion

Not for you if...

  • −you want a finished city builder with broad late-game content
  • −you prefer combat to be the main strategic focus
  • −you dislike managing multiple settlements and production chains
