Games like ck3

[arrivederci8]

Hi
I love to play ck2 and ck3 and eu4, vic2 etc as achiviment runner, but i am not in the mood for grand strategy.
I am looking for a game that have an achievement list like these games have, that are fun challeging and rewarding to achieve (hahaha)
Can someone advise me some games that are this kind of achievements, it doesn´t need to be strategy, can be anything; but tactics and strategy and rpg are optimal

I enjoy the sim 'Real Life' mostly. Quite challenging, but achievements gained from each rival dispossessed and crushed underfoot in my relentless drive towards World Domination. Remember to VOTE SPUTNIK!

The Sims? People compare CK a lot to it lol
No Steam achievements I don't thinkkkk, but might be achievements on the EA platform?

Knights of Honor. less about the life and more about the warfare and the trade goods.

Try Ozymandias. It's a strategy game in the same vein as CK3 or Civilization, but it's more arcade style with faster, shorter games that don't take weeks to play.

Well, since you mentioned tactical games.

it's more like a turn based M&B, but it's quite nice.

The closest games you'd find in terms of achievements are obviously going to be the other Paradox games.

Even though its CKesque I would still recommend Knights of honour 2

The Guild (1 2 or 3. 2 is the most popular), if you like the aspect of family politicking and climbing ladders, infighting, dirty tricks, backstabbing and establishing a dynasty. It's got it's share of jank in 1 and 2 (especially without fan patches) but the jank combined with ambition kind of gave it much of the fun.

Just like in CK 2/3 where you can look at it from a POV that you're roleplaying a ruler, The Guild leans more heavily into that as it dispenses with the map painting and grand strategy (although the series has some small scale stuff with businesses, hostile take overs, thieves, assassins and thugs). It's very satisfying to stuff the right niches in society, business and politics with your friends and family so you can now change laws or get away with crimes as people in judgement just love you so much (or you killed off all the people who were needed for the court case to happen...).
