Early Access Review
If you liked Tavern Master from the same developer, you'd like this game. The feel of the game is very similar, but they have different game mechanics of course.

The game is addictive especially in the beginning. There are lots of things to do - which would be the fast growing phase of your business. Then later, you do more observation, trying to find bottlenecks of your supply chain and address that part. Overall, I'd recommend this game.

There are lot of things to improve, there are small, quality of life kind of improvements. I'll just list here in case devs want some feedback:
- I'd like to be able to assign specific items for blacksmiths to craft. You can only specify things like "metal items first", or "most complex first". However, more fine tuning would be nice, especially to achieve time-limited orders.
- Leveling up all blacksmiths is sometimes too grind-y when you have many blacksmiths. They can auto-level up, but then, the game might allocate unnecessary skills to blacksmiths (design skills to crafters, or vise versa).
- I couldn't find an overview of how many resources I have for each ingredient. I.e: you have iron ingots laying around many places, but you need to check them individually. Before agreeing an order, I'd like to see if I have enough resources.
- Assistants can only carry a specific item (one type of ingot, or one type of resource from warehouse). Not sure if that makes sense. Maybe they can be grouped like iron related stuff (iron/steel ingot etc).
- Staff management window is not easy to use when your business grows and you have many assistants, blacksmiths etc. Very big frame for a single worker. I'd like to be able to group my blacksmiths so I assign group tasks, rather than changing their priority individually.
- There can be orders from kings or high level lords, a similar mechanic they had in Tavern Master. They kind of have a time-limit order that pays more but as I said it before, it is hard to do that when you cannot ask all your blacksmiths to work on that order.

Very addictive game, especially if you love medieval theme. There is always lots of things to do, until you reach to the end of the game (well, there is no end, but at some point you pretty much finish everything you can do in the game). Worth 15 bucks.

I played Max Payne 1 and 2 when I was a kid. I got the same taste with this game. You should definitely buy this if you loved those games.

Nothing much to say. If you liked Half Life, you should definitely play this game. Xen is redesigned completely and it is much better and longer. I did experienced some optimization problems though. Usually I have above 100 fps but sometimes it drops to 15-20 which is annoying.

This game is unique by being pure medieval and not contain any elements of magic. Gameplay is very good. Graphics are very old by its time but is won't take entertainment of game. You try to survive in the world, build an army, strengthen your economy, take castles and cities. However after achieveing all of these, you feel empty, aimless. I mean, you joined a faction(or start your kingdom) and conquer all cities and castles, but then what. I think this is where game ends.

It is a legendary game with its gameplay, graphics and huge game content - which would be unlimited if you consider other user mods. Skill system is very easy and not overwhelming like in previous game Oblivion. Combat system is playful enough, but not the best. And lastly the game world is very huge. There are so many dungeons, castles, villages, mines to discover. And i feel the difference between all of these places, they are not same places. You don't feel like these places autogenerated by some sort of tool like previous games.
