Manor Lords is a medieval strategy game that combines a strategic layer (village/city building) with spectacular tactical battles in real time.
The creation of this game was made possible by an independent Polish developer, Grzegorz Styczen, operating under the banner of Slavic Magic, for whom this is a debut project. He comes from the Polish city Elblag and started creating Manor Lords in 2017. He relied on subcontractors during production, but he did most of the work himself.
The game is not set in any specific age or place, but is inspired by historical realities - feudal Europe from the 11th to the 15th century.
In Manor Lords we usually observe the action from above, but the player has control over the camera - we can zoom in or out to look at individual buildings or observe the battlefield from a slightly different perspective. There is also an option to traverse the virtual world as a character in a TPP view.
The gameplay can be divided into two main parts - economic and tactical. In the first layer, we build and develop our own medieval village, which over time turns into a city.
We decide what buildings we will build (each of them has its own purpose), and we also have full freedom as to where they will be located - in Manor Lords we do not build based on any grid, each property can be rotated and positioned as we wish. The game attaches importance to realism, so it is worth taking into the terrain and connection to roads. The game features a season system and variable weather. Players will need to deal with famine, wars and plagues.
The second main part of the game are tactical battles resembling what we know from Total War – we have a number of different units at our disposal, such as archers and light or heavy infantry. We can do things like set unit formations and give orders to troops fighting our battles.
In Manor Lords only singleplayer is ed. There is no cooperation or competitive multiplayer mode.
Manor Lords was created based on Unreal Engine technology. It offers high quality three-dimensional graphics. The game is distinguished by a high level of realism and detail for a strategy title.
Since its release in Early Access, Manor Lords has been updated regularly. The author of the game introduces many new things based on player .
Manor Lords has been included in the PC Game (and Xbox Game Ultimate) subscription since the launch of early access.

Game Ratings for Manor Lords Video Game.
GamingBolt: 7 / 10 by Ravi Sinha
Manor Lords still requires time to develop, especially when building out several of its more intriguing features. Nevertheless, its emphasis on medieval city-building with dashes of combat can prove enjoyable.
IGN: 7 / 10 by Leana Hafer
Manor Lords is a gorgeous medieval city-builder that kept me occupied for hours building my perfect, cozy hamlets, but it definitely feels very early in its Early Access development.
Rectify Gaming: 9 / 10
Manor Lords stands as a shining example of the potential within indie game development that puts many triple A projects to shame. Keep in mind that it’s still in Early Access too, meaning the game will only get better from here on out. It’s an experience that respects its roots in history while providing a platform for strategic creativity. I’ve never been so immersed into a game about building cities and commanding troops, but being the lord of my manor allows me to weave my own stories of medieval life.
