Court of Ashes
With your king assassinated, and the country in the midst of a war, experience the events that unfurl as one of the five royal advisers now thrust together to create a collective governing council. Manage your resources and allocate them prudently to turn the tides of battle in your favor. Cultivate relationships with your other council members to convince them to support your choices. Filled with narrative-driven interactions and branching choices, Court of Ashes is a turn-based strategy game where you must learn to rule before there is nothing left to rule over.

I just realized this game doesn't have nearly as many reviews as it should? I loved the worldbuilding, gameplay, artwork, and all the character options in this kingdom sim. I think I've played as all the characters now except the general. Really nice game, can't believe it's free!

Fun, short, but not very repeatable. Yes their are different leaders but the story is always the same and so are the options. Once you know the right choice, you can win with every character easily.
