Grand Ages: Medieval

I’ve seen a lot of split reviews about this game, and I don’t think the game is as simple as most people describe.
Personally, I enjoy the game. It’s a game I’ve come back to quite a few times and always enjoy it when I do play. I’ve seen a lot of people say it’s repetitive with the system of building new cities and trading and repeating a few times. But I don’t think most of the people who play give it enough time to progress your empire and build things like an army or your skill tree, build towns bigger with more fortifications, build better roads, defence towers, and go to war and take over other cities.
The game is hard at first, and I understand that. I found it challenging to make money at first, and I would want to upgrade a town to its full potential too quickly, which drained the money too quickly. You have to go slow, understand, and tactically build towns with certain resources and products to increase your money flow. Every option for your town and army has a use, and to know that, you’ll need to read and play with these tools to help yourself. One thing I think this game does really well is how you control the game speed. You have options for how fast the game will go without pressing anything, or you can press the space button, and it’ll speed up by x10, which is super helpful for when you want a trader to go quicker or your army.
I see a lot of people saying the graphics aren’t great, but what do you expect for an 11-year-old game that hasn’t been updated in years? I don’t think they are the worst graphics either; it’s just because people are so used to modern graphics and have these high expectations of realistic visuals in games.
I will say the fighting and taking over of towns does take a long time and is quite annoying how long it takes for you to take the cities and how to strategically affect other kingdoms.
Overall, I’d say this game is great. It’s for somebody who can read and learn from their experiences and tips they are giving you. It’s satisfying to expand your kingdom and trade with other kingdoms or just take them over. And exploring the map with the scout is fun; seeing the real-life places and geography is fun.

This is a solid game, which I still come back to. Great economy and empire expansion playability. Would love if more games leaned into those features.

how do you get the 2 additional contents camelot/etc from the main menu? it says off and will not turn on. i go to shop but it says absolutely nothing about dlc anywhere???

Great game!!

Good fun
