Still needs more development, but pretty fun to play. If you are searching for Mount and Blade with Kingdom Management Elements this one is for you.

For a role playing and building game, Empires and Tribes is great.-- once you get through the frustration of figuring it out with lots of trial and error.

Granted I've only played less than 2 hours but the game already feels incomplete, it should be labeled as 'Early Access' Villagers will just walk around in circles which just looks silly, AI definitely needs work (in more ways than just that). Tutorial doesn't cover things it should, like my first play through I froze to death when winter came, I didn't have the ability to make warmer clothes yet, must be a way to survive this (stay inside all winter?). Map view needs tooltips or something so you can use to tell what each building is, I found it to be useless as the building view is much better , at least you can see what each building is as well as make upgrades, assign villagers, etc. I could list more but I'm not going to bother but just know that the game still needs work done to it. I gave it a thumbs up cause it is a good looking game and I like the idea that the Devs were going for. I just hope the Devs don't abandon it already.
