July 2025
Underrated game. Once you get through an hour or 2 of confusing play, it really smooths out and becomes fun. The game explains about the same amount as paradox games do, but doesn't have the added wiki and forums that come with a big game. That leads to a fair number of situations where there are unknowns, but I can't really blame the game for it. If it had 2-3x the in-game documentation it has, I think it'd have been really popular. The battle/social minigames are pretty fun and have a fair amount of skill cap, making there still things to learn a few tens of hours in. The game is really immersive, significantly moreso than most 4x games I've played. 2 main complaints: the victory conditions seem half-baked, and it's fairly easy to be over- or under-powered for a situation. Neither of those interferes with having a fun game, really. Definitely worth checking out, especially on sale.

Great Houses of Calderia is an ambitious feudal grand strategy game that immerses players in the intricate dynamics of noble families vying for power in the mythical province of Calderia. Combining elements of resource management, tactical combat, and deep character interactions, the game offers a rich tapestry of political intrigue and familial drama. At its core, the game revolves around managing your noble house's affairs. Key features include: -Family Management: Players oversee various family members, each with unique traits and aspirations. Assigning tasks based on their abilities and personalities is crucial for maintaining harmony and efficiency within the house. -Diplomacy and Intrigue: Engage in complex diplomatic relations with other houses. Form alliances, arrange marriages, and navigate the delicate balance of power. Intrigue plays a significant role, with options to spy, spread propaganda, or sabotage rivals. -Conflict Resolution: Battles are resolved through a real-time tactical resource management system, adding a layer of strategic depth to military engagements. -Economic Strategy: Manage resources wisely to fund wars, trade, and development. Establishing commercial relations is vital for economic growth and sustaining your house's influence. The game is set in a richly detailed world inspired by Renaissance Europe, featuring a Mediterranean aesthetic. Players can shape their house's traditions, values, and goals, leading to diverse narratives with each playthrough. The inclusion of modding tools allows the community to create and share unique stories, further enhancing replayability. Pros: -Deep character and family management systems -Rich diplomatic and intrigue mechanics -Unique real-time tactical combat system -Modding support for community-driven content -Detailed world-building with a Renaissance-inspired setting Cons: -Steep learning curve for new players -Some UI and control issues -Limited replayability due to similar faction dynamics -Occasional performance and optimization concerns Great Houses of Calderia offers a unique blend of strategy, role-playing, and storytelling. While it may not surpass giants like Crusader Kings III in scope, it provides a fresh perspective on feudal politics and family dynamics. For players seeking a game that emphasizes character-driven narratives and strategic depth, Great Houses of Calderia is worth exploring. Rating: 6/10

A quite detailed family dynasty game. (+) Thorough economic and production building and manpower options and management (+) Quite detailed family management (marriage, management, even attracting other family members through marriage) (+) Social battle /debate through companions role --> first time experience this (-) Simplified real battle simulation, its the same with the social battle / debate but with soldiers type which opened by new buildings added through building management --> i wish this could be improved later on.. to at least displaying detailed units like standard battle??

Honestly there are many similarities between this and CKIII. However, the style, the game-play and most of its features are just different enough for it to be unique and a more laid back experience. And the family management system is much better so I don't have to murder/disinherit my children so that my firstborn doesn't have to endure the consequences of our fiefdom fracturing because of my characters weak pullout game. 8/10.

Got the game on sale. It was very fun while it lasted, but this is a one and done game. After one play through, you will have seen enough and know all the tricks such that everything will become tedious the second time around. Would have liked options to extend the game longer as opposed to being herded by set game events.
