Probably not the most complicated kingdom management game, it plays more like a point-and-click adventure, but that simplicity lets you focus on the better parts of the game: the story, the characters and your own take on what kind of king you are. Long story short: you are a soon-to-be-officially-crowned king who needs to get to his coronation without being killed, overthrown, betrayed or otherwise. You got around a year, good luck. Getting through my first few attempts was a slog: death after death after death. As soon as I've given up and turned down the difficulty I started to enjoy the game way more — and the story was very enjoyable. At first it seemed quite basic: just keep everyone more-or-less happy, avoid dangerous activities, choose options that seem logical and will lead to the best outcome. All that is basic, but the game really starts to shine when you realize you get to see through not just your own life, but the lives of your many subordinates. Is the priest corrupt or is he a necessary evil? Is your main general a seasoned veteran to rely on or is he a bloodthirsty maniac? Is that random encounter bard a useless headache-inducing jukebox or will he become the secret key to winning the race for the crown? In short, the stories (and the story overarching them) in this game are great and are a pleasure to uncover. Can recommend to those who like the topic of court politics and royal adventuring. Follow your gut and try to find out whether you got what it takes to be King

This game is an interactive visual novel with a political theme. In other words, a competitor to the much more popular game "Suzerain". I wish there was an option to leave a mixed review. Because, while some parts of Succession of Changing Kings are brilliant, and the potential is amazing, it feels very unfinished. And I don't mean that only part 1 out of 4 is currently available - more parts will be coming soon. I mean it lacks some essential quality-of-life features. Listing what I would like to be implemented, in no particular order: - The ability to zoom-in on the map, and a choice of font sizes. I play on a high-resolution laptop monitor, which makes everything look a bit small. - The option to be a queen as well as a king. I've no idea why that wasn't implemented from the start. - The game is all about trying to juggle your reputation with the 4 factions: Commoners, Nobles, Military and Priests. However, in order to see what your reputation actually is, you need to Hire an informant - first spend initiative (currency) hiring him, and then spend 1 point of initiative every few turns for upkeep. This makes about as much sense as paying for the upkeep of a cooker in a game about running a restaurant! Especially as low reputation with any faction results in death! I suggest ditching the informant and making reputations permanently visible from the start, so that the first few turns don't turn into a memory exercise. - Talking of reputation, the default value is 5, the maximum is 10. Going above 6 increases your chance of a positive "booster" event for this particular faction, while going below 4 increases your chance of a negative event and, potentially, death. My question is: Why did I need to read a Steam guide to find this out? There should be a tutorial! - The total length of the game is going to be 444 days. I have played 50 so far. Still don't know why the Tavern is even there... Now for the positives: - Quite a lot of content already. - The writing is Brilliant! Serious enough to make you feel like your responsibilities matter; light-hearted enough to not be tedious (unlike "Suzerain"s); and the story has enough characters to feel like you are running a country, rather than a fairytale village. - A good selection of possible solutions for every quest, none of which are too obvious. And one of the options is always "Do nothing". - Clear interface that is easy to use. TLDR: A very good game, and I recommend it, as long as you don't mind an unfinished product

This is a decision-making simulator where you play as a king. Most of the time, you’ll be reading text (I wasn’t a fan of the voice acting, so I turned it off) and making choices. Your decisions impact faction relations and open up or close off future consequences. You can also construct buildings and recruit people — this grants various bonuses and unlocks new quests and tasks. The game’s got a well-written storyline with plenty of intrigue. Characters feel distinct, the writing is solid, and it’s genuinely enjoyable to read. I mostly liked the game and had a good time with it, though I initially expected something closer to CK3. It’s nothing like CK3, it’s more in line with Reigns.

Oooh long time I have not seen games of this kind that are similar to Reigns, only here more invested in visualization to complete the picture of the government, yes not so well worked out but it does not make the game worse, I was satisfied.
