Rising Lords: Prologue

You can finally experience the beginning of our Story Campaign! Take the role of the young Tankred of Tannheim and take your first steps in the world of Aubelin. This was a big step towards the fully-featured campaign which will continue to be updated during the Early Access phase! The new campaign also comes with a completely new and improved tutorial that should help especially new players to learn the ins and outs of Rising Lords' systems. Please let us know what you think!

More Quality-of-Life improvements

Thanks to your amazing feedback, we were able to improve the general Quality-of-Life for Rising Lords even further! For example, you can now distribute and manage your peasants with a single mouse button, though for existing players we left the option to use the old left/right mouse button controls. Additionally it should now be much easier to notice when workplaces are occupied and you can finally demolish buildings! Oh! And your town center might look a bit more christmas-y than before - it's that time of the year after all And that's not all! See the full changelog below for everything we added, fixed and improved for this update! Don't forget: if you'd like to join the community and hang out with us, make sure to check out our Discord. Thank you!

Rising Lords is a medieval turn-based strategy game with card and board game elements. Send your serfs to fight and die in your name... or let them prosper, and use them to your advantage!

Collect taxes and resources. Dictate rations and field work. Forge weapons, reshape the battlefield, raise armies, and build mighty fortified cities. Help your people become knights, or dump them on a battlefield far away, but be careful: even the most humble peasants will revolt eventually…

In addition to its campaign mode, Rising Lords features robust multiplayer functionality. Play a quick game, or settle in for an evening or more. Play mind games with your friends with Rising Lords’ special figures and spread false infos. Let them pay for their insolence in questioning your right to rule!
