In any strategy game and city builder, there is a level of disconnect between the player and their virtual populace. From a commanding top-down view, you carefully design and manufacture a flourishing little civilization, but the intricacies and the daily lives of your townspeople constantly remain a mystery. Likewise, in RPGs, you're often the chosen one, saving the world solo thanks to your unique magical powers and superlative martial prowess. With Frostpunk 2 and Manor Lords, two of the most anticipated new games of 2024, on the horizon, another, less-known medieval game is putting a unique spin on a bold combination of genres. Coming soon to Steam Early Access, the game's director speaks with PCGamesN at GDC in San Francisco, and shares some exclusive new images of what could be this year's PC sleeper hit.
