City States: Medieval
Steam
Powers divide the continent, growing in power and wealth, city-states rise to prominence through mastery of commerce and trade. These mighty merchant republics rise above their peers from Tripoli to Granada and from Novgorod to Genoa. You are the leader of one of these republics and you will shape the history of one such city-state, bringing it to glory and power - or watch it disappear into the currents of history.
City States: Medieval is a bold continuation of Reverie World Studios' long-standing strategy series, introducing completely new mechanics focused not on continent-spanning empires, but surviving between them as a city-state. The dynamic, unpredictable 12th century Europe and Middle East offers new challenges, while the completely new hero mechanics demand a completely fresh approach to strategy from newcomers and veterans alike.

The city is the heart of your mercantile empire. Plan your expansion and advance accordingly, growing your city through economy, military, faith, trading, and building chains. Do not neglect defense: You are leading a city-state surrounded by powerful kingdoms, who may decide to plunder the city's wealth. Fortifications will be key to defending your city, along with an all-new siege system combining real-time tactical combat with tower defense mechanics.

Trade is the key to the city's survival. Establish new trading outposts across the known world to gain access to twelve precious commodities, from wool and linen to spices and silk. With every trade route the opportunities expand, bringing with it more wealth and prominence. Each route also makes the city a more attractive target for rival powers, demanding a strategic approach and navigating the treacherous world of politics and warfare of medieval times.

In the age of great men shaping history, your leader is no different. Growing in experience and skill alongside the city, they define how you can react, enabling real-time battles and defense of the city, boosting city growth and construction, or carrying out complex intrigues in foreign courts. Every decision is a calculated risk: Do you send him on expeditions to distant lands to find new markets, leaving the city more vulnerable? Or do you focus on strengthening the home, risking that opportunities will slip away?
