Games Like Flight South: Northern Expedition

One-line pitch

In 317 CE, the Western Jin has fallen and the northern elite flee south. Found a rising clan in Jiangnan, build its estate, govern the provinces, navigate the Eastern Jin court, and decide what your house will risk for survival and restoration.

Short description

A clan-management and grand-strategy game set during the founding years of the Eastern Jin. Establish your house, settle your people, manage its manor, govern local territory, navigate court politics, and face Zu Ti's expedition and Wang Dun's rebellion.

About the game

Reaching Jiankang does not end the exile. Your people need land and security, your manor needs labour and supplies, and every position you take at court reshapes your relationship with the great clans, imperial authority, and the provinces.

Your story begins in the spring of 317 CE as the head of a rising clan. Choose your family's character, background, political ties, and starting identity, then manage scarce resources as history advances by quarter. Grain, cloth, population, prestige, and political credit are connected. A decision that solves today's crisis may define your house years later.

The game remains in active development. Current content covers 317–324 CE, and systems, balance, text, and presentation may continue to change.
