Age of Respair is a new medieval strategy game that combines real-time strategy (RTS) and city-building elements, taking inspiration from the original Stronghold series. Designed to immerse players in the complexities of medieval kingdom management,the game offers both a modern approach to castle-building and large-scale siege warfare, blending classic gameplay with fresh innovations in a massive, detailed world.
With sprawling lands to explore and defend, you can marshal large armies, preparing for equally enormous sieges against enemy strongholds. At the heart of Age of Respair is siege warfare. You will build and fortify your castles, set up defenses against enemy assaults while planning your own attacks on rival fortresses.
Success hinges on efficient resource management. Gathering essential materials like wood, stone, and food is only the beginning. You must also oversee complex production chains to keep their kingdom running smoothly and to sustain their armies in long battles. Whether it’s managing the farm to bakery supply line or ensuring the iron mine supplies enough for weapon production, every step affects the kingdom’s strength.
For those who enjoy storyline-driven gameplay, Age of Respair offers a campaign mode filled with engaging narrative and challenging missions. Additionally, you can test your skills in skirmish mode, setting up battles against AI opponents to perfect their strategies before heading into the campaign.
You can find Age of Respair on Steam.
