Survival

First Feudal's draw is in its brutally honest medieval survival sim gameplay. Building and maintaining a village's infrastructure while managing the needs of its inhabitants and fending off bandits is a constant struggle. The game's emphasis on resource management and the trickle-down effects of your decisions, like a failing harvest leading to starvation and societal collapse, create a tense atmosphere that keeps you on the edge of your seat.

About First Feudal

Details
Become a real medieval feudal lord: start with a small village and build it up into a great impenetrable castle. You will have to repel enemy raids: hide behind thick walls, lure your enemies into strategically placed traps and even lead your loyal peasants into the battlefield. You start the game with a couple of peasants and limited resources to eventually turn your small settlement into a real medieval castle. Build, mine resources, grow crops, manufacture equipment, trade, and advance science on your own or by delegating tasks to your people. Greedy bandits will regularly raid your settlement, making you gather militia troops and repel the enemy.
