20 Recent Indies That Put AAA To Shame
9. Manor Lords Goes Medieval On City Builders
As far as city builders and other similar types of sim games go, AAA releases are pretty much at a steady decline. Not only did the genre's staple, SimCity, die off in disgrace years ago, but even the new hope for the genre, Cities: Skylines, has received a mixed reception for its sequel.
With this in mind, a lot of city builder enthusiasts have turned to indie developers for their kicks, and honestly, you can’t get any better than Manor Lords!
Manor Lords is a unique spin on the city builder genre developed by Slavic Magic that allows you to build your own medieval cities. It blends elements of town management with real-time strategy, offering a one-of-a-kind experience with great attention to detail and polished mechanics.
Fans of games like Cities: Skylines will have a great time with the game, as its beautiful assets, maps, and city-building tools allow them to create realistic and incredibly detailed towns in a completely new setting we haven't been able to see from big-name studios before.
It’s heavily recommended for those who have felt that the city builder genre has been experiencing something of a quality drought.
