A fun little text-based rpg that goes from birth to about 30 years old (or true death, if you mess up). I enjoyed going through the death throes of an alien empire with just enough similarities to medieval times to make it understandable. The history and especially the religious lore is quite in depth, although at times you get blind-sided by facts like there being blue-skinned people who are kind of like divine right elves.
Your family, title, and estate are equally as important as the other broad historical events happening. You can keep your family together and powerful, or try and gut Stephan for being an annoying little shit constantly and then lose your noble title. What fun!
The weakest part of the game was the limited voice acting, which didn't add much, and the minmax feeling for early stats, which led me to focus less on the childhood choices and more on stat maxing.
