Game pageWarsim: a ruler’s duties lead to unexpected detours
Reviews enjoy the places and encounters found beyond ruling a kingdom. Rather than rushing a route to victory, the appeal is following your curiosity through a world presented in text.
A player sets aside other duties to hear visitors in the throne room, satisfied just watching the queue shrink. Their example shows how a ruler’s day can follow a very personal interest.
What makes it fun
A ruler's work in the visitor queue
Visitors arrive at the Throne Room with requests and jokes. You can hear them out, send them away, or open the trap door as you work through the queue.
Discoveries beyond the detour
A town found through exploration offers people to speak with and choices within each location. You might ask about a tavern's name, find a room recording its keeper's experiences, or stumble into a hidden room during a monster fight.
Arena bets can shape the treasury
At the Arena, you can watch fights and bet the kingdom's gold. Players describe funding their kingdom through wagers or losing gold on a bad pick, tying the spectacle to the treasury.
