Firesquid and strategy game developer Resistance Games are celebrating Steam Strategy Fest with the Early Access launch of their feudal grand strategy epic, Great Houses of Calderia.
Secure a lasting dynasty by leading a noble family who desires to rule all of Calderia. As a mythical province of the Empire, Calderia has been scarred by the insatiable thirst for power. Create powerful diplomatic relationships and alliances by using family members to spy, trade, or marry into neighboring houses.
Be careful in who to trust as the old adage, “blood is thick than water” holds true. The destiny of the family rests in the hands and actions of its members. Choices can either strengthen or destroy alliances in a single tactical maneuver.
Using strategic and influential power plays can help increase the house’s power. Expand to new territories, demand allegiances, and create generational traditions to become the predominant house in all of the land. Define the family’s traditions over generations to gain unique advantages and weaknesses.
The fate of Calderia rests in the player’s hands. Honorary Ranks can be used to influence events in favor of the player’s house while also hurting other houses to build a lasting legacy. Naturally, all of these actions are in service of the crown.
Gameplay features a real-time tactical battle system that used to wage war. Social conflicts are managed through a unique resource management system. Send delegations to competing houses and organize trade agreements. Create unique stories, unveil the land of Calderia, and solve its legends and myths.
Great Houses of Calderia Availability
Great Houses of Calderia is available in Early Access on Windows PC via Steam for $24.99. The Great Houses of Calderia Official Soundtrack and the Great Houses of Calderia Artbook are available as separate DLC for $7.99 and $9.99 respectively.
