Manor Lords is an indie medieval city-building strategy game. For now, it is number one on the top sellers list on Steam. Also, it is one of the top-selling games on the Epic Games store. After all, according to its publisher @HoodedHorseInc, the game has sold over one million copies.

The game had over 170,000 active players over the weekend. Thus, Manor Lords exceeded expectations and surpassed other games from the city-building genre in player numbers. For example, Cities: Skylines II has an all-time peak of over 100,000 players, and Sid Meier’s Civilization VI has an all-time peak of 162,000 players since its release.

What to consider before buying Manor Lords

Manor Lords received many positive reviews. However, players are a bit concerned about its success. Some think developers might forget about the game after it leaves early access. Yet, many praise the game and say it has great potential.

The game has astonishing graphics, and the overall gameplay will keep you occupied for hours. On top of that, Manor Lords has a game editor.
