I've been playing this game ever since it released in June 2021 and checked in on it periodically ever since. The base game had loads of potential and enjoyability even at its crude earliest release form. Over the past 4,5 years the devs have relentlessly worked on adding important new content to give the game actual progression, an economy and now it finally gained grand objectives, allowing players to formally "finish" a game of Going Medieval. There is still work to do, but I am confident in the devs and I can recommend buying the game even in its current early-access stage, since it has grown to be quite fleshed out.

Welcome to Going Medieval. Here are 20 different keybinds we expect you to learn and remember immediately, before you get to actually play. There will be no further prompts or reminders about this. Yeah, my crap memory thanking the devs for that. Great game otherwise.

Looking for a nice colony building game? You got it. Looking for an alternative to Rimworld? Go play Rimworld, nothing beats it.

I dont know about this one. The game has a lot of content, but the layer-system and the combat + pathing are super janky. The AI may be one of the dumbest i have seen. I had a raid of 5 splitting apart into 3 waves (because of bad pathing). Also, you can use one guy and run in a circle, while your bowmen kill all raiders (who are running after the guy). If you setup the terrain correctly, the Ai will never even reach your settlers. The layer system (controlling camera view for different altitude levels) is not better. Not only do you have to press Strg+Scroll to go up and down ALL THE TIME if you want to see whats happening, the layers are also divided into decimals. That is the worst way to solve this. Atleast show me the topmost layer when there is nothing below. Or let me define a zone for my base and outside of that zone the topmost layer is always shown, so i dont have to scroll up the ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ mountains I still recommend this game because the it is in early access. And it being janky doesnt mean its not fun, im just starting to get tired due to the layer system and (to a lesser extent because of) the combat.

I first played this in 2021. There was a lot of potential but it was still rough, so I shelved it until I decided to retry last week. This is much improved game. Overall, it's not as good as Rimworld but it's got it's own charm / strengths. Being able to build no kidding castles is great and there are many, many things it does right. However, there are still a few features that are oddly lacking. - Not able to manually que multiple tasks like you can in Rimworld. This is extremely annoying. - Not being to mass assign weapons / clothing / etc, instead having to manually switch each settler from summer to winter clothing, for example. - Enemy raids will sometimes spawn right behind your base, in extremely close proximity. - Instead of 1 - 5 priorities for job, let us do 1 - 10 to allow for more granular control on tasks. - Storage restrictions are arbitrary. I can't place whatever I want on a shelf? Only certain classes of item? - I have yet to have a single mood issue with my settlers. The system exists but it's extremely easy to keep your settlers happy and interpersonal conflict doesn't occur like in Rimworld from what I've seen. I even intentionally made a rude settler who should be hard to get along with and she's still friends with everyone. Overall a great game and can't wait for more content. But I hope they address some of these core issues, particularly with commands.
