Bitter Lords: Medieval RPG

Rule a house, not just a single hero.

Bitter Lords is a medieval strategy RPG where war, marriage, intrigue and succession shape the fate of your dynasty. Begin as a ruler in a living feudal world, expand your realm and prepare your bloodline for the generations ahead.

Every decision becomes part of your dynasty’s story. Make allies, challenge rivals, launch schemes and wage wars—but remember that every ruler eventually dies. Secure an heir and continue your campaign through succession.

BUILD A MEDIEVAL DYNASTY

Marry, raise a family and protect your line of succession. A strong realm means little if there is no heir ready to inherit it.

RULE YOUR REALM

Manage your lands, wealth, relationships and military strength. Balance the needs of your domain while pursuing greater power.

WAGE WAR

Raise troops, raid rival lands, join conflicts and fight to expand your territory. Choose your battles carefully: a reckless war can destroy everything your house has built.

MASTER POLITICAL INTRIGUE

Befriend useful rulers, influence uncertain allies, pursue romances or scheme against dangerous rivals. Political success can accomplish what armies cannot.

RISE THROUGH THE FEUDAL RANKS

Grow from a minor ruler into one of the most powerful lords in the medieval world. Build influence, acquire new realms and pursue the crown.

SURVIVE SUCCESSION

Your ruler will not live forever. Prepare the next generation and continue playing through your heir when death comes.

CREATE A NEW STORY EVERY TIME

A living simulation of rulers, realms, marriages, wars, schemes, births and deaths creates unexpected stories throughout every campaign.

Will your dynasty rise to greatness—or disappear into history?
