Long build the king.

<span class="bold">Hearthlands</span>, a medieval/fantasy city-builder that lets you rule over a procedurally generated world, is now available, DRM-free on GOG.com with a 30% launch discount!

Even a king cannot hope to fully control the whims of his subjects. What he can do, however, is manage the resources, build the right stuff, negotiate with neighboring or distant kingdoms, deal with heroes or wizardry, and generally make their lives interesting. While having tons of fun, obviously.

The 30% discount ends February 13, 4PM UTC.

Dray2k: This game reminds me of Beasts & Bumpkins.

Gonna watch this for now if its still in development.
its not, the dev confirmed it is "released" he will be making a post about it on steam according to a tweet he sent me

To me it looks like a mix of SimCity, a real-time Master of Magic, and um, that one game, with the thing. Majesty? Yeah, I think that's it.

Will have to look further into this one.

I can confirm this as well - we've just talked to the developer and the info above is indeed correct. The game is out of development now and this is a full release.

Finally! Facebook-approved games on GOG...

What happened to once unique and fantastic place, as GOG used to be? It is a road to nowhere, gentlemen. Old fans turned away already, new ones don't value DRM-free concept as much as you think. And this concept now is practically your ONLY advantage over Steam whose profit reports make you sick so much...

What's with game released in 2017 looks like game from 1990's?

So it this like the Cæsar games already here on GOG?
Posted February 06, 2017
Looks interesting! Is the game similar to Caesar III or Pharaoh?
Posted February 06, 2017
The games reminds me of mix of different games, maybe Caesar + Settlers + ...

However one thing, I don't understand: why it needs more than an integrated graphics? This would not work on an Intel HD 4000 or better? Really?

Looks cute - sort of like Settlers with maybe some Majesty? Though I'm guessing that part will be scaled down (just from looking at the screenshots).

And to Themken and Arcturus - to me it looks more Settlers / Anno than Caesar / Pharaoh. But that's just, like, my opinion man.

I've had this from Humble for awhile. Works just fine on my HD4600. I've only run run it on Linux, but I suspect Windows would be the same.

I agree it looks pretty bland artwise, but from appearances its gameplay is similar to caesar or zeus with some army building thrown in.

but calling a facebook game is a bit far.

Impaler26: This game is currently on sale for $11.99 at the developers site (DRM-Free version + Steam key):

http://hearthlands.com/

I wonder why they didn't match the release discount of the GOG version which costs 13,99€ here?
Well, I think they can make a lower price on their own website because they don't have the shop/platform fees of GOG or Steam there. I think it's fair. Besides, price here is not higher than on Steam (a few euro cents difference, probably it's not even intentional).

So on a scale of Bad Rats to Simcity 3000 how enjoyable is hearthlands, the artstyle (as I stated previously and sadly to say alfrodull does have a slight point there.) is a bit bland and what I guess you could call facebookish, does the gameplay make up for it?
