About this game

From Bethesda Game Studios, the award-winning developer behind Skyrim and Fallout Shelter, comes The Elder Scrolls: Castles – a new mobile game that puts you in control of your very own castle and dynasty. Oversee your subjects as the years come and go, families grow, and new rulers take the throne.

BUILD YOUR DYNASTY

Tell your story for generations - each day in real life covers the span of an entire year in The Elder Scrolls: Castles. Train your subjects, name heirs, and maintain order to help your kingdom flourish. Will you keep your subjects happy and ensure a long life for their ruler? Or will they grow discontent and plot assassination?

MANAGE YOUR CASTLE

Customize your castle from the ground up, adding and expanding rooms, placing lavish decorations and inspirational monuments, and even assign subjects to workstations to ensure your castle has the resources to thrive for years to come!

RULE YOUR KINGDOM

Make key decisions that impact your legacy. Will you risk a limited supply of food to aid a neighboring kingdom? How should a heated spat between your subjects be settled? Your choices determine if your rule will inspire prosperity or lead your castle to peril.

COMPLETE EPIC QUESTS

Create heroes, equip them with epic gear, and send them to battle against classic Elder Scrolls foes to collect valuable items and keep your kingdom growing.

The game was overall pretty enjoyable, but very repetitive. I played it for like two weeks straight and put some spare change into it, but it never really gave me a sense of fulfillment or accomplishment. The game would often crash for me whenever I made rulings even after following the forums recommendations, and there's no way to interact with other players really. Kind of a cash grab with all of the micro transactions but lack of the feeling of progression.

I built a mill that was upgraded quite a bit was trying to build stuff around it and accidentally deleted it. It's not in my owned area, so it's gone. I have to wait to get more resources to get back what I've already earned and upgraded. Bummer. I feel like it should've went in an inventory or something. You're allowed to remove things and if you already built and bought it, You should be able to keep it.l. Also, can't wait for more levels. Got the pass for a year and have reached the end...

I love the art style, I love the premise and mechanics. However I absolutely cannot stand when developers think it's a good idea to force EVERY tutorial on something. The entire castle is out of oil and all the lights are gone, and food is about to stop being made, but good lord how important it is to send adventurers on several quests first so you know how to do it. Simply have a tutorial appear AFTER you interact with an item not when you build it. It's really irksome because it ruins the flow
