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.

To be honest, a little boring. I've been playing since launch. Now all I really do is collect resources and do a couple of quests (which are repetitive and dull) until my fighters have low health, then send them to the buffet room to replenish it. Many elements to the game just feel incomplete and hollow. Also, it's annoying when a ruler you like is murdered over some petty castle argument.

Overall a good game, however it does feel really slow in terms of one day equalling a year. I wish that system was faster. Also there's a continual glitch when I go to make royal decisions which means I have to restart the game everytime. Unlike fallout shelter, the quests are in one linear pathway which makes them feel less fun. After some serious updates it'll be good.

Could be great but they've cut too many corners. Game concept is pretty much just fallout shelter with a few tweaks to make it Skyrim instead. The issue is they've put no effort in, the art is poor, the inventory is incredibly clunky and the hitboxes for people are so messed up that you can spend ages trying to move someone manually before getting fed up and just finding the room and assigning them. Thats not even mentioning the fact the micro transactions are more like macrotransacrions
