THE ASHEN HEIR

About this game

THE ASHEN HEIR is a dark medieval strategy game where you inherit the throne after the king’s death.

The king left behind a starving people, unpaid soldiers, an empty treasury and nobles waiting for the right moment to take power.

The throne is yours now.

Hold the kingdom together. Silence your enemies. Expand your borders. Turn a broken realm into the greatest power on the continent.

WIN THE PEOPLE’S TRUST

Hunger and fear are spreading through the streets. The people no longer want promises. They want results. You can protect them, crush them or leave them to survive on their own.

STRENGTHEN THE ARMY

The borders are under threat. Soldiers want payment. Commanders want victory. Enemy kingdoms are waiting for the first sign of weakness.

PROTECT THE TREASURY

No command survives for long without gold. Armies do not march. Cities do not recover. Loyalty does not last.

CONTROL THE NOBLES

Everyone in the court looks loyal. But power hates an empty throne. A weak ruler becomes a guest in his own palace.

EXPAND YOUR KINGDOM

Restore order at home. Spread fear beyond your borders.

Make alliances. Declare wars. Crush rebellions. Expose betrayals. Let every kingdom on the continent know your name.

REACH ONE OF THOUSANDS OF POSSIBILITIES

Every reign can lead to a different end.

You can become a king loved by the people.

A conqueror followed by the army.

A weak ruler controlled by the nobles.

Or the last heir who destroyed his own kingdom through his own decisions.

You have taken the throne.

Save your kingdom, expand your borders and rule the world.

THE ASHEN HEIR

The king is dead and the throne is yours. Hold together a kingdom torn by hunger, war, rebellion and court intrigue as you control the people, the army, the treasury and the nobles; expand your borders, silence your enemies and reach one of thousands of possible outcomes.
