Warsim - Text-Based Procedural Kingdom Management Game

[huw2k8]

Hey guys, I have shared it here before so I thought I'd leave it a while but I've made many new developments on my game Warsim its an old project of mine and though it's still in development it's achieved everything I first envisioned for it and more!

It features a heavily procedurally generated world as you try to rule the Kingdom of Aslona, a once great land now plagued by rebellion, a united horde of bandits, two strong kingdoms of goblins and five randomly generated independent kingdoms with randomly generated races as well as countless other side factions, I have always loved randomly generated content and so the game is chock full of it.

* Over 15 quadrillion randomly generated faces!
* Randomly generated kingdoms with random flags, laws, rulers and relations that you can fight, or befriend
* Massive world exploration zone
* Randomly generated buildings and architecture
* Arena gambling, tournaments and grand champion fights
* Player Moddability, add your own jokes, faces, flags, names, races ect
* near infinite hireable companions such as jesters, generals, spymasters ect
* Thousands of random in game events and encounters to keep things interesting
* Tons of cheats and extra features stuffed into the game
* Millions of possible factions and wild and active gameworld
* and so much more!

**Some Screenshots**





























* [Here's a playthrough someone did for me that shows off the game quite well](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PsUn895-_9s)

It's a free download in the sidebar on www.reddit.com/r/WarsimRpg I am massively open to feedback, I have a tendency to add things that are suggested by players into the game and will respond to pretty much all the comments I get! Happy to answer any questions you guys have!
