Yes, Your Grace

Yes, Your Grace is a strategy game that enables the players to prove themselves in managing a medieval kingdom. The game, inspired mainly by Slavic folklore, was developed by an independent team at Brave At Night, and its release was taken care of by No More Robots.

Plot

The action of the game takes place in the fantasy kingdom of Davern. During the game, we play the role of a ruler, who has not yet had a son, and thus - an heir to the throne. In the past, the king decided to give the hand of his eldest daughter, Lorsulia, to the leader of the barbaric tribe from the north. In time, however, he understood his mistake and, trying to correct it, he allowed her to marry a prince instead.

The weddings ended in a catastrophe for the kingdom; an army of savages, who came for Lorsulia, plunders its lands, the undefended castle falls into ruin, and the treasure becomes empty at an alarming pace. This is where the player comes in to rebuild Davern and ensure the safety of both their subjects and members of the royal family.

Mechanics

The gameplay in Yes, Your Grace resembles the Reigns series. During the game, we spend most of our time in the throne room, shown on the side, where various people with their problems waiting to be solved come to seek an audience. These include both trivial matters, such as a lost piglet, and much more serious worries, such as the damaged defensive walls of the castle, deficiencies in the army or impending battles with enemy troops. Which of these will be given priority is entirely up to us. It is worth noting, however, that we have limited resources, the decisions we make have consequences for the whole kingdom and for our loved ones, and that without the support of the nobles, who can offer their help in exchange for a particular favor, our days as a king may be numbered.

Technical aspects

Yes, Your Grace was created in pixel art; the game's visual side is enjoyable due the rich color palette and attention to detail.
