Citadels is a historical, real-time strategy video game developed by Games Distillery and published by bitComposer Games. Based on a loose interpretation of the King Arthur tale, players are tasked with restoring the honor, glory and reign of the Arthurian line. With two, separate extensive campaigns, players will be given the choice of seeing the Good or Evil side of the war, as they carve a path into an uncertain future for the King and his loyal men.[1] Upon the successful completion of in-game side-quests, players will be rewarded with legendary heroes for use in the main campaign. Strategy and a keen tactical mind will seize the day; players must carefully manage the resources and soldiers given to them, if they hope to achieve total victory!
This downloadable-only title was released on July 25, 2013 for Windows via Steam. The game, however, was universally panned by the media and gaming community.
