Manor Lords early access review

For now, Manor Lords is a single-player game with no multiplayer or co-op modes. It was designed as a single-player experience and this is where development efforts will likely remain.

To build a Manor in Manor Lords, you need a settlement level of at least a small village (this is literally the first stage though, as long as you've upgraded from the starting tents to actual burgage plots) along with 5x timber, 20x planks, and 15x stone.

Greg Styczeń was the creator and solo developer of Manor Lords through his studio Slavic Magic, and in early years was funded in part through donations on Patreon. Releasing an announcement trailer in July 2020, Styczeń initially aimed for the game to be wishlisted 14,000 times on Steam.
