My time with Crusader Kings III has been a blast. Sure, it’s had its challenges, but on the whole, this game had me hooked very quickly. “Just one more move!” I kept telling myself. It was never just one more move because before I knew it, I was embroiled in a new conflict, plot, or scheme. Crusader Kings III is endless. It comes with a steep learning curve, but never overstays its welcome. A terrific example of how a strategy game can transcend the tropes of the genre and become its own beast entirely.

It should be noted that if you are a fan of the Crusader Kings series, this game is a must for you. It has seen some good progress compared to the previous games. However, if you are new to this franchise or the strategic genre as a whole, you should know that you have to spend a tremendous amount of time learning it. Now if you do not have a problem with this issue, put on the royal costume, and enter the endless world of this game.

Crusader Kings III is one of those special games, which have the power to captivate the player's attention to the point that makes you lose track of the time. Its mix of great strategy with RPG elements makes this an unmissable title for fans of history or lovers of good plots. By highlighting interpersonal relationships as much as other subsystems, Paradox Interactive offers a range of possibilities and events as complex and varied as the human mind itself.

Crusader Kings III is a worthy heir to its predecessor and a grand strategy game that everyone absolutely has to try. You may bounce off initially, but if you give it some time, I believe most people will get swept away in its complex mechanics and interesting take on Middle Ages dynasties and politics.

Four generations in, I felt it was time to retire and did so with a smile on my face. Crusader Kings III forces you to play as a human capable of only human feats, and constantly reminds you of that fact. But it is this limitation that gives every action you take a real sense of weight, and makes even the most mundane of decisions feel like life and death.

Crusader Kings III’s role-playing elements take the center stage, with your choices leading to a plethora of possible outcomes. The wargame side of things is less engaging, however, as battles are largely a strength in numbers affair. Regardless, whether you play solo or online, there are many hours of gameplay hidden beneath the surface of what is effectively a Medieval Sims game.

The system of Crusader Kings III is as deep as its predecessor while the UI and the guidance are much improved for the novice. Although some glitches still exist, it's clear that Crusader Kings III is the best strategy game Paradox has ever made.
