Build It Up! - The Holy Roman Empire

Gameplay:

Build It Up! – The Holy Roman Empire is a medieval simulation combining city-building, resource management, strategic battles and sieges.

Start as a small landowner with only a few settlers and struggle to survive your first winter. By gathering resources, building production chains, and trading wisely, you provide your people with the goods they need. Step by step, your village grows into a prosperous city in the heart of the Holy Roman Empire.

To maintain an army, you need plenty of food, weapons, and a large population. Expand and construct specialized villages and cities to increase productivity and secure strategic resources. Build fortresses to protect nearby settlements and defend your cities with walls and towers. Conquer other towns and villages with soldiers and siege engines—or wield the power of diplomacy to achieve your goals without bloodshed.

As your power, fame, and influence with the Church grow, you earn the electors' vote and ascend as Emperor of the Holy Roman Empire!
