Short description
Break from the traditional role of ruler and take up a new set of tools within Tales of a Spymaster, a turn-based strategy set in a fictional world, filled with threats and opportunities. Choose your kingdom and guide your ruler to victory, in whatever manner you deem fit.
About this game
Advise the Monarch to attack, defend, improve relations, and invest. Over 200+ conquerable locations. Compete with the royal court for the trust of your Monarch. Use agents to perform blackmail, sabotage, assassination, theft. Unleash poisons and plagues upon your enemies. Build taverns, inns, brothels and more to help fuel your ventures.

The very best Spymasters know how to effectively use all of the assets at their disposal, so assassins, mercenaries, saboteurs, spies, and the subtle dispatch of misinformation all have parts to play in your counter-espionage efforts. Use them wisely. Using population growth algorithms which take into account factors like age, gender, seasonal sickness, accidents, conscription and others, Tales of a Spymaster brings layers of complexity to a game world and how it affects your endeavours.
