A Game of Thrones – Genesis Reveals New Screenshots

If you enjoyed the series of books from the author George R.R. Martin, namely A Game of Thrones or A Song of Ice and Fire, then you’ll be glad to know that Cyanide Studios have been developing a new strategy game entitled A Game of Thrones – Genesis for PC. Based on the “A Song of Fire and Ice” novel, the game will not only want you to flex you military skills and strategy muscles to defeat your enemy, but to use your political and economical prowess as well, but keep an eye on your six, as treachery is afoot!

Faithful to the world imagined by George R.R. Martin, A Game of Thrones – Genesis emphasizes the backstabbing and political intrigues which are common in Westeros and the fight for the Iron Throne. Command the assassination of an opponent’s Great Lord, set up secret alliances, send a spy to take the place of the opponent’s unit, or harass his trade routes to weaken his economy. Treasons, espionage, kidnapping and ransoms… treachery is everywhere, so always watch your back!

It is also very possible, by cleverly using all the low blows the game allows you to use, to earn victory without ever entering an open war or recruiting any army. A real first in a real-time strategy game! Of course, military approach is valid as well! Raise an army, besiege enemy villages and castles, force them to submit to your rule, and crush all resistance. You truly have all options at your disposal to achieve victory and reach the Iron Throne!

A Game of Thrones – Genesis will be available to buy at retail or digital download on 29th September so get your pre-orders in but in the meantime, here are the new screenshots!
