About the game
In Medieval, each of the players will become the leader of the group of men-at-arms, roaming South Bohemia in the late 14th century, laying siege to castles, helping monks or playing the game of dice in taverns. Medieval is a dice-driven game. Each of the party members offers unique abilities that will help the player to succeed. However, not all of them will agree with all your decisions, thanks to the implementation of the moral system.
