I want to add a personal note of thanks. You have all been incredibly supportive of Manor Lords, this city builder started by a solo-developer, and taken it to 3.2 million player wishlists. Your support of developer Greg and his game has already been huge, and so I want to say: please, don't feel any pressure to buy the game if waiting is better for you. If money is tight right now or you're still uncertain, we'll run those 25% discounts often and give you plenty of opportunities to get the game later as well, no one should feel any fear of missing out or any kind of pressure. Or if you'd just rather wait some time and jump in later after some patches and updates have come out, that's fine too -- Early Access isn't for everyone, if you check back later the game will just keep getting better and better. We want you to make the right decision for you, without any pressure or rush of any kind.

But if you do choose to jump in now and join in the Early Access process, that's awesome -- please leave your feedback and suggestions in reviews and comments, and we look forward to getting your help in making the game better together!

Manor Lords guide - beginner tips and tricks

What are some beginner tips for playing Manor Lords? Perhaps more importantly, how can I avoid getting stuck in Manor Lords? Well, good news: Manor Lords moves at a gentle pace by default, and there's plenty of time before your first winter sets in to make sure your little medieval village is running smoothly. However, while you won't face too much in the way of violence or natural disasters during your first year, there are some mistakes you can make early on that can doom your settlement - or at least, severely hamper its growth.

In Manor Lords, you control a parcel of unimproved land somewhere in the European countryside. Starting with a group of five families, you'll need to scavenge for food and building materials, build workshops and housing, and keep your villagers happy enough to increase your Manor Lords population - to have enough of them around to levy taxes on eventually.

Manor Lords families - how to find and reallocate your workers

How do you relocate and assign families in Manor Lords? It takes a village to raise a... village. You can't do it alone, especially not when you're the omniscient god on the other side of a video game. The Manor Lords families under your control need to build, hunt, and forge, but you need to tell them where to be and when.

The top right of your Manor Lords HUD might show you how many families are currently working and how many are free to build or allocate to another job, but it doesn't help you find where some may no longer be needed. If you're looking to reallocate your residents in the city-building game, here's how to locate the Manor Lords families spread across your ever-growing world. Alternatively, you might also need to increase your Manor Lords population if you're struggling to find enough people to complete tasks
