Hey guys, we are the development team behind House of Legacy, and we are beyond excited (and a little nervous) to finally welcome you to the Early Access version of the game!

It’s a big moment for us, and we are thrilled to share the world of House of Legacy with you, but we also know it’s not perfect yet. Still, we want to extend our heartfelt thanks to every one of you who’s supported and encouraged us along the way. Your anticipation and feedback have carried us through.

[h2]What’s in the EA Version?[/h2]
The Early Access build already contains a wealth of features to dive into, and we hope it offers a unique and immersive clan-management experience set in ancient China.



Pro tip: When importing blueprints, we recommend clearing your current map first to avoid overlapping buildings.

[h2]Looking Ahead — Our Commitment[/h2]
We know the current version still has room to grow, but please know this is only the beginning of the journey.

To meet our launch timeline, some features and mechanics are still in development. While they may seem limited now, we plan to greatly expand their role and functionality in future updates. Your feedback will directly shape our priorities, and we’ll continue improving the game, expanding its content, and making this world richer and more alive with every update.

We’ll be sharing a detailed update roadmap soon. In the meantime, we’d love to hear your thoughts!

Please note: the game contains a large amount of text, including classical Chinese, which makes localization especially challenging. We are continuing to refine the wording, and we appreciate your understanding if you come across any translation issues or awkward phrasing.

We hope you enjoy the game, and HAVE FUN building your legacy!

Hey everyone! We are back with some exciting news, and thank you so much for your patience. We are thrilled to finally announce that House of Legacy will launch on Steam on May 15, 2025, priced at $14.99 / €14.79 / £12.79. You can also enjoy a 10% launch discount during the first two weeks!

After years of passionate development, the game is ready to meet the world. From our first concept to the final product, we’ve stayed true to our vision: to create a deep and immersive dynasty simulator. Although the game will enter Early Access, it already offers a wealth of content, and we’ll continue to expand and refine it based on your feedback.

In House of Legacy, you’ll take charge of a powerful family across generations of political intrigue, warfare, and legacy-building. Every decision you make can shape the course of your family’s future.

[h3]Key Features:[/h3]

• Build Freely. With over 200 modular building pieces, you can design your own mansion, farm, or city just the way you like.
  
  
• Raise a Dynasty. Guide your descendants through generations, managing assets like estates, shops, land, and property.
  
  
• Family Politics. Each playthrough randomly generates about 30 unique noble families. Cooperate or compete with them as dynamic NPCs form their own relationships, grudges, and rivalries.
  
  
• Climb the Ranks. Pass the imperial exams, govern territories, rise through the bureaucracy or fall from grace. Join the military, earn titles, and bless future generations.
  
  
• Lead in Battle. Command your armies, conquer territories, and navigate the complex politics between the court and rebels to shift the balance of power.
  
  
• Seize Power. Support the ruling dynasty or help crown a new emperor — perhaps even from your own bloodline — and steer the fate of the empire.
  
  
• Dynamic World. Experience unpredictable events, shifting loyalties, political drama, and family interactions that affect the course of your entire campaign.
  

Thank you again for all your patience, feedback, and support. Yep, May 15 — let’s do it. Let your legacy begin. Step into the world of House of Legacy and write your own chapter in history.

Hey guys! It’s been a while! We’ve started sharing updates in our community groups to keep you in the loop and ease some of the excitement for new content. Again, the journey of House of Legacy wouldn’t be possible without your trust and support, and we’re so grateful for our amazing community. If you have any ideas or suggestions about the features we’re working on, feel free to drop them in the comments—we’d love to hear from you! Here’s a quick rundown of some features we’ve completed recently:


- Players can now customize family surnames, names of descendants, farm names, residence names, and more.


- The edit and construction modes have been merged for simplified building operations.
- You can hold down shortcut keys to drag along a straight line for rapid construction.
- During building edits, you can quickly undo construction actions using shortcut keys.



- The family tree now features a hierarchical diagram to showcase relationships among family members.
- Additional categorization for family members, such as descendants and spouses, has been added.
- The retainer module now displays all recruited retainers in the family.
- The children’s information panel now includes details about their mothers.
- A new “Clan Duties” feature allows family members to automatically handle tasks such as collecting money, socializing, and procurement.
- Spouses now have a relationship status (displayed only for wives and live-in husbands), which influences offspring reproduction.



- Matchmaking: Matchmaker events can randomly occur in city residences, allowing you to select roles for matchmaking.
- Rebellions: Public grievances may lead to refugee uprisings. Neglecting these uprisings could result in the city falling under refugee army control.
- Natural Disasters: Disasters may occur, triggering events such as price surges and grain relief efforts.
- Administrative Affairs: When the family has officials in governance, administrative events will require handling. The mechanics for these events have been enriched and improved.



- Only generals can be appointed as commanders during wars. Troop numbers are determined by the general’s rank. Generals can earn promotions through military service, either as regular soldiers or commanders.
- Family generals may be summoned by the court as commanders for imperial expeditions.
- Generals can gain noble titles through military merit, along with land grants. Current noble titles include Duke, Marquis, and Earl, with the addition of land names (e.g., Duke of X).
- Generals have a chance to become commanders of the Imperial Guards (12 guards), enabling greater control over the imperial city.
- Female generals now have unique designs with dedicated attire instead of sharing male clothing.



- Purchased residences now have visible effects for easier identification.
- A new feature allows selling residences. Prices fluctuate dynamically based on public grievances, population, and prosperity.
- Demolition of residences will include prompts if any retainers reside in them.



- Added display filter settings for the city scene: You can choose to show or hide the names of key buildings, such as shops, and filter to display specific types of characters.
- Added an imperial city panel where central government officials, Imperial Guard commanders, guard numbers, treasury status, and court events are displayed. Players can also enter the imperial city to interact with the royal family.
- Opera Functionality: The theater system has been enhanced. You can now select specific operas for performances, and their popularity will influence the guests they attract.
- Quantity Selection: Improved controls for adjusting quantities. You can now hold the increment/decrement button for rapid adjustments, directly input numbers for large quantities, and retain the original units system (ones, tens, hundreds, etc.).
- Debt Adjustment: Debt is now allowed for imperial examinations but not for shop overdrafts.
- Expanded Minister Roles: Diversified tasks for court officials, including positions such as Minister of Works, Minister of Rites, and Minister of Personnel.

Dear friends of House of Legacy,

We sincerely thank you for your support during the Steam Next Fest. Many players have engaged deeply with our demo, and we greatly appreciate the valuable feedback and suggestions we’ve received through social media and direct messages.

We understand that some players have expressed a desire for more time to experience the game. In response, we have decided to extend the demo availability until October 31st to accommodate those interested in trying House of Legacy.
We have compiled a list of frequently asked questions regarding the current demo version and consulted with our development team to provide the following responses:

Q: In the demo, family names and character names are randomized. Will customization be possible in future versions?
A: We apologize for the randomization in this demo; it was chosen for various reasons. However, we have observed that some players enjoy the quirky names generated randomly. We plan to implement customizable name options in the official release.

Q: The game requires manual clicking for quantity selections. Will there be improvements in this area?
A: We have received feedback regarding the user interface and the convenience of quantity settings, as well as suggestions for optimizing the family tree and addressing balance issues. We take these concerns seriously and are working to improve them.

Q: The building experience feels somewhat clunky. Will adjustments be made to this aspect?
A: We apologize for the less-than-optimal experience for players who enjoy building mechanics. We have gathered constructive suggestions from various platforms, including Discord and Twitter, particularly regarding building module improvements. We appreciate your understanding and support, and we will work on enhancing the building mechanics in future updates.

Q: There seems to be room for improvement in the tutorial. Will future versions feature an improved guide?
A: The tutorial in this demo was developed under a tight timeframe, resulting in incomplete guidance. We plan to enhance the tutorial with more detailed instructions in future updates.

Q: When will the game officially launch? We have heard unconfirmed reports suggesting a release within this year.
A: We are actively working on the feedback and bug fixes from this test. The game is still in development, and we have additional tests and preparations to complete before launch. As a result, we do not yet have a confirmed release date. We will keep you updated on any relevant developments regarding the launch through our social media channels and player groups.

In the coming weeks, we will dedicate more time to the development and optimization of House of Legacy, addressing the feedback we have received. We have encountered numerous creative and engaging suggestions from players during the demo period, which inspire us to incorporate them into the game. We aim to keep you informed about our progress after each development cycle. Thank you once again for your support and feedback
