Tales of a Spymaster is a turn-based strategy game taking place within the fictional land of Elas, where 8 kingdoms vie for control, and the time has come for you to play the part of the trusted right-hand as you take on the mantle of Spymaster.

As the Spymaster, you must maintain the trust and good favour of your monarch, allowing you to influence their choices and guide them to victory. It is up to you to make the correct choices, when to be bold by raiding and attacking your enemies, and when to exercise caution, by bolstering defences or favouring diplomatic relations. But be wary, for poor advice leads to mistrust meaning future advice could go unheeded at a time where it is imperative. Your monarch will turn to the other members of the court if they have to, who could even be under the influence of a rival Spymaster.

If information is power, then money is the key to unlocking it, so you can construct Brothels, Inns, Taverns and more in order to grease the wheels of espionage and fund your enterprises, but still, that will not be enough to ensure victory. 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. For example, a heavy loss in a poorly chosen battle could be far more costly in the long run as it will mean population growth will shrink due to a new absence of appropriately aged men. A wise Spymaster knows that advising your Monarch to go to war should always be a last resort.

Remember, trust is of utmost importance, for all among the Royal court have their price. Whether clergy, nobility, military, many can be bought and brin

Tales of a Spymaster user review

TL;DR: A frustrating lack of information and direction and a clunky UI make for a barebones experience that fails to deliver on a cool premise. That said, it is clear that this developer is actively working on this so if you want to help him out or try what exists now out it's ok, but if you're expecting anything close to a polished or even satisfying experience you should look elsewhere.

Updated Review:

Great game that is very strategic in nature. the tutorial is decent but not complete. The video pretty much tells how it is but it is not complete. I was not able to set fires or start plagues at enemy locations. Load game is broken. By that I mean that when you load a game it glitches and the play field is black hopefully they fix this soon as I have started 3 games and cannot continue.

I don't know where to begin on this, it feels like it could be great. Really great. Working as a spy earning trust through your victories, while hiding away and pulling the strings from the back!

The bugs are gamebreaking, the AI is stupid, the gameplay gets stale quickly. Has a long way to go.

Game has great potential but currently is too buggy to recommend.

This Review takes place 2 Months into Early Access, so bug issues and lack of polish are expected.

Well, I just played that game. There are lots basic things to do.

The concept is nice.

Very enjoyable if a bit buggy, it has a unique charm and fun mechanics
