Unfortunately, so far results have been a little disappointing.
Cyanide’s strategy effort was panned at release, and its RPG sunk without a trace, despite being pretty decent considering. In fact, the best Game of Thrones release to date is probably the social game, Ascent – although we have high hopes for Telltale’s game and Bigpoint’s MMORPG. In the meantime, the fantasy universe provides an enormous treasure trove of lore for modders to leverage in full conversion mods. Here are some of the most promising. A Clash of Kings. A Clash of Kings Base game: Mount & Blade: Warband Released: September 2012 Last ModDB update: June 2014 (dev update) ModDB user rating: 9 A medieval combat sim, Mount & Blade provides a great base for a Game of Thrones game. Warband, which has more focus on putting together an army, is even better suited to the franchise’s famous factionism and political skullduggery.
A Clash of Kings is a mod for Mount & Blade: Warband created by Cozur.The project is based on the series of books by author George R. R Martin, A Song of Ice and Fire and the modification is named after the second book in the series, during which time the modification takes place.
