Noblesse Oblige: Legacy of the Sorcerer Kings is an epic high fantasy ruler RPG being built in an episodic format. As a solo developer, I strive to deliver a game of the highest quality, the kind I've always wanted to play myself, with innovative turn-based combat, a richly developed world, memorable characters, romance, and an in-depth story. I call Noblesse Oblige a ruler RPG because it combines exploration and turn-based RPG combat using a core party with aspects of rulership, including kingdom management elements, castle customization, and important story decisions that have long-term consequences. At present, new chapters of the game are released every 2-3 months. Old save compatibility with new versions is always maintained, so you can always pick up where you left off when a new version releases. Current Content Current playtime: 50+ hours Latest Version: v0.17 "The Summit of Riversmeet" (released 12-7-2025) Chapters: 16 extensive chapters Words: 900,000+ Other: An eclectic soundtrack of over 140 carefully chosen songs, intricate maps made with over 65 separate tilesets, hundreds of customized animations, and several major story branches with continuing differences. Characters ...and many more to discover! About the Game What does it mean to be nobility? Is it no more than an inherited title, or does it hold some greater meaning? To some, nobility is not merely a station to be held, but an obligation to be met, and yet... Can such convictions hold firm in the face of intrigue, betrayal, and overwhelming odds? Noblesse Oblige: Legacy of the Sorcerer Kings tells the story of Alexander, an idealistic yet pragmatic nobleman, and his companions. They will have need of cunning and conviction in equal measure, if they are to navigate the intricacies of politics, intrigue, ruling, and love amidst a tempestuous civil war. Kingdoms dance upon the stage set by those who rule them, and upon this one shall play out a war born from the confluence of three unyielding wills... Upon his return from studying in a distant land, Alexander’s birthright has been stolen and his lands thrown into chaos. Faced with this betrayal and the sudden loss of all that he has spent his life preparing for, he must take up the sword and retake what is his. But a true ruler does not—cannot—live by the sword alone, not if he seeks to create something that can endure. No, victory in battle may be essential, but true triumph comes in subtler ways: to claim a lasting, meaningful victory, Alexander must not merely crush or outwit his enemies, but also navigate the labyrinthine politics of court, inspire his people… and perhaps find love for himself amidst it all. To some, the obligations of a lord are but a burden; to others, a farce. Yet to one like Alexander, who is possessed of the conviction to embrace his obligations, naught could bring greater satisfaction that using his power for good. Beneath the banner of such a lord gather allies, both those drawn by the flame of his will and those who have been touched by the light of his actions. Along the narrow path to victory, Alexander will gather a group of loyal companions—lovers, friends, rivals, allies, even those who were once his enemies, each with unique personalities and skills. Together with them, he will delve into the dark places of the world, traverse mountains, fight great battles... and perhaps most of all, struggle against those most terrible of shadows—those that lurk in the hearts of men, wrought by greed, hatred, envy, and sometimes lust. But it is in deepest darkness that light can shine the brightest. Will you join Alexander on his journey to change the world for the better? Features In Noblesse Oblige, every character is unique, with his or her own opinions, personality, and reasons for joining the party. Every party member has loyalty, driven by their opinions of choices made and paths taken; increasing loyalty unlocks powerful skill upgrades and extra story content for that character. In addition to their unique perspectives on the story, each of Alexander’s companions brings unique mechanics into battle. These include not only a wide variety of skills and playstyles, but also unique passive effects that shape how they approach combat. Combat in Noblesse Oblige is a novel take on the traditional turn-based RPG, one intended to promote skill and judicious use of abilities, rather than merely managing attrition or spamming generic attacks. Beyond the battlefield, a lord must rule his realm. To see this done, Alexander must carefully build and manage key factors like Popular Support, Noble Support, Economic Status, Army Size, and Army Quality, factors that will have important impacts as the game proceeds. Hold court and rule upon upon the disputes that divide the realm, and determine where best to spend your Royal Funds for the good of the realm! Other choices hold far greater import, shaping the very path you seek to walk: with whom to ally, who is most worthy of holding strategic lands, or what faith the realm should follow. These choices, though few, will have a lasting impact upon the story. But ruling the realm is not without its perks. Any lord of any importance has need of a castle, and that castle should reflect its lord’s desires. Accordingly, Noblesse Oblige features a system allowing for extensive castle customization: At present, Noblesse Oblige is free; when the game is closer to completion, this may change. For now, if you enjoy the game, please consider purchasing the optional Crown Loyalist DLC.
