About This Game

Bergfried is a strategy game set in a colorful, believable medieval world, where you build and defend unique, organic castles.
Prepare layered defenses and command your troops to withstand enemy attacks. Expand strategically and manage your resources carefully to survive prolonged sieges.

Bergfried offers an organic castle-building experience on a unique grid that captures the irregular shapes of European castles from the high and late middle ages.

Build castles that follow the contours of the landscape, taking full advantage of natural defenses or impose strict geometric layouts to fortify your domain.

Plan your defenses carefully to withstand attacking armies and long sieges.

Strategically place towers and gatehouses, and position troops on the ramparts.

Gather resources and manage your economy to construct castles, villages and towns.

Expand your territory to gain control of key resources and strengthen your position.

Adapt to dynamic events like the market day, tournaments or the king visiting your castle.

Command your troops in tactical field battles and intense castle sieges.

Recruit archers, crossbowmen, spearmen, men-at-arms, and knights.

Use the tactical pause feature to issue commands without time pressure.
