Crusader Kings 3 expansion pack

Crusader Kings 3’s Royal Court is a game utility application from Paradox Development Studio. It is an expansion pack for the grand real-time strategy game Crusader Kings 3. It focuses on a specific area of rulership, holding court, and listening to your people.

Royal Court gives you a new territory other than the map-staring that the base game offers. It takes you to the royal court, where you can see your ruler sitting on their throne, surrounded by his family and courtiers. However, the activities you can do here are limited to designing your court and solving three disputes. 

What does the app offer?

Crusader Kings 3 is a strategy-role playing game that takes players to the Middle Ages, where they will play as a king. The goal is to make the kingdom prosperous by managing the land to survive the harsh cycle of life. Of course, as with medieval RPGs, it also includes going to war with other nations to expand the kingdom and your rulership.

Royal Court is a  DLC that adds new content to the game. As mentioned, there are two main activities here. The first one is designing your court. You can display artifacts, such as a house banner and legendary weapons that you find, steal, or make custom by new artisan characters. The other is holding court, where you have dilemmas you are expected to rule.

However, holding court can only be held every five years. Additionally, you are only given three presets of dilemmas. Moreover, the activities are a bit restrictive. You cannot get up and walk around your court. You also cannot walk around or chat up random courtiers. And even though there is a welcome photo mode, it only lets you select between a few preset camera angles.

Should you download it?

Crusader Kings 3’s Royal Court makes your medieval kingdom experience feel complete. It adds more flavor and role-playing fun to an already good game. Here, you can see the king in his natural habitat, passing judgments and hearing petitions. You can even design your throne room to reflect your dynasty. Note, however, that the activities you can do are still restricted.
