You play as a ruler and are presented with certain choices.
If you've played a Reigns game before, this game should be more than familiar to you. Development house Nerial seems to understand this very well, as all of Reigns: Game of Thrones has you inhabiting the role of nine different characters from Westeros as they try to keep a handle on everything from the upkeep of King's Landing to the the impending Walker invasion.
The combination of Reigns and Game of Thrones makes so much sense because so much of both revolve around the decisions of individual characters as they try to rule over a kingdom. Even though Nerial's swipe-based management formula feels a bit long in the tooth and the latest season of Game of Thrones felt like a bombastic waiting game, Reigns: Game of Thrones manages to squeeze some novel fun out of these two aging properties. For my money, I'm hard-pressed to think of a licensed game idea that is better than the combining the gameplay of Reigns with the Game of Thrones universe.
