You should absolutely try this game.

The game is hard! But it feels deterministic, it feels fair. Love just the tiny bit of pure chance that is whether the trenches will light or not, it's exciting but will never entirely invalidate your plan. The army seems to always go towards Bran, making you feel very clever using him to divert troops into a trap of successive cavalry charges and infantry pushes. 

Visuals are just enough, it never takes away from the fun of the mechanics. It together with the music captures the atmosphere of the tv series well.

Love how the tutorial is also the interface for every battle, makes everything crystal clear.
