any games that feature monasteries or focus on ecclesiastical life?
>>2383013>The Stone of Madness>Set in an 18th-century Spanish Monastery>Located in the Pyrenees, this time-worn Jesuit monastery is home to a madhouse and an inquisitorial prison.https://www.gog.com/en/game/the_stone_of_madness
>>2383030It is quite literally given for free on epic right now
>>2383013The next expansion for crusader kings 2 is letting you play as high ranking priestsDetails of how that DLC will actually work are sparse though, the more concrete stuff they have shown is new mechanics around heresy in the free patch
theres not too many. its a niche in the market
>>2383013
not a strategy game but Pentiment is probably the best monastery-focused game to ever exist, look it up its amazing, made by the same guys behind fallout new vegas
>>2383691Excelent, sweet as
>>2383691Not so many people knows that the name of one of the creators, Umberto Eco, was in fact the Italian writer Umberto Eco using the Spanish version of his name
>>2383013Bump
Foundation allows you to run a monastery that sustains itself by trade, but it lacks ecclesiastical depth
>>2383013In The Guild 1 or 2 you can build a monastery and run it yourself. dont quote me on that, its been years since i last played it. A random recommendation on a book that you might find interesting is ''The name of the rose''. A murder mystery book set in an Italian monastery in 1327, Otherwise good luck on your finding a game!
>>2387420Ken Follett's The Pillars of the Earth
>>2383013a build and run your own medieval cathedral sim would be coolSomeone needs to make that
>>2387420>The name of the roseand pentiment was pretty much based on that book. terrible terrible novel btw. didnt like it at all
>>2387460this is the closest we got so farhttps://store.steampowered.com/app/3179120/Monastery_Ora_et_Labora/feels assetslop thobeit
>>2383013Not a Strategy game by any means, but Kingdome Come: Deliverance has a whole mission where you need to infiltrate a monastery by joining as a monk, and for you to be able to go without arousing suspision you need to follow the strict schedule of a monk until you can fullfill your objective.
>Foundation is a gridless medieval city builder where you can focus your town around one or several types of "monuments": a manor, a castle, or a monastery.Pic related is a monastery. All parts are modular, and you add several types of buildings that serve different functions or produce different kind of ressources, such as>Nun and/or Monk dorm>Refectory>Kitchen>Scriptorium>Hospitium >Chapel>Herb Garden>Berry Garden>Grape Garden>Veggies Garden>Apiary>Granges>Winemaker
>>2388529>until you can fullfill your objective.Which takes maybe 7 hours in game, 30 minutes irl.
>>2383474I like CK3 and I've got like 900 hours in it but I'd like it more if it were less memey.
