About This App

From Bethesda Game Studios, the award-winning developer behind Skyrim and Fallout Shelter, comes The Elder Scrolls: Castles – a new mobile game that puts you in control of your very own castle and dynasty. Oversee your subjects as the years come and go, families grow, and new rulers take the throne.

BUILD YOUR DYNASTY

Tell your story for generations - each day in real life covers the span of an entire year in The Elder Scrolls: Castles. Train your subjects, name heirs, and maintain order to help your kingdom flourish. Will you keep your subjects happy and ensure a long life for their ruler? Or will they grow discontent and plot assassination?

MANAGE YOUR CASTLE

Customize your castle from the ground up, adding and expanding rooms, placing lavish decorations and inspirational monuments, and even assign subjects to workstations to ensure your castle has the resources to thrive for years to come!

RULE YOUR KINGDOM

Make key decisions that impact your legacy. Will you risk a limited supply of food to aid a neighboring kingdom? How should a heated spat between your subjects be settled? Your choices determine if your rule will inspire prosperity or lead your castle to peril.

COMPLETE EPIC QUESTS

Create heroes, equip them with epic gear, and send them to battle against classic Elder Scrolls foes to collect valuable items and keep your kingdom growing.

★☆☆☆☆

This is a cute little game, I have liked it, however, This game feels like it's practically been on life support for years now, they haven't added any new content or elder scrolls stuff for a very long time, not even for microtransactions, and just keep rerunning the same few events, as compared to Fallout Shelter which got bits and pieces added and added from all over its games and universe. I fear that with requiring a server connection, it is soon to join Elder Scrolls Legends as lost media.

I built a mill that was upgraded quite a bit was trying to build stuff around it and accidentally deleted it. It's not in my owned area, so it's gone. I have to wait to get more resources to get back what I've already earned and upgraded. Bummer. I feel like it should've went in an inventory or something. You're allowed to remove things and if you already built and bought it, You should be able to keep it.l. Also, can't wait for more levels. Got the pass for a year and have reached the end...

A neat little game that resembles Fallout Shelter, but with a few key differences. It runs great and doesn't have many problems for a game that just released. Only things I dislike are half of the level up rewards being locked behind the subscription service, and that one poor decision can cause a subject to kill another permanently. Sometimes every option for these sorts of rulings is poor. Add the ability to resurrect them with scrolls or gems. I'd hate a legendary subject to just be deleted.

Fun for a couple days. My main gripe is the lack of connection to the characters. I feel like Fallout Shelter gave enough characters that felt special that you became invested in your shelter. Here, I've got Ulfric but that's about it after a couple days of grinding. Otherwise, it's a fun and beautiful game. I really like the questing feature and Elderscrolls is one of my favorite settings. I think it'd be cool to see a castle attack feature like Fallout has.
