Manor Lords isn’t even out of early access yet, but developer Slavic Magic is already asking players to stop cheesing. In an attempt to game the system, content creators and journalists who had early access began building walls around their cities using the castle planner tool, breaking the game.
Avoid These 5 BIG Mistakes in Manor Lords
Taking the sandbox game concept to the next level, players used castle building tools in a way the developer hadn’t considered. Castle walls shouldn’t go around the town, which creates logistical problems for villagers. But it also confuses raiders, which is a good reason to look for a loophole.
