Each in the currency that store quoted — not converted: the gap between two rows is the publisher's pricing, not an exchange rate.
Discounts
Every price cut of more than 20% we have observed, in each market that quoted one, with this game's chart position on either side of it. These are episodes, not a model: a sale is one event, and one event cannot tell you what the next one will do.
Reviews, worldwide (the counter carries no country): 2.29/day in the week to Aug 22 → 3/day in the week after.
For scale, across Steam · Top Sellers · Brazil over the last 30 days: the 23 chart moves that followed a price cut of more than 20% went a median of 14 places towards #1, and the 2,515 moves with no price cut behind them went 2 away. One store, one chart, one country — it is the only place we have enough observations to say even that.
Prices outside the United States have been collected since 6 August 2026 and chart positions since 19 July 2026, so a cut older than that has no market to compare and a market that joined later has no history yet. Nothing here is converted between currencies.
About
Old World is a historical strategy game where you lead your empire through multiple generations, building a grand legacy to last beyond your own years. This is an era of great leaders, from the revered to the feared. Which will you be?
Marry for politics, raise your heirs, and manage your relationship with the families of your kingdom. In the fast and furious world of kings and queens, family matters.
Each of the 7 kingdoms has four noble families that provide various benefits when put in charge of your cities.
Manage family ties through events, actions, and marriages to keep them happy and reap additional benefits. Upset them, or make them too powerful, and you risk their ire.
Maintain a strong family unit, or distract yourself with more illicit adventures.
The world is full of great characters with distinct personalities, strengths, and weaknesses. Use them to forge your kingdom, defend your borders, and build ties with other leaders.
Seek out and recruit famed warriors, philosophers, builders, and more. Have them tutor your children, lead your armies, and further your reign.
Different personality archetypes allow your court members to perform different tasks in similar roles. Find the right combinations to take full advantage of governors, diplomats, spymasters, and even your spouse.
Characters develop new personalities and traits over time, growing old, gaining experience, and finally falling ill and passing away, leaving room for the next generation.
Unsettled tribes, barbarian marauders, and remnants of previous cultures are all waiting in the vast unexplored wilderness.
Discover artifacts and great heroes of the past at ruins scattered across the map.
Experience over 3,000 unique events inspired by history and mythology.
Contact with foreign dignitaries triggers event chains, stories, and courtroom drama.
Pursue ambitions and legacies related to conquest, development, faith, and more.
Historically inspired scenarios, weekly challenge games, and a choice between randomly generated and handcrafted maps to explore. Lead Carthage to victory as Hannibal in the Punic Wars, hold your own against Barbarian Hordes, or compete against other players in tackling fictional scenarios.
Why do things the way they've always been done? Old World brings a new take to key elements of the 4X strategy genre:
Go beyond the traditional resources. Buildings are made of wood and stone, not "industry." Population doesn't grow off "food" alone.
Orders are a resource shared across your realm. Instead of moving every unit once per turn, each unit can be moved multiple times until fatigued or Orders are depleted.
Technological advancement is not predetermined. Randomization helps keep technology trees feeling fresh with each new playthrough.
Quality of life improvements, such as the ability to undo mistaken commands and nested tooltips, ensure you're always making informed decisions.
Play with friends in countless multiplayer modes — from hotseat, to asynchronous, to cloud play.
Experience a Grammy-nominated soundtrack blending Arabic music with contemporary influences.
Mods further open up infinite options for new worlds, empires, and dynasties — inspired by our real world, and by works of fiction as well.

Reviews
This game is similar to Civilization, but with a few twists that make it more compelling, particularly the family/dynasty system and random events. I like that it is more focused on the ancient tech era. The music from different cultures is enjoyable. There are enough tracks that it doesn't become too repetitive. The AI seems competent. There are a lot of options for customizing the game difficulty. The DLC's provide some nice additions in content, but the base game is plenty fine on its own and a good starting point. I typically only play through most Civ-like games once (since Civ 1) because the end game becomes tedious, but I have enjoyed playing through several times in Old World. It helps that there are different victory conditions that seem to fulfill usually around 100 to 150 turns on default settings for larger maps. My only complaint is that the game seems to start lagging somewhat in the late game as it needs to keep track of more events, units, or whatever. It's not bad enough to be much of an issue, but I could see it being significant if you go for total world domination victory condition in larger map sizes.

Amazing strategy game, great for a gamer that likes to spend hours playing this kind of games
An upgrade from Civ at first then not. The game is buggy/rigged like naval combat against AI i'm about to win only for 6 ships to spawn suddenly and destroy my ships. Its over complicated so much that even the tutorial says it won't teach me everything. All your cities will always be unhappy, which drops production.
absolute gem of a game. love the mechanics that keep everything in check and prevents a snowball effect towards the end-game that such strategy titles usually suffer from

Ich bin Gelegenheitsspieler, spiele 3 -4 h die Wochen. Das Spiel sah vielversprechend aus kann aber gar nicht bei der Stange halten...
Hyvin toimii, välillä saattaa hieman kaatuilla. Erittäin immersiivinen, diplomatia eri perhedynastioiden kanssa on mielenkiintoinen haaste ja pelin tarinalliset elementit toimivat suurimmilta osiltaan. Mielenkiintoinen peli kaiken kaikkiaan.
This game is fantastic! So many mechanics interact with each other harmonically. Old World gives me that Civ IV vibe with Civ V graphics, that "One more turn" addict behaviour.

Quite love the blend of Crusader Kings inter-personal focus on the characters mixed with Civ's grand strategy, but the multiplayer didn't work at all when I tried it with friends. Not only is the UI clunky, we could never get an instance with all 3 of us in a lobby, which severely brings it down as that's kinda all I want from these styles of games.
