Luckily, Masters of Albion is already looking like a treat to play, even if it\u2019s not been given a release date yet. Gamescom\u2019s Opening Night Live event hosted a variety of game announcements, from Borderlands 4 to a new Sniper Elite, but nothing shocked the gaming community more than when Peter Molyneux walked on stage and announced Masters of Albion. This city-building God game set in Albion (although apparently, it\u2019s not the Albion from Fable) is already winning the hearts of players, and plenty of people are already prepping to dive in. So, to quench your thirst for playing God (probably not advised in the real world) we\u2019ve taken a look through Molyneux\u2019s older work and other strategy titles to bring you a list of the best games like Masters of Albion that you can play right now. Fabledom \u2013 The confusingly named city builder Molyneux is best known for his work on Fable, which is arguably what makes Fabledom such a good game, even if it does have a confusing name. It\u2019s not set in Albion, and it\u2019s got nothing to do with the Fable games. Instead, this cozy city-builder is more about the storybook version of fables rather than the heroic battles, heartbreak, and magic. Set in medieval times (just like Masters of Albion) players are tasked with creating, and managing a small town or city depending on their success. It\u2019s a visually stunning adventure and will perfectly tide over those building and God management desires. Fable \u2013 Because everyone needs to play it once You can\u2019t really write a list of the best games to play while waiting for Masters of Albion without suggesting Fable. I mean sure, the primary argument is just, that everyone should play a Fable game at least once in their gaming careers, but it\u2019s still sound! Either way, you get to explore the real Albion (he really does like that name doesn\u2019t he?), try your hand at a stellar RPG, and even enjoy being as evil as you want. Just know, that the repercussions and consequences are pretty brutal. Dungeon Keeper \u2013 An oldie but a goldie Dungeon Keeper may be an older game, released in 1997 (sorry to those born then or before) but it\u2019s arguably one of Peter Molyneux\u2019s best titles. This strategy adventure is extremely satisfying to play and lets you be God to tons of minions and evil creatures. Whether it\u2019s Dungeons Keeper 1 or 2, if you\u2019re looking for a retro (yes 1997 is retro now, it\u2019s been 27 years) adventure before heading into a Pete classic, then this is the one for you. Civ 5 or 6 \u2013 The King of God games Civilization 5 or 6 (both are equally good) are fantastic strategy games where you set out to take over the world. It\u2019s arguably the game that feels most similar to Masters of Albion. This top-down turn-based adventure pits you against the world\u2019s greatest leaders, meaning you have to use your brain, diplomacy, and of course, a few (hopefully short) wars here and there to defeat them and protect your land.. How you conquer the world is up to you but if you\u2019re looking for something like Masters of Albion, then the Civ series is waiting. Manor Lords \u2013 Looking for Medieval? If the time period is what drew you to Masters of Albion, then Manor Lords is the game for you. Just like Pete\u2019s new game, Manor Lords has city building, real-time tactics, intense battles, and all the economic and social problems you\u2019re looking for (not much of an escape is it?). Manor Lords feels like the game most similar to Master of Albion, given you can play at ground level, craft cities, battle enemies, and really just do whatever you want, all in a similar time period. Despite being in early access, Manor Lords is well worth a try. Kingdom Come: Deliverance \u2013 Two upcoming games for the price of one By trying out Kingdom Come: Deliverance, you\u2019ll basically be getting hyped for two upcoming games, all for the price of one (well, not if you buy both games when they release). Kingdom Come: Deliverance boasts some epic fighting, cutscenes, and just the kind of medieval RPG you\u2019ll get completely lost in. Think Witcher, Fable, Skyrim, and Manor Lords all in one. You\u2019ve got the epic battles of Witcher, the style of Fable and Skyrim, and the time period\/worldbuilding of Manor Lords. Just make sure you prepare for the fact that there\u2019s a second one coming in February 2025. Ultimately, despite Pete\u2019s rocky past, Masters of Albion looks like a ton of fun for all. Whether you\u2019re into cooking, city building, playing God, or just the setting, you\u2019re bound to enjoy its gameplay (hopefully). But, until then, there\u2019s plenty you can try out. Black &#038; White \u2013 Masters of Albion\u2019s predecessor If enjoying a God game is your main aim with Masters of Albion then Black &#038; White should be on your list. This is arguably one of Pete\u2019s most popular games (aside from Fable) and manages to push the envelope on the God game style many know and love. Many consider it a great mixture between the styles of Age of Empires in the sense that you build epic civilizations, but the stark similarities between Black &#038; White and Masters of Albion are certainly intense. Or, just keep an eye out for more Gamescom announcements just in case something else catches your eye.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Games like Masters of Albion that you can play right now Dexerto \/ Lionhead StudiosMasters of Albion is offering Peter Molyneux a chance at gaming redemption after a series of controversies and misplaced promises forced him out of the spotlight for years.
