Have you tried a different browser? We haven't changed this game for months...

Thanks for the thorough feedback.

You are right that this version will not get further fixes.

What you're observing, characters dying after events (unless they died in the event), is not because they were in the event, but because a timespan of however many years has passed in which they would have died anyway.

We can't let characters die of old age during events without breaking the game. So obviously, they have to die after that. There was a version where this was not done, with the consequence that if you kept your characters occupied enough (and random death outcomes didn't get them), they could essentially live forever.

So there is no doom loop; it's not spontaneous death. Use the character, don't use them, they will be dead by year x either way. How long they actually survive is based on their health stat. And the AI Krankhaus characters are kept close to their original genes, meaning many of them have high health (and those who don't, you won't notice, because they're dead). If you play them yourself, it's easy to lose the health genes, since you pair them off with other houses that don't have them. If you don't specifically select for high health (or get unlucky), the lifespan will diminish within a few generations.

You could give the demo on Steam a shot. It's not a development version and a lot of stuff is fixed / different.

Thanks for the info!

We're working on it! If you want to follow the process, you can join our Discord server or wishlist Noble on Steam :)

There should be a tiny close button next to it.

I can't reproduce this issue. When does this happen? What browser and OS are you using?

If you like the concept, you might also like the demo of the latest version on Steam. It's got completely different bugs :)

Thanks!

Glad you like it! Using it for a TTRPG is a neat idea. We have a newer version available through Patreon. We added the overview at the end of the game feature in the newer version as well.

We have a early access Steam version now which you can become tester of via our new Patreon site: https://patreon.com/noblegame

It might help to marry them younger and to make sure who they marry is also not too old. Age is both responsible for random death / sickness and low fertility, so I'd say that's your number one thing to look out for.

Note that you can close the development console.

Can you maybe explain what the issue is with right-clicking instead of left-clicking?

Sorry to hear it's too difficult. It's not too late to join the Discord and get some tips from other players.

We're also working on a newer version as well, which is rebalanced quite a bit - it is available to our patrons on Patreon. If that's interesting for you, we're having a discount action right now, and you can get permanent access for less than 1 USD.

The game is not finished yet and we will keep exploring options. We certainly don't aim to be a Crusader Kings clone!
For future additions to the game we will explore different houses with different difficulties and most probably a house that feels like a creative mode where it more closely resembles the first version with a very relaxing core experience to play around with.
Might that be interesting for you?

It's all about timing. It might help to pause the game as much as possible and taking it slow, so you can assign them when one of the events finishes.

If you send someone to help with the sickness/robbery, the event is over quicker.

That does sound confusing indeed. Odds are the son is a bastard (no offense). Not sure what happened with the marriage, though. Possibly you've stumbled upon a well-hidden bug / unintended feature, or there's a perfectly reasonable explanation. Either way, don't panic.

For a future patch for the new version, we will look into something like a gravestone behind the image so they don't get forgotten. The Steam Key for the newest version is now available through our Patreon if you are interested.

Thank you for your feedback. The project is still being worked on and we have an early access version available through Patreon.

If you have more information on the console error logs we can look into that! Thanks for playing

Right-click messages instead of left. You're welcome.

Coronations are very deadly. Enter at your own peril/perish.

It's a mystery. Maybe they all fell in the grave...

Thanks! There is a newer version available. You can find more info on the Discord server

Thanks, it's good to know that that's something you would like. We'll weigh it against all the other things we'll want to add in the future.

Also, thanks for reporting the bug.

Relationship is actually going to the next tier (and you unlock a new event with them). We'll make it clearer in the future. Thanks for the feedback!

Very cool! Cute graphics too

Thanks for playing and see you on the Discord!

Very well-made game. You should rethink the font use in the game logo, though. It looks really out of place and made me initially skip the game.

Really nice, relaxing game. Love it. 

If you have any ideas or suggestions where/how the new version should be simpler, please let us know. Maybe there's something we can do about it.

That sounds really sad. I can't help you, unfortunately, since we're no longer updating this version. You can, however, play our new version if you join our Discord server (link on main page). It plays quite differently, though.

Very very impressive!

I don't understand your reasons for avoiding Discord, but we really appreciate your enthusiasm and creative ideas.
However, we keep all game discussions in our Discord server for a few important reasons - it helps us track feedback better, and more importantly, it ensures everyone is familiar with the current version of the game. The version here is quite different from our latest build, which is available to play via our Discord server.
I'd love to hear your thoughts once you've had a chance to try the current version. The Discord invite link is right on the game page whenever you're ready to join us.

That must be the longest game I've ever seen. Congratulations!

That's easily fixed. Just go to the Discord website, create an account, and then use the invite link on the game page.

Thanks for sharing your ideas. On our Discord we have a section for feature suggestions where we'd love to discuss this with you.

That's pretty odd. Even behind a VPN I never have issues with Discord invites (while other platforms throw a hissy fit). 

But I'm glad you figured it out! 

Oh, I see. That was from before we even released the alpha version with events.
But it still holds - we can't guarantee there ever will be a full version. However, we'll try our best to create one.

I've just checked, it's a link that doesn't expire, and just yesterday someone used it. If it helps, here's a new one that will be valid for a week. 

I don't understand your second question. Where did you read that?

The version with events is playable via our Discord server.

That's a lot!

If it doesn't work out of the box, you might not be using a browser that is supported by the Unity player. What browser and operating system version are you using?
