As someone who absolutely loves management games, I was a bit skeptical when it came to Elder Scrolls: Castles, as I didn't know if I could expect the same great gameplay that Fallout Shelter offers. But to my surprise, it exceeded my expectations.
I'm offering you some helpful Elder Scrolls: Castles tips to help you get started and to help you build a dynasty to be remembered by. In this guide, you'll discover how to increase your population, how to quickly gather resources, and everything you need to know to expand your castle and kingdom.
Elder Scrolls: Castles is different from other Elder Scrolls games. Here you can completely put the battle aspect aside and focus entirely on the management part of the game: the castles.

However, if you take your time and do all your daily tasks, you will be able to progress at a good pace. The only thing you need is consistency. If you really want to dedicate time to ESC, you need to play every day and dedicate at least 30 minutes to the game.
