Game of Thrones is an HBO series that tells the story of a medieval country’s civil war.

Is Game of Thrones difficult to understand?
Yeah, it is hard to understand as there are a lot of characters and a lot of backstory. Also it’s a pretty different world.
What is the purpose of the wall in Game of Thrones?
The Wall is reported to be over 700 feet tall and is made of solid ice. It was supposedly constructed using both magic and mundane means some eight millennia ago in the aftermath of the Long Night to defend the realm against the White Walkers who dwell in the far north, though they are now considered myths by most.
Is Game of Thrones worth the read?
It’s a proper TV show, and it’s a lot of fun especially for the casual viewer. But if you’ve read the books, they’re definitely going to get on your nerves, and the plot changes will really irritate you.
Why you should read A Song of Ice and Fire?
It’s incredible to read and unlike so much fantasy that is quite heavily directed by a much larger force than one individual’s motivation. There are characters in this book you will love, some you will hate, others you will love then hate then love then hate again. No one is a hero.
Is got watchable?
Game of Thrones is definitely a show worth watching. It is intense, bloody, political, and dramatic. Don’t get too attached to the characters, however, since every episode is a major risk for your favorites. But, since it can take up a lot of your time due to its long episodes, maybe it is not worth watching twice.
Is Game of Thrones worth watching after the ending?
Yes. It is a good story regardless of how it ends. The first 4 seasons were good, partly because George R R Martin was there to write some episodes and help the show-makers. But after GRRM left, because the show-makers were making changes GRRM really didn’t like, the quality of the show went down.

How does Game of Thrones compare to Oz?
On any Oz episode, anyone you’d known or loved could get a shiv or die in a prison riot. Game of Thrones seemed even more free form than that, especially when I started reading the novels. More major characters face the butcher block in Storm of Swords, Feast for Crows and Dance with Dragons.
