Bought this game because of the HBO series and the books. I enjoyed them both immensely.
The game looks pretty good though I have yet to run it. Give me a couple of weeks to pull together the group. Of course there is the combat system, but there is also the social intrigue system. Both play out pretty much using the same sort of mechanics.
The game uses a point buy system to build your character and the house you will play. Your character will not be able to do everything, but they can do some things well, even very well if you don't try to spread yourself out too thin.
Though I have not played in twenty years, I do GM games with a similar feel to this game. This is the first time I have even considered playing a character.
