At first this game feels incredibly simple. You're just moving around in a pixel 2d world riding your horse, throwing money, building your kingdom... and then it suddenly blows up. You have to manage resources desperately, defend your kingdom at each night, and rush to rebuild each morning, as tension eats at you since each night anything could happen and your entire kingdom could collapse.

Great graphics style and atmosphere, very simple, yet addictive. It's a strategy game without all the complex sides.

Has some quirks but overall a very fun gameplay loop. There is no tutorial so I would just advise new players to be very vigilant in observing the NPCs behaviors to see what each does. I give it a 6/10,

This game is too tedious for me. The map is huge and movement is annoyingly slow. In addition, the "AI" is crazy barebones and stupid. I had archers peacefully coexisting with rabbits instead of hunting them. I saw builders taking a break while my catapults at the front were unmanned. After losing a wall, an archer tower became an outpost far outside my castle and lured away archers one-by-one, decimating my army. Yet, archer towers safely within my castle stayed staffed forever, binding countless archers. Sometimes, one side of my town has 20 archers, the other one none. Don't expect them to redistribute. An archer born to defend the eastern wall won't even dare to walk to the other end of town.

Sure, it's possible to play around all of these flaws and you can call this a skill issue if you want, but it's simply not fun. If I lose the game on day 35 (which takes roughly 3 hours to reach), I want it to be due to my own errors, not due to the above mentions AI quirks.

My conclusion is that this game would have greatly benefitted from using the 4th arrow key. Yes, making a game controllable with only 3 keys is a nice study in minimalism, but from my POV, it failed. Let me use the 4th key to:
- open/close archer towers and farms
- pick which wall should be defended on each side

With this tiny change and some fixes for the AI bugs, I would have liked the game despite its slow pace. But in its current state, I can't recommend it.

My friend who I play Counter Strike 2 with said if I post a review on this game and it gets 5000 likes and 5000 Awards that he will buy me a RTX 3080 and 2 Kilos of The lamb ham. So I'm just gonna leave this here Help a brotha ~

This one is just a no. I would advice you to just start with kingdom New Lands, because I got so irritated by this game and it felt really boring most of the time.

Kingdom New Lands does give you a bit more of a objective, with more content and better explanation. I would recommend if you want to pick up one of the games to start there.

Good

As with all other things in life, the solution is more archers
