Make Your Kingdom Reviews

No update in over a year sadly but has a good idea behind it. Many bugs as expected of an alpha stage game and doesn't have much content. I don't recommend anyone buy it as it looks to be dead in its development phase.

I really like the concept for this game. It looks good and has decent mechanics. But wow is the ai terrible. Controlling one of your people is basically required in this game, since I can't expect any of them to do anything except work in the buildings. I find it was at its worst with the farm. My crops would be sitting there with max wheat, both the sheep farm and mill completely empty, and the people just... wouldn't deliver it. I also constantly found them stuck on buildings and, in one case, a mountain that wasn't even near a road. I also have some problems with the building aspect of the game, like how deleting roads doesn't actually remove the texture, leaving you with a grey patch forever haunting you if ever you change plans. I also have some minor nitpicks, like how you can't destroy and replace a building without waiting for the admittedly fun explosion to end, as well as the occasional random explosion of logs that will rain from the sky. This game is in early access and it really needs to be marked as such, because I cannot imaging this was the intended final product for a game with this much promise.

It's a mediocre kingdom builder, worse than dozens of similarly priced games out there like Kingdoms & Castles or Kingdoms Reborn. The main reason that I call it mediocre is because there's really no information given to you by the game. How many people should a building have as workers? How many low production buildings do I need to feed a refined production, and how many refined production do I need for my citizens? Is my city falling into disrepair because I don't have enough architecture buildings, because I don't have enough workers in the architecture buildings, because I don't have enough planks to support repairs, or because I don't have enough wood to support the plank factories? No clear information is given, you're just kind of expected to watch all of the numbers over time and know what the ratios are for buildings. The thing that's supposed to make this game different is that you can control people yourself to do work, but the controls for doing that are iffy. I got stuck a lot, and in several cases I couldn't access the place I was supposed to drop materials off at or help with construction at.

A fun building simulator with unique graphics. Of course, I do not like cubic graphics, but here it is tolerable. We build mines, add resources, build our kingdom. There is a change of day and night. You can also switch to 3rd person mode and start hunting for animals.

This game is abandoned. It had potential but there are too many bugs to enjoy any of the game play. DO NOT BUY.

I love the fact that you can play as one of the settlers - it’s a small touch, but definitely makes this game more enjoyable. Sometimes you get a really beautiful view walking through your town (even though it’s just a low poly game and graphics are pretty simple). Overall I like it, though there were a few bugs and optimization is still much needed.

This would be an easy yes to a great medieval city builder. But then the earthquake happens. I can't defend myself against it. I can't interact with it in any way other than cleaning up the mess. Random events that stop you from playing and make you want to ragequit should not be in the game. It would be a different story if there was an extra resource that made my structures resistant to quakes. Or if having extra architects made your buildings safe against quakes. I do not mind the orcs. They steal my stuff and destroy buildings but i can DO SOMETHING against them. I can fight or build walls. Produce weapons and make guards. These are my thoughts and whingy noices for now.

Had I known this game would be ditched in this state for another project I would never of bought it. It is in a terrible state and its been almost of year of silence. This is basically an Alpha game at best. Wait until updates appear after this review to even consider buying it.

I really enjoy these games, been looking for a good city-sim with combat and defense building. This one is very fun and is promising after fixes and updates. Pros: You get to run around your town as the king. The combat/defense system is interesting and different then most sims that do not offer this threat system. Personally enjoy the art style Cons: The AI is very buggy, sometimes they get stuck and wont do anything. The interface is terrible compared to other games in this genre. Almost no ability to fine tune production and task management besides the "priority" list that seems more like a please 'think about working on this' rather then 'focus on this'. Maybe I'm doing something wrong when i'm creating my kingdom but it just seems like the AI has a mind of their own and hardly care about the priority list. I just think a better system for carrying out work and setting tasks would be nice as the current system seems very dull and lackluster.

Very nice little survival strategy game. Entertaining gameplay, but for me one minus is too simple graphics and textures. Buildings are sometimes indistinguishable from each other. But overall the game is good.
