About
Ah, my glorious kingdom! A land where peasants toil, miners dig, and knights train... but only when I look at them! My gaze is law—progress thrives where I watch, but the moment I turn away? Laziness! Chaos! I must choose wisely: should I focus on the fields for food, the mines for riches, or the barracks for defense? With resources, I can even expand my all-seeing gaze, ensuring my kingdom flourishes… and that no one slacks off under my rule!
Water, wheat, stone, coal, silver—every resource fuels my empire! Farms feed my people, mines fund my ambitions, and workshops forge mighty defenses. Shall I invest in archers, reinforce the walls, or harness magic? Even my castle needs repairs when the enemy strikes! Every decision shapes my reign, and only a well-managed kingdom will survive the storm.
Rulership is no easy task! Each land presents new trials, from cursed cemeteries to infernal depths, forcing me to adapt. Yet every defeat is a lesson! As a true roguelite, my efforts grant permanent upgrades, unlocking new abilities, stronger defenses, and powerful strategies for my next reign. A true king doesn’t just rule—he evolves, forging an unstoppable legacy with each attempt!
Each battlefield hides unpredictable threats—enemies are led by unexpected Generals, demanding unique tactics to defeat. Want to conquer them all? You’ll need multiple runs! But fear not! My royal council aids me with cavalry masters, arcane sages, and cunning strategists. With their wisdom—and my unwavering gaze—victory is inevitable!

在当下时代很少能遇到玩法新颖的游戏，游戏本身质量上乘，要素较多但并不是很复杂，玩的越多越有新的理解。游戏性非常强，不要被他的像素风所迷惑或者劝退，唯一有点难评的是局外解锁需要的硬币太多，但这也是很多肉鸽游戏的通病。瑕不掩瑜，大力推荐！夏促入手简直赚爆了！
This game really surprised me, I thought the central mechanic would get stale quite quickly but it's an interesting premise holding together a solid game with quite a lot of content. There's lots of different kings you can play as and each of them feel quite different as well which adds a good amount of variability. Even if you only try each king once, that's still loads of hours of content for the price point. I will note that the game has a tonne of meta-progression elements. I really like meta progression personally so this was an upside for me, but other people might find it frustrating that you essentially have quite an incomplete experience until you've played the game at least 3-4 times.

Every market we collect.

Too few observations to say whether a discount moves this store's chart at all: across the last 30 days Steam · Top Sellers · Poland has just 18 day-to-day chart moves that followed a price cut, against 2,498 that did not. We are publishing the count instead of a direction — 20 is the fewest we will draw a conclusion from, and price collection outside the United States began on 6 August 2026.
Prices outside the United States have been collected since 6 August 2026 and chart positions since 19 July 2026, so a cut older than that has no market to compare and a market that joined later has no history yet. Nothing here is converted between currencies.
