Amazing gameplay, there are a lot of things you can focus on while playing Stronghold Kingdoms and that's good. You can be aggressive and conquer or be more diplomatic and chose your alliances and build connections inside the world via factions and groups. Even if someone takes over all your villages and you have to start from the beginning it's not a big deal, as long as you know the basics you can get what you lost in no time. Overall this is a great game with many things to discover as you play, you can go at your own pace and build great medieval villages and castles.

Don't get disillusioned by believing this game is p2w. First of all there is no 'winning' in this game. At the end of the day this is a castle simulator. If you're paying money to enjoy a building a virtual village and its castle then the problem is with you. I only ever bought one premium token because you won't need more than one after building up your village. Second, Join a faction. Preferably one with a house. They are always in need of 'farmer' players who basically enjoy the simulation aspect of the game rather than the pvp. In return for sending goods to other player in need in the faction, they will protect you from invasions and help you build up your villages. Lastly, watch online tutorials to learn the meta of the game since the game tutorial is rubbish

Really good, It may take a long time to rank up but ranking up is satisfying and and the grind is not too stressful. Once you get into the grove of balencing, teconolagy,money,happyness and food it is'nt that hard.

Interesting game particularly early in the play. I have not played the new world as yet but I hope it is very different. It is difficult to play unless you pay a lot of money since some players spend fortunes on being the best. It can be slow particularly for research and development and although I understand that they need to keep your interest the speed bit is the worst part. I have played for 2-3 years on most worlds so I like but I have slowed down on spending because longer term not worth it. It is good when you get freebies but !!! 7 out of 10
