From a campfire to a citadel
Kingsreach is a 3D medieval city builder and kingdom simulation. You start with a Great Hall and a handful of villagers. Place huts, lumberjacks, farms and sawmills and watch your people carry the logs home, tend the fields and go to bed at dusk. Grow a camp into a walled citadel, keep your people fed and happy through the seasons, and raise towers, barracks and gates before the goblins land.
What makes it different
- A village that lives. Every villager has a name, a face, a trade, a home and a daily routine. They fell trees, cut stone, mine ore, hunt, fish, farm, bake and brew, and they fight when the raiders come.
- A real economy. Wheat to flour to bread, barley to beer, ore to metal. A market buys and sells every good, and your soldiers need metal from an armory to fight at full strength.
- Place anything freely. Drag roads, fences and walls, rotate buildings and watch the ground level itself under every foundation. Dozens of buildings, each with five levels from thatched hut to legendary hall.
- Seasons, weather and night. Blossom in spring, harvest in autumn, snow and ice in winter, rain and fog, glowing windows and fireflies after dark.
- Raids that matter. War drums at dusk, then goblins, orcs and trolls land on the shore. Towers, archers on the walls, knights, catapults and gates hold them back; burning buildings are a real loss.
- Four biomes and any land. Meadow, frozen Frostmark, Ember Badlands and the Mire of Whispers swamp with its spiders and snakes. Islands or open plains and mountains, maps of 128, 256 or 512 tiles.
