If you complete the level before the sun sets (shown by the meter in the top left of the screen), your future castle will get an upgrade. Most of the time you'll naturally accomplish them as you move around the map and explore every turn in the road.
As with most resource management/building games, these tend to be fairly simple. It's an excellent addition to the game that lends a more arcadey feel to the experience.Įach level has a small set of goals displayed at the top of the screen. These bonuses include a temporary new worker, faster worker movements, bonus resources, and much more. This is your bonus meter, a neat little device that allows you to unleash a special power when it's charged. Which building you spend your precious wood constructing first is all part of the strategy.Īt the bottom of the screen you'll notice a meter that fills up as time goes by. Upgrading your cabin allows you to utilize additional workers, an invaluable resource that lets you do multiple tasks as the same time. Sawmills, for example, give one wood every game minute, while farms do the same for food. Resources can be gathered by picking up random drops from around the map or by constructing specific buildings that bestow resources every turn. Making sure you have enough of each, especially early in each level, is the key to survival. Later, you'll have a third resource to think about: gold. Some of these jobs require wood, and workers always need food to do their duty. They can remove obstructions from the path, gather resources, and make repairs. As their name suggests, workers do all the work, dashing across the cobblestone paths at the slightest click from your mouse. My Kingdom for the Princess uses a simple resource loop to ensure the game stays dynamic.
It's a fairy tale beginning that depends upon you for the fairy tale end. And King Sigmund has promised you a castle of your own if you're successful. Enter you, young knight, tasked with escorting the princess across the land, repairing the kingdom as you go. The Princess must get back to her kingdom, but with the roads and villages destroyed, it's nearly impossible to travel. To make matters worse, Helen's father was struck by lightning and now hangs on to his life by a thin strand. While Princess Helen was visiting her uncle, King Sigmund, a monstrous tornado rocked the land, destroying all but his castle and waking the cruel dragon Firemouth. Don't let the fairy tale setting and simple premise fool you, My Kingdom for the Princess is not a simple kids' game. Mixing elements from simulation titles as well as borrowing from the time management genre, the game puts a big casual gameplay hat over itself and delivers a deceptively linear resource management experience with a surprising amount of strategy. My Kingdom for the Princess is a casual resource management/building game from Nevosoft.
