9 Kings

8.2/10 I really enjoyed how 9 Kings gives each king their own quests and scenarios. They helped me unlock achievements while learning each king’s mechanics, strengths, and preferred method of committing medieval tax fraud. The quests gave me clear goals while I levelled up my kings and unlocked new perks, which was a huge part of the appeal—especially while chasing a 100% completion run. The builds can get completely unhinged in the best possible way. One minute, a thousand troops are moving at lightning speed; the next, your ballista-riding boar is deleting the Champion of Nothing from existence. The game constantly encourages you to experiment until you discover a build so broken it feels less like strategy and more like an exploit the developers forgot to remove. Watching the screen dissolve into absolute chaos while pretending it was all part of the plan is incredibly satisfying. I haven’t tried multiplayer yet because I was busy going for 100% completion and apparently abandoning all other responsibilities. Still, 9 Kings is chaotic, rewarding, and dangerously good at convincing you that the next ridiculous build will definitely be your last. Final score: 8.2/10 — came for the strategy, stayed for the weaponized boar.

Скриптовый однообразный геймплей. Что в одиночном режиме, что в сетевом, хотите составить интересную стратегию против игроков (если это действительно игроки)? Нет, нельзя, либо ваншот, либо -рейтинг, а в одиночном режиме я вообще не понимаю по какому принципу качается бот, сначала у него ничего нет, но буквально через пару битв с одним и тем же противником подряд у него появляется несколько десятков воинов с увеличенным хм и уроном, в то время как я поставил 2 строения ._.

Macht einfach bock, kommt wohl demnächst auf fürs Handy für unterwegs.

The complexity of the strategies in this game is insane. I'm always caught off guard by what works and doesn't in this game. The game scales up so quickly at the end always taking me off guard.

Great little game - but after a while things just stop scaling with you. Once I hit about 2E+8 (which I think is the 32 bit integer cap?) enemy health stopped going up... damage itself caps at 1E+300, so there's a large gap there. But, figuring out how to get there in the first place is the game :D

played 270+ hours, completed all achives and tasks. very good game. waiting for 1.0 version
