Kingdom Tales: Dragons & Us

On first glance, this looks a bit like settlers. It's not. It feels somewhat like a F2P title that somehow managed to get itself released onto Steam. There's no real fun to be had out of this one, I'm afraid. Don't get me wrong. It's polished, the music is passable and apart from the slightly pathetic dialogue, it certainly seems functional... But the simple fact that the gameplay boils down to "Click here, watch as the same thing that's happened a hundred dozen times happens again, or don't click here and fail the level" really sort of ruins the experience. It claims to be a 'fun time management/strategy game'. It's just a giant time-sink... You can practically smell the skinner box. Don't be fooled by the Settlers-like screenshots. This isn't worth your time. Avoid.

Gameplay is linear and uninspired. It looks nice enough but the whole strategy boils down to clicking on buttons to collect resources, building placement on predefined plots, and resource and time management. The resource gathering forces you to click icons when they appear, that otherwise in most games is automated. You even need to click a button to have them get water when they are thirsty. Enemies are little more than barricades that must be removed by paying a certain amount of resources making what passes for combat feel anticlimatic. In fact beating the levels I did get to left me feeling that way. I just had big desire to progress onward knowing that all that awaited was more resources to click away at, more monsters that would only cost more to defeat, and more buildings that would require unnecessary micromanaging. In fairness, if your looking for something to eat time just slightly funner than staring into empty space, this might work for you. For the rest of us, I'd take a pass.

Kingdom Tales is a casual time and resource management game where you build establishments to earn money and other resources to complete missions. It's rather mediocre but still enjoyable until you grow bored of the rules that only slightly change over the campaign. At least graphics are pretty and atmosphere is nice and fluffy. So, what about the game aspect? Basically, in each mission you'll establish a production cycle that earns you money that is used to build special structures and cut stones (the other resource). Stone is used to build money generating buildings and other structures. Money is generated by clicking icons that pop up when the building has produced a patch of taxes. Then your tax collectors will rush to bring the gold back to the castle. Profit! So the mechanics are very simple and repetitive and approaching dull. Most everything happens with one or two clicks. A naive story of getting friendly with the dragons runs along by completing the missions of each level. Missions range from gathering enough gold to killing all the wild animals and monsters (which simply costs money and/or mana that is a resource unlocked later) to building certain buildings and upgrades. While the mechanics are always the same, they are used in many ways within the story: early on you'll be saving the tree of life, helping some druids and loading up ships for a journey. The full completion of the game takes only several hours: for me this was less than 5. The game is rather unchallenging. There are 9 in-game achievements that would be nice to see on Steam as well, but they are very easy to attain. It's a decent, though rather short time waster. Though I initially recommended the game, I've decided to revoke my recommendation because of the utter repetitive nature of the game that becomes boring half-way through. It was somewhat worth its discounted price though because the story was so cute. if you'd like to test the game out anyway, a demo is available at bigfishgames.com: http://www.bigfishgames.com/download-games/23538/kingdom-tales/index.html

[h1] Kingdom Tales [/h1] Time management game from 2014. In Kingdom Tales, you explore the land, collect, produce, and trade resources, build and repair your subjects' houses and community structures, and work to increase their happiness levels! On your journey, you'll encounter druids, forest fairies, trolls, dragons, and other exciting creatures while racing against the clock. [Abridged - Publisher] It's a time management strategy city-building game. You can ignore the time pressure, but it's still stressful. Because you're busy with a constant supply of food. For your buildings to generate income, they need a constant supply of food, and later, even more. You have to produce and distribute this food, and you have to direct each individual step yourself, with the exception of the well, which produces water automatically. Of course, you have to direct its collection. Of course, no one would think of getting something for themselves when they're hungry or thirsty. However, there is one difference from other games of this type from this publisher. The sawmill is combined with a quarry. Hooray, someone thought this through. Not just huts made of wood, but also houses made of stone. So, get the materials and build tents, yes, tents. Well, of course... that's just the beginning. I played the introduction and it took me half an hour. Hardly any player made it that far; not even 10% played that long, though there were 5 levels. The music is fitting and the graphics are very good. All the text is also in German! Since nothing happens automatically, you're constantly busy resupplying, and that's the opposite of fun. It's a shame, because the game itself is beautifully made but deadly boring. So, if you're interested now, go ahead, but the gameplay is really only for gamers who are completely pain-free. I didn't like it.

[h1] Kingdom Tales [/h1] Zeitmanagment Spiel von 2014. In Kingdom Tales erkundest du das Land, sammelst, produzierst und handelst Ressourcen, baust und reparierst die Häuser und Gemeinschaftsstrukturen deiner Untertanen und arbeitest daran, das Glücksniveau deiner Untertanen zu steigern! Auf deiner Reise triffst du Druiden, Waldfeen, Trolle, Drachen und andere aufregende Kreaturen, während du gegen die Uhr antrittst. [ Gekürzt - Herausgeber] Es ist ein Zeitmanagement-Strategie-Städtebauspiel. Man kann den Zeitdruck ignorieren, dennoch ist es stressig. Weil du mit ununterbrochener Dauerversorgung beschäftigt bist. Damit deine Gebäude Geld abwerfen benötigen sie ununterbrochen Nahrung, später dann noch mehr. Dies musst du produzieren und verteilen, wobei du jeden einzelnen Schritt selbst anweisen musst, mit Ausnahme des Brunnens, dieser Produziert selbstständig Wasser. Das Abholen musst du natürlich Anweisen. Klar niemand käme auf die Idee sich selbst was zu holen, wenn man Hunger oder Durst hat. Es gibt jedoch ein Unterschied zu den anderen Games dieser Art von diesem Herausgeber. Und zwar Ist das Sägewerk mit einem Steinbruch kombiniert. Hurra, da hat jemand mitgedacht. Nicht nur Hütten aus Holz, sondern auch Häuser aus Stein. Also hin das Material holen und Zelte bauen, ja Zelte. Nun ja, klar..., ist halt der Anfang. Ich hab die Einführung gespielt und dafür eine halbe Stunde gebraucht. So weit hat kaum ein Spieler durchgehalten, nicht mal 10% haben so lange gespielt, 5 Level waren das immerhin. Die Musik ist passend und die Grafik ist sehr gut. Alle Texte sind auch in Deutsch! Da nichts automatisch geht, bist du immerzu mit Versorgung beschäftigt und dass ist das Gegenteil von Spaß haben. Schade, denn das Spiel als solches ist allerliebst gemacht aber todlangweilig. Also wenn ihr nun Lust bekommen habt, nur zu, aber das Gameplay ist wirklich nur was für absolut schmerzfreie Gamer. Mir hat es nicht gefallen.

I would not recommend this game for anyone over 8 years old or who has ever played a game of this general type. It is kind of pretty, but what other reviewers have said: there is no game here. If you want a game where no choices are available or want something appropriate for a not-terribly-bright six year old, this might be a good choice.

Easy as a pie, short as your Johnson, pretty good music and sounds. Even though there are A LOT of negative reviews (which I've read after completing the game) I had some fun with the game. No, seriously. It feels like everybody is a winner in Kingdom Tales. The tasks are easy and the time management isn't THAT challenging (compared to other similar games). Strong 6/10 for those of you who want a relaxing clone in this genre. Got it via bundle. No regrets. Cheers!

Surprisingly, I have found myself addicted to this game. It's very simple, yet fun. It doesn't take any skill to play, though. You go through levels, to win the level you build houses and cottages to generate money, which you can then use to build resource buildings. You have an unlimited amount of workers, which makes it too easy, and basically all you do is click. I read somewhere that there were a few glitches in the game, so far I haven't noticed anything except for a typo. (hehe) I give this game an 8.5/10 on the "this is so ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ chill and relaxing" metre.

Vorwort: In "Kingdom Tales" übernimmst Du die Rolle eines unerschrockener Baumeisters. Du musst eine Wirtschaft aufzubauen, die dienlich für die Lösung vielfältiger Aufgaben ist. Denn neben einer gewissen Menge an Geld sind auch ausreichend Vorräte und zufriedene Bewohner gefragt, die der Grundstein für eine florierende Aufbautätigkeit sind. Deshalb muss der Spieler Gegenstände aus dem Weg räumen und Ruinen abtragen, Wohnhäuser bauen und Produktionsstätten errichten. Aber auch magische Gebäude werden gebraucht, die Magie produzieren, welche für die Heilung verfluchter Gebäude und das Entzaubern von verwandelten Arbeitern notwendig ist. Denn egal, in welchen der Level sich der Spieler auch bewegt, immer wieder wird er von fiesen Hexenmeistern überrascht, die zerstörerische Flüche aussprechen, um die Produktion zum Erliegen zu bringen. Die Optik des Spiels kommt mit bunten Farben, vielfältig gestalteten Landschaften und wechselende Figuren daher. Du reist durch verschiedene Landschaften wie z.B. märchenhafte Wälder, heiligen Seen, gigantische Bergketten oder auch durch sagenumwobene Täler. Deine Aufage besteht darin, dass Du immer wieder deinen Ökonomen losschickst, der in den Häusern die Steuern eintreibt. Desweiteren muss er sich um Rohstoffnachschub und wichtige Nahrungsmittel kümmern und Sorge dafür tragen, dass Magier und Helden ihre Aufgaben erfüllen. Ein Spiel, das neben einer geschickten Einteilung vorhandener Ressourcen auch Schnelligkeit und einen gewissen Überblick vom Spieler verlangt, dafür aber viele kurzweilige Stunden am PC beschert. Pro: + 45 abwechslungsreiche Level, die es zu meistern gilt + eine Vielzahl von Gebäuden, um dein Königreich zu erweitern + gute Grafik und Soundtrack + Einsteigerfreundlich Kontra: - Spielzeit con ca. 6 Stunden Fazit: "Kingdom Tales" ist ein hübsch anzusehendes und leicht zu spielendes Aufbau- und Strategiespiel, dass sich für alle Altersklassen gut eignet.

If you buy indie bundles, you often get games you would not normally buy, Kingdom Tales surely is one of those games. Before playing, I pretty much knew what to expect. Kingdom Tales is a casual strategy game, you would expect on Facebook (but without the real payments ofcourse) or any browser game site. It's obvious, the developers targeted a young audience, so it may not be fair to review this as an adult. Kingdom Tales looks cute but other then that the game only consists of clicking on icons. There's no difficulty and does't require thinking. A lot of languages are included in the game, so if you got some young kids, they might have a blast with this game.

Mais sobre ele (e outros jogos) aqui: https://youtu.be/T3_xe5u0bE0 Kingdom Tales é um jogo de administração de recursos BEM repetido que só fui até o fim porque estava obstinado em fazer 100%, o jogo têm 45 levels e a cada level um novo prédio, desafio ou upgrade é adicionado e você tem que aprender a lidar com ele porque dali em diante isto fara parte do jogo, tornando um pouquinho mais complexo cada vez que você avança. Mesmo assim o jogo é muito simples e vai ficar repetitivo rápido até pra quem gosta do gênero, então não recomendo comprar pelo valor cheio (acho que peguei em algum bundle), por outro lado não encontrei bugs e o jogo até têm uma história simples e têm desafio extra de terminar os levels dentro de um tempo determinado, mas só recomendo o jogo mesmo porque ele é funcional e entrega o que promete. -------------------------------------- Kingdom Tales is a QUITE repeated resource management game that I only went to the end because I was determined to do 100%, the game has 45 levels and at each level a new building, challenge or upgrade is added and you have to learn to deal with it with him because from now on this will be part of the game, making it a little more complex each time you advance. Even so, the game is very simple and will get repetitive quickly, even for those who like the genre, so I don't recommend buying it at full price (I think I got it in a bundle), on the other hand I didn't find any bugs and the game even has a simple story and They have the extra challenge of finishing the levels within a set time, but I only recommend the game because it is functional and delivers what it promises.
