Discounts
Every price cut of more than 20% we have observed, in each market that quoted one, with this game's chart position on either side of it. These are episodes, not a model: a sale is one event, and one event cannot tell you what the next one will do.

About
Ah, my glorious kingdom! A land where peasants toil, miners dig, and knights train... but only when I look at them! My gaze is law—progress thrives where I watch, but the moment I turn away? Laziness! Chaos! I must choose wisely: should I focus on the fields for food, the mines for riches, or the barracks for defense? With resources, I can even expand my all-seeing gaze, ensuring my kingdom flourishes… and that no one slacks off under my rule!
Water, wheat, stone, coal, silver—every resource fuels my empire! Farms feed my people, mines fund my ambitions, and workshops forge mighty defenses. Shall I invest in archers, reinforce the walls, or harness magic? Even my castle needs repairs when the enemy strikes! Every decision shapes my reign, and only a well-managed kingdom will survive the storm.
Rulership is no easy task! Each land presents new trials, from cursed cemeteries to infernal depths, forcing me to adapt. Yet every defeat is a lesson! As a true roguelite, my efforts grant permanent upgrades, unlocking new abilities, stronger defenses, and powerful strategies for my next reign. A true king doesn’t just rule—he evolves, forging an unstoppable legacy with each attempt!
Each battlefield hides unpredictable threats—enemies are led by unexpected Generals, demanding unique tactics to defeat. Want to conquer them all? You’ll need multiple runs! But fear not! My royal council aids me with cavalry masters, arcane sages, and cunning strategists. With their wisdom—and my unwavering gaze—victory is inevitable!

nice game , the visuals are good and overall gameplay is repetitive but fun as higher difficulty makes the game challenging . If you don't mind the repeating loophole then this game is super fun as you have different kings each with unique abilities and now with 4 different maps it kinda makes game worth its while .

For scale, across Steam · Top Sellers · Brazil over the last 30 days: the 24 chart moves that followed a price cut of more than 20% went a median of 9 places towards #1, and the 2,404 moves with no price cut behind them went 2 away. One store, one chart, one country — it is the only place we have enough observations to say even that.
Prices outside the United States have been collected since 6 August 2026 and chart positions since 19 July 2026, so a cut older than that has no market to compare and a market that joined later has no history yet. Nothing here is converted between currencies.

Крутой разраб
Completely unplayable on Steam Deck. The controls, while they technically exist, are atrocious, and all in-game instructions assume the use of a keyboard, so you can only figure out how to use ANY function through trial and error. Godawful experience, so angry I wasted my money. DO NOT BUY THIS GAME IF YOU INTEND TO PLAY ON STEAM DECK. The "playable" status it shows for deck is completely misleading. It is not and will not be playable until the devs patch in controller/deck recognition and automatically update the controls as described in-game to instead reflect a controller layout. Every other game I've ever played on my deck originally for PC has automatically switched directions for controls from keyboard to controller-why can't this one? This is exactly my kind of game, so it's a shame I can't play it. I've requested a refund on my wasted money. It's seriously unethical that the Steam Deck compatibility for this game is listed as "playable." That is a straight up lie. The tutorial told me to click on a tile and use the shift button to move it. How do I do that on deck, exactly? No clue. I'm not going to fight a game just to play it. Worthless, unplayable garbage on deck. Do not get this game if you plan to play on console.
Слетает прогресс каждые 2-3 перезахода в игру
ммм, найс, купил улучшение на кол-во советников, перезашёл в игру, вместо доп слота дали кристал вознесения. Спасибо разработчик
Сначала не вкатила, а потом как вкатила!
A really fun, deep game. I never thought I would like this sort of game at all, but 170 hours later (how?!?) here we are. Worth every cent!
Um dos melhores games do gênero, simples e compleo ao mesmo tempo, a personalização é razoável com potencial para se tornar algo ainda mais incrível.
善！甚善！
