About This Game

You find yourself thrust upon the throne of an entire realm at the tender age of 25. 

What will you do with your new found power? What kind of leader will you be?

Will you build up the realm and it's people, or use them to live a life of opulence and power?

Will you protect those in your realm from the many dangers that are sure to come your way, or will you leave the people exposed to the evils that seek to consume your kingdom?

Will you keep the peace with the leaders, and aspiring leaders, of the land, or will you mercilessly crush the first sign of rebellion?  

No matter what you choose, the relentless march of time is ever nipping at your heals. You only have so long to build your legacy and leave your mark on history.

👑 ONE LIFE

• Court and marry, crown your lifelong partner.

• Heirs are born, named with care, and grow up over the years with a voice that rings through the palace walls.

• See your ruler age from a sharp eyed twenty five year old to a grey haired elder.

• Old age is an exciting time. It is the final chapter of your reign, with its own burdens, wisdom, and choices. Will you be able to realize your aspirations in time?

• In the end, how well, or how badly you reigned will ring loudly in the annuls of history. How it all ends depends on your choices throughout your life.

🏰 A LIVING, BREATHING KINGDOM

• Your kingdom is alive with mayors, princes, princesses, criers, schemers, petitioners, and rivals who are not past using force to get what they want.

• Rivals do not wait politely for your permission. They seize influence, force alliances, and try to bend your towns to their will. Will you keep the peace with them, or will you defend your rule by force?

• As the years pass, petitions and dilemmas come before the crown. Some are simple. Some will cost you. Many will echo for years.

• Build granaries, forges, resource production, storage, and defenses. Collect taxes, feed your people, fund your army, and decide what kind of kingdom survives you.

• Between the great decisions, life continues: festivals, royal balls, town bulletins, criers in the square, all with your loyal pet at your heels.

⚔️ WIELD YOUR SWORD FOR JUSTICE

• Life in the Kingdom features real-time action combat built for seamless keyboard/controller support.

• 54 unique weapons and 9 upgradable passive skills that evolve into various more powerful and expanded effects. 

• Venture into nine themed dungeons, from the torch-lit Cave to the Starforge Below, to the mysterious Mermaid's Call.

• Challenger quests pay out tokens used at the blacksmith to purchase upgrades to your weapons, player and pets.

📜 YOUR LEGACY

• Royal Ambitions are a roadmap to progression through the age.

• The Yearly Bulletin records your reign year by year, proclaiming milestones, failures, treasured discoveries, turning points and revealing the closely guarded secrets of the people in your realm.

• Collectible trinkets, weapons, weapon upgrades and gear sets are displayed in your castle as proof of your achievements. 

✝️ A KINGDOM IN MORE THAN NAME

Life in the Kingdom carries an earnest thread of Christian faith. Town criers preach in the square, mercy is treated as strength, and the game's heart is a question of stewardship, what you do with the life you were given. It's woven into the world, and carried by the colorful personalities of the people that live in it.
