Kingdom is a 2D sidescrolling strategy/resource management hybrid with a minimalist feel wrapped in a beautiful, modern pixel art aesthetic.
The long-awaited day has finally come: [i]Kingdom Two Crowns[/i], the next full-fledged evolution of the [i]Kingdom [/i]franchise, is now available on Steam!

[i]Kingdom [/i](now lovingly called [i]Kingdom: Classic[/i]) was the first game we ever published, a simultaneously wonderful and terrifying experiment as we ventured into indie publishing for the first time, and being able to continue building upon that inaugural success years later has been a dream. As the fans and players of the original [i]Kingdom: Classic[/i], we’re excited to show you some of the great new stuff and we’re confident you’ll feel right at home in [i]Two Crowns[/i].
[b]BEFORE I CONTINUE[/b]
Many fans of [i]Kingdom [/i]know that the joy is in the discovery and learning for one’s self. There are also those who want to know how this is different from [i]Classic[/i], especially if you never had a chance to play [i]Kingdom: New Lands[/i] (the follow up to [i]Classic[/i]). To help with both, we’ll make the below list spoiler-marked on sensitive content.
[h1]KINGDOM TWO CROWNS FAQ[/h1]
[b]IS THIS A BRAND-NEW GAME OR AN EXPANSION TO [i]NEW LANDS[/i]?[/b]
This is a full, brand-new [i]Kingdom [/i]game, built from the ground up to offer a fresh new experience that is still very much [i]Kingdom [/i]to the core. We’ve added many new features, including the Japanese inspired Shogun setting, the first of many upcoming themed settings that enhance and alter the [i]Kingdom [/i]experience both in style and strategy.
[b]I DIDN’T PLAY [i]NEW LANDS[/i], WHAT CHANGES SHOULD I EXPECT?[/b]
[i]Kingdom: Classic[/i] was very much a survival mode with the one goal of destroying portals on one solitary procedurally generated land. [i]New Lands[/i] enhanced this by adding new NPCs called hermits, new mounts besides just the horse, and multiple lands each with increasing difficulty instead of just the one land experienced in [i]Classic[/i]. [i]Two Crowns[/i] takes all of this another gigantic step forward with additional mounts, an entirely new endgame, and a new campaign style gameplay that doesn’t make you start from scratch if you die.
[b]IS IT STILL A ROGUELIKE/ROGUELITE?[/b]
We’ve moved away from the roguelike experience and toward a full campaign experience. Now all of the lands will be a part of your greater kingdom, with progress that will maintain over time (you just have to repair any of the erosion).
[b]IS THERE CO-OP?[/b]
Yes! The campaign can be played either single player or local/online co-op on Steam.
[b]IF I LOSE MY CROWN, DO I HAVE TO START OVER?[/b]
[spoiler]Losing your crown in [i]Two Crowns[/i] is not the end. You will resume play in the new reign as your descendent who has inherited what remains of your ancestor’s kingdom. You will need to repair the erosion and recruit your followers again, but this can be done at a significantly faster rate, allowing you to pick up where you left off and explore further.[/spoiler]
[b]ARE THERE STILL UPGRADES? DO THEY STILL WORK THE SAME?[/b]
[spoiler]Yes, many of the familiar upgrades are still here, along with some new ones - but how you unlock them has changed. Now you will be required to venture to new islands to discover different upgrades and return to the previous islands in order to use them. [/spoiler]
[b]HOW DO SEASONS WORK IN TWO CROWNS? DOES WINTER END?[/b]
[spoiler]Seasons rotate regularly, so surviving through winter into spring is possible; you just have to build your economy to enable you to last. Seasons do not reset when you leave an island though, so be mindful of when you choose to settle a new land![/spoiler]
[b]IS THE KINGDOM STILL SECURED BY BUILDING THE BOAT AND LEAVING THE ISLAND?[/b]
Hahahaha. That’s cute. Not even close. [spoiler]You’ll have to find the technology that allows you to defeat the Greed for good, but even we’re not going to spoil that part.[/spoiler]
