In Kingdoms Reborn, you lead your people to settle in a rich vast wilderness. Inspired by Banished, Anno, and Civilization, the game features challenging resource management combined with an extensive tech tree and upgrades. With multiplayer, you can cooperate or compete in real-time with your friends in the same open world.

!!! Early Access Warnings !!!
This game just came out on Early Access and you might want to wait a bit before jumping in. It really hurts me to see some of you bought something you didn't expect, so here are warnings about what isn't there for you yet.
•   AI players are very primitive, so please ignore them. The game's main challenge is currently just the resource management. (to be improved soon)
•   The game can slow down when population grows to 300+ especially on high game speed. (to be improved soon)
•   The game is not yet designed to be played at max speed. If you play Banished at x10 speed, you might want to wait for further development.
•   There are no military units. In this game, you battle with influence points in an auction-like system.

FEATURES

Manage your people who have to work, eat, and rest just like us

Card System FAQ

Since there are lots of questions/concerns about the card system, I am putting the related questions/answers here :)

Why the card system?
In Kingdoms Reborn, players use cards to build and take actions. Every round (two and a half minutes), players get a selection of cards that can be bought and used. There are several reasons the card system is there:

• Regulate the pace of multiplayer games. Having a limited number of actions players can take, over time, prevents the game from turning into fast-clicking mayhem. It promotes and encourages strategic thinking and planning.
• Cards allow the addition of more content (buildings, actions, bonuses) without overwhelming and cluttering the UI.
• Cards also act as a soft tutorial, with the short card description helper telling players what they can do with each card.

How did you arrived at the card system?
The city-builder genre so far has been single-player focused, hence why the old menu system works. Pacing was never a problem. People can always speed up and slow down the game.

On another end, mainstream RTS solved the multiplayer pacing problem by forcing everyone to be fast and lubricating the action executions with hotkeys.

Now with this game, we don't want RTS-style high APM play for multiplayer. So it makes sense to throttle the number of actions people can take. Board games have been doing this forever with card system, so why not just put that here :)

Card system from mobile seems to have left bad taste in the mouth for many of us. But rest assured, the card system here follows board game's inspiration (I don't even play mobile game :D).

Does every building need cards to be built?
Common buildings like Houses/Farms/Road/Bridges etc. do not require cards to be built.

Other worries about the card system:
If you are worried about RNG issues related to the card system, I do try my best to mitigate RNG issues with things like card rerolls and Wild Card.
Most beta-testers have no issue with the card system. Some even love it :)

If you are worried about the card system feeling like Mobile Games, rest assured, I don't play mobile games myself. The card system designs here are heavily influenced by Board Games which I love (and I hope you do too :) )
