Build churches to keep them from despair and taverns to keep them happy.

Make sure your peasants are fed in the winter and healed of plagues. Tax them just enough to fund your castle. Strategically layout your town to improve your peasants’ happiness and to attract new residents. Do the viking raiders make off with your villagers? Or are they stopped, full of arrows, at the castle gates? Does a dragon torch your granary, your people dying of starvation in the winter, or are you able to turn the beast back? The success of your kingdom depends solely on your skill as a city and castle planner. Your kingdom must survive a living and dangerous world. Kingdoms and Castles is a city-building simulation game about growing a kingdom from a tiny hamlet to a sprawling city and imposing castle.
