Release Date: December 16, 2015
An MMO in Medieval setting, classified as a sandbox survival simulator. The game does not introduce a very refined plot; the players' characters, deprived of any memories, find themselves on the coast of a mysterious island, where it's everybody for themselves in the struggle for the royal throne.
Reign of Kings for PC is a survival game set in Middle Ages. The player, having created a character, is taken to an empty map and gradually builds his own fort to engage in struggle for the royal throne with other people present on the server. Cooperation or competition between other warriors is the core of the gameplay, with emphasis on brutality. The PC version was developed by CodeHatch.
The game does not feature an extensive story. Our character is shipwrecked on the coast of a mysterious island, devoid of all memories and completely on his own. Just like in every survival production, in Reign of Kings, we have to fight for food from the very beginning. To do so, we have to hunt animals and construct basic tools that are necessary to prepare meals. Once we have secured our survival at an elementary level, we can move on to more advanced activities, such as gathering resources, like wood or stones, that are then used to construct a fort. The buildings can be erected in cooperation with other players. These structures are secure zones, although they can be attacked.
In combat, warriors can fight either directly or from a distance. Either way, the player has to show good skill and tactical sense to win. Since Reign of Kings puts an emphasis on realism, the battles, shown from first- or third-person perspective, can end really fast should we, for example, manage to successfully land a blow to the enemy’s head. Reign of Kings is also very brutal — dismemberment and decapitations are very bloody, as are pretty much all other, not necessarily fatal, strikes. If a character dies, the game is over and the equipment is lost. We have to start from scratch, although we do have a chance to recover our lost property from the dead body of our previous character. Not every fight has to end in someone’s death, though, for the players can take other characters prisoner and then, for instance, demand a ransom for releasing them.
Slaying one's foes is one of the premier tools to achieve the ultimate goal: claiming the so-called Ancient Throne. Only one person can hold the title of the ruler on each server, while the rest either serve him or try to kill him. The latter is no easy task, though, for the king has a special, incredibly powerful sword at his disposal. What is more, he also gains a percentage of other players’ income. He may also change the name of the server.
Reign of Kings for PC offers detailed 3D graphics and realistic physics. During sieges we may freely demolish enemy fortifications, and the stability of the entire structure depends on the spots we hit. The game offers high quality visuals, and most of the songs featured on the soundtrack have a medieval feel to them.
