Reigns: Her Majesty
Reigns 2
A sequel to the popular multi-genre game, blending elements of logic puzzle, adventure, and strategy games with some roguelike aspects. Like in the first installment, the production was created by Nerial. Reigns 2 is set in a tongue-in-cheek version of the middle ages.
developer: Nerial publisher: Devolver Digital Official website
Reigns: Her Majesty, released on PC, AND and iOS, is an unusual production that combines elements of a logic, adventure and strategy games. It was developed by Nerial studio, the same developer that produced the first part.
Plot
We move from Middle Ages, the setting of the first game, to the XVIII century. This time, we do not play as a king, but as a queen who has just assumed the power over the state. Our task is to stay on the throne for as long as possible, which is not easy, because everyone wants to dethrone us.
The authors did not try to realistically recreate the reality of the XVIII century and instead presented a highly humorous version of the period. Compared to the first part, the developers decided to put more emphasis on political and diplomatic gameplay, not just brutal murders.
Mechanics
Reigns: Her Majesty, released on PC, AND and iOS, is a very unusual production. While playing, the player must take care of their kingdom, satisfy the needs of the people, wage wars, make judgments on important matters, develop the economy and play political and diplomatic games. However, all this was realized in a style resembling Tinder dating application. During the game, cards with events are drawn from the deck. You can swipe left or right with your finger on the screen, select one of two options, and these include raising taxes, declaring war, marrying or ordering silent murder of enemies.
The game's engine remembers our every decision and takes it into account in the further course of our history. The game is fully non-linear and the consequences of our choices quickly start to accumulate. Sooner or later, we will make one mistake too much - the result is the death of our queen. The game is about trying to stay on the throne as long as possible.
Just like in a roguelike, every death in Reigns: Her Majesty is permanent and forces the game to restart from scratch. However, we begin as the successor to the previous queen, so the decisions made earlier also affect the reign of the next monarch.
