Kingdom & Dragons Gameplay

The gameplay of Kingdom & Dragons is similar to a village building game except it’s based on a kingdom being attacked by monsters. In the game you’ll be focused on rebuilding the kingdom as well as journeying through stages of the game where you’ll enter battles with monsters to reclaim the land.

In the game you’ll be tapping on building buttons to build farms, buildings, and other restructuring buildings in the game. These buildings generate coins and supply like most builder games and will help you throughout the game.

Battle System

There is a general battle system in the game which is similar to action-RPGs. There are tons of active skill and passive skills to build your character with but don’t expect a full-fledge RPG battle system. Some of the battles may seem unnecessary and is just there.

The difficulty of the battle system is also up for debate. Players beginning the game will notice the difficulty of the bosses and the difficulty increases over time.

Characters

Templar (Alan) – Young Templar who is an expert swordsman. Advantageous in close range fighting against multiple enemies.

Bowmaster (Robin) (80 Crystal) – Highly trained recon soldier with long range arrow attack and survival skills. Safely attacks from distance.

Rose (Enchantress) (120) – Valedictorian of the Mage Academy. Strikes with powerful magic attack but is weak in DEF.

Internet Requirement

Being a village builder game, Kingdom & Dragons require the use of the internet. Although the focus is probably not there too much but that is the reason why this game requires the internet.

Kingdom & Dragons Graphics

The graphics of the game takes the route of similar RPG games from Gamevil. There’s a sense of cartoony characters combines with vibrant colors and highly detailed artwork.

Kingdom & Dragons Sounds

There are set soundtracks and sound effects to go with it but the loading time makes the sound terrible as it’s not fluid.

Kingdom & Dragons Round-up

Being a builder game for mobile players to build their own kingdom this game lacks one of the fundamental requirements. That is performance and speed. There is absolutely no reason for the game to take so long when building or collecting coins from your village.

Some players argue that this game should not require internet connection. That is true, and because of the internet connection it makes to the server it causes a lag each time they do. This lag is terrible even if it is for 5 seconds. Major Builder games have made this flawless without the “connecting” loading symbol ever popping up on the player.

Gamevil is relatively new to the village building genre, and have taken steps to incorporate their RPG centric division into village building games. Hopefully the game improves over time and they improve on the performance in this title

Kingdom & Dragons does have good points in terms of gameplay. The battle system is there and feels like a fresh idea but needs tweaking. The story behind the game Is absolutely compelling, however, will the actions required in the game overshadow the story of the game? Well, that’ll have to depend on the player but definitely a plus with the story.
