Stronghold: Kingdoms Platform: PC The Director's Rating: 6/10 In this game you play as a founder for a village. The goal of the game is to become as powerful as you can, and eventually become ruler of all around you. This game is an MMORTS, and available for download (for free) in Steam. It is similar to Evony, except it's a bit more complex. This game features a chat box, an in game messaging system (inbox), and some decent gameplay. This game is similar to most browser games, except it's not playable in your browser. It is free to play, and allows you to pay into the game to get a one up over your competition (like other browser games). You can control multiple villages (based on your in-game "rank") and can take on vassals, as well as become a vassal. In essence, it's a castle defense/smash the castle type of game. Combat: This game is mainly you vs an AI, however there is also a P2P element to it as well. The more troops, the better your chances. You can also get more advanced troops that specialize in certain damage types (pikemen, swordsmen, archers, etc.). You can scout out enemy castles to give you a heads up to what you are up against, and then put your troops in an advantageous position for an attack. For defense, you can build walls for you castle made out of wood or stone, and can put several defense structures (e.g. ballistas, oil pots, killing pits, etc.) to assist your chances of surviving an assault. You can capture enemy castles, and can have your own castles captured. If all of your castles are captured, you have to start over. Missions:This game is still in it's beta stage, so there is only one mission (scout out a resource), however they have promised more missions to be added in the future. Synopsis: This game is a beta-stage RTS castle defense game. The cooldown timers on actions make it a "wait and see" game as well, which is kind of annoying. It's massive multiplayer (and I do mean massive) makes it an entertaining game to play if you have some downtime. The Director's Recommendation: This game could definitely be better, but then again it's in the beta stage. I recommend picking it up simply because it's a great way to pass a few minutes or so per day, and it's free to play. If you have a recommendation for a game that I should review, then let me know in the comments (I follow all of my threads ;D). Remember though, if it's a hyped up game then I won't do it. "Lesser Known" is in the title after all. Hope you enjoy your time in the world of games. Wanna see the others?
