What players say
Players say it is a simple and relaxing city builder where you build castles, fight Vikings and dragons, and watch your kingdom burn. The game is shorter than most in the genre, with most players getting 20 to 60 hours, but they enjoy restarting. The developers still release free updates, though they come slowly.
