Evaluation

KingSim launched on May 28, 2020 and received one major post-launch content update — the Game+ update — which shipped on August 10, 2021. This update added new story events, characters, mechanics, and over 100 deaths/endings, and was described by the developer as the result of nearly a year of additional work after release. No further major content updates have been announced or released since then. Following the Game+ release, the developer has continued light maintenance: a feature patch in May 2022 (trading cards, UI rebuilds), a balance patch in June 2022, and a handful of bug fixes through March 29, 2025. These patches address bugs and edge cases in the existing content — such as broken achievements, dialogue issues, and death triggers — rather than introducing new story content or gameplay systems. The only DLC is the soundtrack, which was released on June 19, 2020. No additional DLC has been listed or announced. The developer has not communicated any plans for future content updates, expansions, or sequels. The game's single major post-launch update has shipped, subsequent communications have been limited to bug fixes, and no roadmap or new content announcements exist. The game appears to have reached its completed state as of August 10, 2021, when the Game+ update launched.

About this game





The king is dead, long live the king!

Now it's your turn to rule your small 8-bit style kingdom. Unfortunately, our country has seen better days: the hordes from the south are about to invade, our economy and morale are pretty low, and rumors spread of assassins in town. Make decisions that count, but be cautious. You never know when you'll die.



  • Each decision affects the story. Trade, raise the army of undead, make alliances or execute your loyal subjects. The choice is yours. The characters remember your doings and act accordingly.

  • Manage resources. Balance your kingdom's Army, Food, Gold, Faith, Happiness, and Health. A wise king knows what's best.

  • Survive. The game has dozens of endings - a chain of wrong decisions can lead to death. Maybe next try you'll live a little longer?

  • Play minigames. Cut wood, mine for gold, trade on a market or win the princess in dice. Your skill can save your life.


How will your story end?
