Overview

Stronghold Kingdoms Overview

Stronghold Kingdoms is a standalone, free-to-play medieval MMORTS developed by Firefly Studios, acting as an MMO version of their already popular and commercially successful Stronghold series of RTS games. To play, a quick download and install is required, but is rather small in size compared to modern games, standing around 10MB as a final download. The game begins with a single village under advisement by the game’s tutorial character, leading into a relatively short tutorial that shows some basics of the game but allows players to take the reins relatively quickly in comparison to many RTS game introductions. Similar to The Settlers Online: Castle Empire, the game focuses heavily on resource management, making its resource pipeline in-depth and rewarding to master. The game also offers many ways to interact with other players, including parishes that can levy taxes and offer benefits to your villages, resource trading, scouting, multi-language chatrooms, ransacking, and in-depth ranking systems.

Stronghold Kingdoms Key Features:

  • Real-Time PvP – battle can happen at any time, meaning that there’s danger even when you’re not online.
  • Community Focus – multiple ways to play with friends and foes, from joining up together under a single parish and working together to create a community hub, or ransacking your foes and defending your castle against enemy attack.
  • Complex Research Tree – Discover new technology to drive your village down the path of farmer, trader, diplomat, warlord and more.
  • Join a Faction – Fight with friends to capture villages and return with their banners, offering glory and extra tax income to the winners.
