Fun to play but I have the same complaint as some others: why does the game ignore my phones screen orientation lock? Impossible to play in bed because the game keeps rotating to wrong position, and no way to stop it. It would also be nice to have some kind of screen lock/pause button so I could access the top bar to check the clock etc. without accidentally swiping the cards. Stars will increase when these are dealt with, because I really like the game otherwise

This game is extremely fun, interesting and rewarding when you experience new things or make progress but does definitely get repetitive when its just common diaologue. Overall it feels like it has a lot of passion and love put into it and even if I do think that a pretty big part of the game is kind of boring and there could be something done to perhaps skip common diaologue, its still without a doubt one of the best mobile games out there. It just feels good to play even in the boring parts.

It's just like the pc version but this game is perfect on the go. Only reason it doesn't get 5 starts is because it's poorly formatted for my phone screen. Some of the text is cut off at times but it isn't unreadable and is still very fun

It's a very charming game about ruling a kingdom and balancing your actions to rule as long as possible. It is quite fun and can have fun scenarios. My biggest problems are the luck aspect to trying to last a long time, and after a while, you've seen most of the choices by then. Overall, I would recommend playing.

Repetitive. Is really fun definitely but there needs to be more progression, more story to follow, I've read a few different comments and I can totally agree that the main issue is it just gets repetitive and yeah grinding on games can be fun but only if you're achieving something from it, where as it feels (other than the passing of time and so the addition of characters/cards up until a point) like there's no progression. Every king the same, with the same options on the same cards eventually.

Genuine review: The design, art style and the main story line is perfect. It's very difficult to navigate around but it is there. Simplicity is not the best but it's 50/50 on that spectrum. The issue comes down to content. The content so far is good, but once you done the main story line, it sort of stops. You need to have a massive expansion to provide more things. So players don't see the same issues, events or people over and over. Would I recommend this? For a SHORT while yes

Very good card game, sort of a swipe and the story tells out. There is a bug where the text does seem to go outside of my phone screen (samsung A14 5G) and though I know what the words are, I suggest maybe a text border customiser or a setting to help with the issue. Any how, the game is enjoyable in my opinion, though, I haven't played enough to say. But I'm liking the simplicity of the game mechanics.

I actually finished the game (nice ending ;) btw) took almost a full week to do it. Can be confusing at times but still a pretty neat game. I wish there was a way to continue your game instead of it just ending. I think it's funny how far in time you go. Well I messed up on the question about resetting the game. If there was an option to answer that question again. Good game overall !!!👍👍👍

I am very happy with my purchase, this game has enough content to keep me happy when I have a minute to spare. I like that there are consequences for being to good to one group and it will still lead to your death. For example if you give to much power to the church they will usually sacrifice you or something. So it's a constant struggle to keep everything in balance untile you die of old age if you can get threw the old age effect. In conclusion I think this is one you should definitely try!

It's pretty fun, I like it's unique system of keeping a kingdom up and running, but I am having a weird technical issue. When I have my phone in portrait mode, the game is kinda zoomed in and I cannot see some text if it is too close to the ends of the screen, making it hard to play unless I am in landscape mode. My screen is a weird size so that might be the problem, I have a moto g stylus 5g 2021. If you could fix this that would be greatly appreciated!

A good concept to launch I suppose, but this is a game for a niche audience. The cards are odd and repetitive, the story is random and it's hard to feel empowered to win or lose the way it is set up. Might as well roll dice for 5-40 years on the throne. The feeling is being powerless in an Alice's Wonderland sort of World. You can only decide yes or no, and nearly all decisions have consequences. If you plan it right, you can choose if the army overthrows you first or you run out of money.

An interesting and affective redesign of "choose your own adventure" story telling as game that is easy to pick and play any time. The short form narrative helps keep sessions and choices short and to the point. I had wanted to try this game for a while, so it was one of my first downloads with the Google Play Pass. I can say that it is worth the premium price point and a no brainer if you have the Play Pass.

It's an excellent game if you only have a couple minute to play, with a very simple system of swiping left and right, yet with a surprising amount of depth and intricacies. There are events that only happen in certain circumstances and the dialogues are pretty fun and engaging. The only bad thing is that you lose too soon though, it only takes a couple bad decisions to get killed.

Very unique game. It got repetitive and some outcomes make no sense but underneath you see that its really just a numbers game. There isn't much to build on as you constantly die and assume control of the next king. The choices you are able to make are binary and don't make enough impact for any meaningful preparation for the future of your "reign." The dungeon and fighting modes are simplistic and uninteresting. I will continue to play the game though it is failing to keep my interest.

This game is great and I absolutely love it. Problem is it doesn't scale correctly to my phone. Text on both the left and right side of cards is cut off by the screen. I think it's to do with my phones screen ratio being 20.5:9 and when this game was originally designed 18:9 was the industry standard. I'd love to see an update to fix the scaling for newer phones with weird size screens. Sadly, I know this game is up there in years and updates probably aren't the devs priority.

I absolutely adore text based games with choices that matter, however this game isn't one of those. The choices feel meaningless and although some things pass down through generations, it doesn't have the impact needed, to truly feel like a dynasty game. It's worth checking out but it's not for me. I love the concept, dislike the execution.

I really can't recommend this game. The concept is actually pretty good and it really could be a good game... But whoever wrote the dialog makes me think they were the programmer themselves or simply had a humor that makes no sense to me. Often times the story is convoluted and the words chosen feel like they had a thesaurus next to them. This is one game I hope another studio picks up and expands upon the ideas presented here. There is a good game waiting to be developed with the concepts laid out here....
