Really solid breath of fresh air – Kingdoms & Monsters Review

I'm pretty surprised with this game. At first I didn't think too much of it because of its' low amount of ratings (a sign something is usually amiss, at least to me). But I gave it a shot. And I'm really glad I did. This has been a fun and rewarding experience! The UI is top notch, everything is clear and easy to read, very well organized. The game does a good job walking you through the ropes, slowly unlocking access to features so you don't get overwhelmed. The cash currency isn't a big deal, you can watch videos to earn it. The mixture of resource management and city planning is detailed enough to encourage me to keep playing but not daunting, either. For example, keeping your citizens happy by decorating, and making sure roads connect to buildings so said citizens can access them. My only gripe is that sometimes the quest dialogs will have words strung together, and even the odd "large format" text where the npc's name should be. But that's very minor, and leaps better than most freemium titles. I never leave huge reviews, but I felt this game really deserves more of a following. Play it, you have nothing to lose and might just consider this a gem in a sea of cookie cutter mobile games.
