About Automatic Kingdom
You are the leader of a new Kingdom, starting from nothing and hoping to reach the highest levels of Prosperity. Each turn, play Cards to add Citizens, Constructions, Animals, and Soldiers to your Kingdom, building a city that can produce vast amounts of resources and protect itself from disease, invaders, and other challenges.Automatic Kingdom is all about trying to create synergies, placing Citizens near each other to generate resources and activate abilities. As your city grows, you will need to rearrange things and decide what must be kept, and what must be removed to make way for new additions. Do you keep your Cobbler near the Farmers to increase your Food, or is it time to shift it over to boosting the Miners for Labor? Or perhaps we could remove the Cobbler and put in a Cook instead?Challenges will emerge from nature, hostile nations, and the fabric of magic itself. While you are trying to grow your Kingdom, you must also find ways to protect it from disease, criminals, invaders, and more. New challenges are always emerging, and always growing stronger— so your Kingdom must always be growing stronger as well.Most of your resources reset every turn. This means that if you can't afford to build a Construction you want, you can't just sit around and wait— you need to figure out what must change in your Kingdom to reach the levels of resources required. Reach new levels of production by carefully arranging Citizens to activate synergies.As you ascend through the Tiers of Prosperity, you will be continually unlocking new Cards to add to your Kingdom, discovering new resources, abilities, and synergies. Will the older Citizens be valuable building blocks to combine with your newer members, or should some of them be removed to make way for new abilities?At higher Tiers, unlock new mechanics to provide for your Kingdom. Launch Invasions to secure more resources, craft Laws to reshape your Kingdom, and manage a Court of Councilors with shifting loyalties.After your victories, you will unlock new ways to play.Chaos Modifiers reshape the entire fabric of the game, changing the way your Kingdom will be built on future playthroughs.Alt Cards let you flip cards between two different versions, giving you more flexibility to try new strategies.

Great Table top game in a PC game form. Each level of progression feels good. The challenge tiers in higher difficulties are challenging and requires shifts in priorities to achieve. The game is casually fun, and each game can be changed up with extra challenges for those who want a harder grind to the game. Nice paced, cards, animations and sound effects are cute. A fun game for the price point, highly recommend.1 found this helpful
Nice and enjoyable game. By the nature of the game there is a lot of RNG but I never felt that it is an obstacle as it happens in some games. Rather it made my runes unique by preventing of use of exactly same tactics as in previous ones. Eras (forgot the game specific name ;]) progression makes single run enjoyable by making you to adjust tactic gradually instead of relaying on snowball effect1 found this helpful

I loved Automatic Kingdom! It's a great combination of turn-based strategy, intuitive mechanics, and interesting challenges. The citizen/building cards are well thought out, and I enjoyed the humorous touches (like the poet being less productive when surrounded by too many happy people). Each level felt balanced, and I liked the sense of progression that came along with unlocking new cards and resources. The mini battles were a lot of fun too - they broke up the pacing nicely and complemented the engine building aspects of the game. I've already played through once, and I'm looking forward to my next round!1 found this helpful
Scratches the empire-builder itch without requiring 24 hours of dedication per game. The systems are intricate and engaging in such a way that finding a perfect balance is always just within reach but not too simple to achieve.1 found this helpful
Scratches so many itches for me. A rogue-like card game with strategy and civilization building elements that's easy to play for a few minutes or a few hours. I love this game. I only wish I could recommend this game to friends without them thinking it's a clicker game due to the title.1 found this helpful
