About Dungeons & Dragons - Stronghold: Kingdom Simulator

Build and command your own kingdom in the Dungeons & Dragons game world

In this remarkable kingdom simulator, your goal is to become Emperor by building and expanding your stronghold in competition against opposing computer-controlled kingdoms. Choose three courses of action to achieve Emperor status: Lawful (Maximizing the prosperity and morale of your poulace; Chaotic (total military victory over all your enemies); or Neutral (striving to achieve both objectives, the toughest challenge of all).

All the details of running a kingdom must be dealt with: construction, farm land, managing population, housing, troops, morale and changing seasons - and, of course, a multitude of D&D game monsters. Micro-manage all these factors personally if you want absolute control, or let the computer do much of it for you. Choose from pre-created worlds or computer-generated random scenarios for a new challenge every time. With the intuitive mouse-driven command interface, running your own kingdom has never been more fun, fast or easy!
  • Build your own Dungeons & Dragons game kingdom with over 100 structures including castles, forges, mines, marketplaces, towers, temples, cottages, schools of magic and granaries
  • Micro-manage every detail of running a kingdom or let the computer handle most of the chores
  • Fully-animated combat
  • For one player against computer-controlled opponents
  • Computer-generated random scenarios offer unlimited hours of fun and excitement

✦ AI summary

Players are divided primarily by nostalgia, with longtime fans praising the game's unique strategy and building mechanics that still hold up today, while newcomers find it overly tedious with a clunky, unintuitive interface and excessive micromanagement. Technical issues including crashes and freezes are a persistent problem, and the slow pacing frustrates even those who appreciate the core gameplay underneath.

This is an absolute genius gem of a game from 30+ years ago. I played it then, and I'll be playing it for along time right now! This is a simple but long development, strategy, land building, monster lair slaying game. :D

Once you start playing and getting into it you'll experiences crashes. Error 26 and error 27 freezes the game.

I don't have the nostalgia bug for this one. So, trying it for the first time, I found it both overly simplistic and also overly complex in different ways. Brain hurts.

Fun and somewhat challanging but very tedious and slow, nostalgia is one thing, but using elevator instead of climbing 150th floor by jumping from each step onto a railing and catching it with your teeth just to jump onto anther one, is simply the smart thing to do But if you get over all the micromanagement it's pretty solid and there is pretty much nothing like it nowadays

Ah, what to say about this game. It has a clunky UI and not very intuitive game play. However, as a kid I loved D&D and I remember buying and playing this game back in the 90's and enjoyed it, despite its flaws. I find I still enjoy this game years later.

Played it in my youth when it came out, still love it. Its a weird but cozy and enjoyable mix of build up and RPG :-)...
