About How to Build a Magnificent Kingdom


A tragic event has occurred in the once-prosperous Avon Kingdom, a massacre known to most only as the "Calamity King" incident. The once benevolent regent, King Regnault, went mad and started killing all among his subjects who weren't able to flee the country in time.
Now the country lies in tatters with nothing left in its coffers and a pitiful four citizens to its name: Princess Ariadne, who just recovered from a grave illness, her maid Luluka, Knight Commander Grey, and you, a mere Knight Apprentice. Shocked to find the country in ruins one morning, Ariadne doesn't believe for a second the Regnault she knew and loved would be capable of committing such atrocities while she was sick and bedridden. Her first decision as the new queen of Avon requires all her strength and courage, because it's as reckless as it is preposterous. She wants to restore her beloved kingdom to its former glory and clear her father's name.
It won't be easy—far from it—but with the help of some good old pillaging and the support of a couple of adventurers, you begin your arduous journey to restore Avon and unveil the mysteries behind its tragic downfall. Getting an entire kingdom back on its feet is no easy task. You'll have to allocate resources and invest in research in order to improve food production, the economy, crafting, technology, and much more. Each upgrade will help the kingdom thrive and make your people stronger, furthering you along the path of restoration. Diplomacy can't always be the answer though, and fighting will be inevitable at times. Control teams of up to eight characters in real-time top-down combat with a staggering breadth of AI customization, available skills, weapon choice, and special abilities to change the tide of battle. With a massive cast comprised of unique melee fighters, tanks, archers, magic users, and healers, you can pick and choose your favorite formation for each battle. Will you be able to withstand the force of the increasingly powerful waves of enemies? As you all work together toward your ultimate goal, you'll get to know each and every one of the supporters of Avon's restoration. Employ the characters in battle to deepen their bonds with you and each other, giving you access to hundreds of unique scenes that explore their personalities and relationships, award you with experience and resources, and grant unique weapons and character-specific abilities. A Kingdom to Rebuild
Talk and fight your way across the world to earn resources and reinvest them in the kingdom to grow richer and stronger. Each upgrade will provide benefits in one or more aspects of the gameplay: active and passive income, experience gain, stat increases for your party, and more.
Massive Real-time Battles
Take direct control of the party leader and let the finely customizable AI guide up to 7 more characters in battle in large-scale real-time skirmishes against hundreds of enemies. Fine-tune every character's equipment and skills until you find a combination that best suits you.
More Than 20 Playable Characters
You'll need heroes to rebuild the kingdom, and this game has plenty to offer. Discover the personalities and history of over 20 unique and fleshed-out characters by fighting alongside them and deepening your bonds.
Replayability and Difficulty
Do you feel too powerful after grinding for a tough boss? No problem! Each stage can be replayed indefinitely and with four different difficulty levels, ranging from Normal to Lunatic, the latter of which is sure to provide a tough challenge to even the most seasoned players.

Unironically better story and characters than Baldurs Gate 3.

First of all, "How to Build a Magnificent Kingdom" is a 95% visual novel and 5% game-play (subjective estimation). If you don't like games that have large amounts of text, maybe this game is not for you. While the game-play is shorter in comparison to storytelling, it's original and refreshing. Instead of classic turn-based RPGMaker mechanic, you will deal with hordes of enemies in real-time, controlling one of your characters in the hack-and-slash style or just use skills and commands in automatic mode. The story is split into events which are separate from battles, so you aren't forced to read everything if you don't want. But, if you want to figure out what is going on before the game will give you answers, I recommend you to prepare pen and paper. Because there will be many pieces of the puzzle. In the majority of RPG games, the interaction of characters is limited to MC and a few "buddies", but in this game, every character has a side story with every other character. Many of them! Sometimes they are gags, sometimes important clues. Each of them has a deep background and motivations based on it. You can become lovers and marry girls you like. The game gives you plenty of t…

Needs a massive external patch. I really enjoyed the combat, levelling up my kingdom, the story and with the patch big ol' lewd content. SPOILER WARNING: When you complete the game once you will basically need to play it again as it will unlock new characters and the story will go differently from the start in comparison to your first playthrough if you pick specific options

The story is quite long but it's amazing, no it's insane for this kind of game. The depth, characters, gameplay, music, and the replayability of this game are great. However, the art are inconsistent. Some characters or scenes are drawn great, but some others are drawn bad.

Pros: - Great story, lots of reading, improves reading skills :) - Interesting fight mechanics. - Lovely character designs. - Many different hot scenarios ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡° ) Cons: - Cannot change screen size. - Only three screen options given. - Window mode has a small window that strains the eyes. - Full screen 16:9 and 4:3 modes often crash the entire game when tabbing out. - The app will distort the main screen and overflow onto the second monitor. - Grind A LOTS to increase bonds between characters and unlock ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡° ) skills.
