I'm really tired of all the My Kingdom for The Princess clones but this one had many unique features. I didn't find it too clicky at all. I loved the graphics and found it to be a very fun game. I played it all in one sitting. :) Good job, developers! And thank you!
I recommend this game!

I love it, so please try it, music isn't to bad and story is all right, I had no trouble understanding what to do,The only bad thing I have to say is the words from the people blend into there pages and its hard to read what they say, but that's it.Do your self a favor and give it a go!!!!!!!!!

I just bought the game after trying the demo. It seems to be a very fun game so far. I turned off the music-didn't like it too much. Not an issue though. This should be a nice TM game for my collection. Recommended!

Love the opening scene, but opening scenes don't make the game...
The "directions" for the level, in the bottom left corner, are very hard to see/read. If you are going to have multiple directions (i.e. click to continue) the developer needs to make sure the timer doesn't start until you have read through everything.

I will probably buy it, but just resign myself to reading the directions, restarting the level, then playing the level. Show less

It takes a little bit to get used to. It's not your typical TM game. There isn't a lot of direction. I didn't get gold on the first try of the first level, which was frustrating but made me try again. That's what I like about TM games. I had to re-try one level because the game didn't explain how to get more gold or ore but once I figured that out it was fun to try again. Just my opinion. I'm ...Show more

I read other reviews and almost didn't download this one, but I'm glad I did.
I did not have issues such as not being able to figure out the game and issues with the dialog. If you read it all before starting your quests you'll be fine. I did see that if during the tutorials (on a replay for gold) if you try to rush ahead of what the characters are telling you to do it makes it very hard to see ...Show more

I did not have issues such as not being able to figure out the game and issues with the dialog. If you read it all before starting your quests you'll be fine. I did see that if during the tutorials (on a replay for gold) if you try to rush ahead of what the characters are telling you to do it makes it very hard to see the game as some parts are highlighted, others not. Just be patient and all will be fine. You can turn off the hints each level as well.
The characters do need to be told to go to a house and back to base, but it isn't a significant amount of clicking to me. You also don't need to click and hold, but just click the house then the base and your worker will happily travel along. Don't forget to buy extra help and visit the trader often or you'll never get gold on some levels.
Overall this was a fun game. The story was a bit strange, but I tend to click through them anyway. Show less

My first time around through all the levels of this game I thought it was OK but not too challenging. Going back to get gold on every level I started to appreciate it more. It is a pretty good little game. Give it a chance. I would try another from this developer.
I gave it only 4 stars because the graphics are a little hard on my eyes, not a lot of contrast.
I recommend this game!

... Which is reminiscent of "Pioneer land". Beautiful graphics, between "cartoon" and realism. The difficulty is growing without ever insurmountable.
A game that allows play with pleasure, despite some minor gameplay issues (the sets become blurred sometimes for a second or two).
It can be purchased without a problem, why not enjoying a coupon.
I recommend this game!

This is an enjoyable Tm. After reading some of the reviews I wasn't sure but thought I'd give the demo a try. After I got used to it I was all over it. I had the same experience with the Monument builders series. Read all the dialogue bubbles that come up and they'll tell you all you need to know.
I recommend this game!
