    It's a fantastic example of the way that mobile-focused design doesn't have to mean that a game has to be any less deep or engaging in a long-term way. However you decide to play Reigns, you have to play this fun, inventive, and engaging game.

    If you enjoyed other games by Devolver Digital, which includes the awesome Downwell, then you don’t want to miss out on Reigns.

    It’s made of a mashup of seemingly familiar ideas, yet it’s unlike anything we’ve played before.

    Brilliant, funny and unique, Reigns is the symbolic marriage between Tinder, a roguelike, a business simulation game, and Game of Thrones.

    In Reigns the reign simulator shakes hands with Tinder. Sometimes you will be angry, sometimes you will laugh and often you´ll have to think. But most of all you will be well entertained.

    Reigns is an original, funny and enjoyable experience, that unfortunately won't last too long due to his repetitiveness.

    A clever subversion of strategy and casual mobile play that makes you laugh, cry, and think.

    This bizarre tale of history is yours and yours alone... and it's far too engrossing for you to ignore.

    I thought this was going to get boring quick, boy was I wrong, it is very innovative in how it determines and steers you through the ages,I thought this was going to get boring quick, boy was I wrong, it is very innovative in how it determines and steers you through the ages, decisions made eons ago affect you much later on, the Holy Triangle making an appearance here but not in the manner that you think, you can make or break each part and believe me .. there is such a thing as having too much money. Amazing game, get it you won't regret it Full Review »

    I played this because it seemed to be the best substitute for Crusader Kings II on the IPad.

The game also seemed like it never ended, which made the game a bit repetitive. Full Review »
