Dec 2, 2024Monarchy has good mechanics and a decent presentation. The world feels generic and pretty empty but there’s a decent challenge in managing resources while expanding the player hold. But the game does not try to differentiate itself from other experiences in the laid-back side-scrolling strategy space. It takes too long to expand and exploring the woods is simply not exciting most of the time. The cost associated with the bigger upgrades is too high. Monarchy needs a unique gameplay idea or some big twist to make up for its otherwise familiar mechanics.

Nov 27, 2024If you're interested in strategy games, Monarchy should be on your list of upcoming purchases. It's a very simple and short title (we can finish it in less than four hours) that has an attractive artistic aspect as its main attraction. More than for its game modes or for offering something really new, it attracts attention for its addictiveness. In addition, we can get it on Steam for €15, which more than justifies the time of fun it guarantees. Although we would have loved it to have a proper tutorial, we shouldn't have many problems getting the hang of it soon after starting to enjoy it.
