Hi Everyone,

It's been a little over a year since we launched Kingdoms and Castles and the game has grown and improved quite a bit. But we won't rest. Looking into the future, we've got lots more new stuff planned!

On a personal note, it's been a life changing year for us, and we wanted to say thank you all for ideas, bug reports, and for playing!

Here's a quick update on what we're working on next:

Rival AI Kingdoms
This is gonna be a big one with lots of hefty new features, so it’s going to take a while. The AIs will need to build cities on their own and we’ll need to work out the consequences for sending armies across landmasses, attacking with soldiers and towers, and how to handle diplomacy. We’re laying the groundwork and setting stuff up for this now.

Since it’s going to take some time we’ve got some quicker updates coming out soon while you wait. You can look forward to our upcoming...

Beautification Update
We’ll be adding some new stuff for your villagers to enjoy, including royal gardens, a new statue, and fountains that tie in with the aqueduct system. Here’s a little preview of the gardens, they use a tile based system like the roads that changes how they look based on how you place them:
