Dear Monarchs!

Wed like to thank everyone that eagerly built their kingdoms spanning across many lands, each filled with secrets to be discovered. As your kingdoms expanded for each passing day, the seasons were passing as well. Eventually winter comes, which can be very harsh if your coffers are empty, making you hunker down behind safety of the walls as the Greed descend upon your Kingdom to pillage during the night. In the previous game Kingdom: New Lands, the intention was to escape the land with winter being the end state. In Kingdom Two Crowns however you must persevere through winter to spring and end the Greed. However, there is good news, the citizens have discovered new ways to be more active during winter allowing for more options to continue your plight against the Greed. Read below for more details:

• Hunting during winter: While the smaller animals go into winter hibernation, theres other animals that suddenly appear as the snow starts falling on the ground. But beware that you must first find this menacing animal deep in the forest, and once confronted its much tougher than the regular small game that roamed outside the walls of your kingdom during spring, summer and autumn.
  
  
  
  
• Foraging during winter: Since the farms cant harvest during winter, the Farmers have discovered foraging to bring in a bit of extra income. Its not much but every bit helps.
  
  
  
  
• Shinobi: Who says being a stealth warrior at night is all were good for?! During long nights of waiting in ambush the Shinobi came up with a brilliant way to pass time during the day instead of just sleeping.
  
  
  
  
• Introducing the Gem Chest: Those gems sure are a heavy burden to carry around while you explore for valuable upgrades to use gems on. Now you can lighten your purse and store the gems in a stone chest. This appears by the Wharf once youve upgraded your Kingdom to a Stone Castle. Storing gems is a costly business, so it wont be free for the Monarch to offload those precious gems.
  
  
  
  
• Other updates: In addition to the above theres also fixes and changes such as an upgrade to the Stable to make switch Steeds more affordable, improving appearance of shops on the edge of your kingdom walls as you expand, and optimisation of save data compression, to mention a few. We have also included Brazilian-Portuguese as a language option and improved the Russian text.
