The City of Kings

Players cooperate in a fantasy campaign to defend the last city by exploring a ruined world, gathering resources, trading, and building structures. Each player selects a hero with multiple skills and customizable stats, then commands workers to collect materials, craft items, and unlock bonuses while uncovering tiles that reveal quests, hazards, traders, and monsters across modular realms. Combat is deterministic and puzzle-like: enemies are assembled from pools of spells, traits, and stats, and damage persists between encounters. Success depends on character specialization, resource management, and coordinated strategy to overcome evolving battle situations.
