Kingdom Two Crowns FREE on iOS this weekend Only

Dear Monarchs!

By royal decree, we celebrate the third anniversary of Kingdom Two Crowns. To mark the occasion, Kingdom Two Crowns will be free on iOS this weekend, Saturday December 11 and Sunday December 12!

Your prosperous reigns remained steadfast in defence against the advance of the Greed. Each new island and realm was explored, challenges were met, and countless attacks rebuffed. And, through it all, you expanded, creating magnificent empires. Watching you work together, share strategies, discover and learn the game together, and continue to grow one of the best game communities ever fills us with creative energy.

It was that same inspiration that filled our hopes for Kingdom Two Crowns at launch three years ago. We set out to create a deeper campaign that kept the familiar Kingdom feel, full of new challenges and ready to be shared in co-op. As the community grew, so did our ambitions for making new lands to explore and conquer, complete with new settings, mechanics, and units.

Your support helped guide the evolution of the game since launch. You, our dear Monarchs, have shown how much you care for Kingdom through your many suggestions, posts, and videos on all of our social platforms. So when we expanded the available settings with Shogun and Dead Lands, it turned out to be fuel to an already roaring fire. Once we heard calls for a more challenging experience we created Challenge Islands, but made sure that those who overcome them are rewarded. And today, we build upon everything we’ve done with Norse Lands, a premium expansion filled to the brim with unique mechanics and visuals, steeped in Norse mythology. It’s an experience we’ve wanted to make for a long time and we’re delighted to hear that you are enjoying it as well.

Here we are, back again at a point not unlike before Kingdom Two Crowns. Your spirit for the game has us full of ideas. These three years have been incredible. Now in the ones to come, we have our bar to beat.

We look forward to continuing to build, explore, and expand the Kingdom world with you, Monarchs.

Long Live You All!

Patch Update 1.1.14

Dear monarchs!

Thank you so much for being patient whilst we worked through the bug reports and balance recommendations. As always, if you spot any other bugs, please feel free to contact us via our support form.

Furthermore, we'd appreciate any feedback on the balance changes made. We read all your comments and feedback about some aspects of Norse Lands, and we hope we've addressed those causing the most problems.

Here’s what’s new in patch 1.1.14:

Norse Lands balance changes
  • Norse Lands Bankers now have extended working hours.
  • The tree in the Norse Lands Vagrant Camp has sadly died and been cut down.
  • Monarchs can now pay for Shield Walls during the day, allowing for preparation for the night's attack.
  • Reduced the cost for recruiting Berserkers and Berserker Leaders from 6/8 coins to 3/4 coins.
  • Berserkers run faster, jump attack in combat, and have more hit points.
  • Berserkers heal to full health after combat is over.
  • The day 30 blood moon in Norse Lands is now a smaller attack focused on the introduction of the Crusher Greed.
  • The winters of Norse Lands are proving too harsh for the Greed. Wave strength no longer increases during the first two winters.
  • The Crusher greed will now retreat if there are no other Greed on the map, in order to prevent certain scenarios where the player could get soft-locked.
General balance changes
  • Reduced the cost for recruiting citizens at the citizen house from 7 to 5 coins.
  • Builders now walk back to the nearest Kingdom border when they have no more jobs to do.
  • Large groups of Archers will now do a better job at defending the walls.
  • Pikemen can now carry 2 coins.

  • Plague Island has had a balance pass to adjust it to the fixes and balance changes made in the Conquest update.
  • Improved the Archer retreat mechanic so they are more reliable about taking up positions in towers deep in the Kingdom.
  • Masked trolls are a bit less effective against walls.
  • Builders will leave their catapult to repair walls in the mornings.
  • Breeders now throw catapult stones back less often.
Bugfixes
  • Fixed an issue that caused antivirus software to block the game, in some cases causing a fatal error saying “il2cpp failed to load”. The game now has a signed certificate that should prevent this from happening.
  • Fixed an issue that caused players with the system language set to Thai or Arabic to experience infinite saving or game freeze at campaign start.
  • More towers can now be built on each island, so the “I HAVE THE TOWER!” achievement should be easier to unlock. In order to access the new towers, you must start a new island or game.
  • Adjusted the text for the “A journey is better shared” achievement to accurately reflect the unlock conditions.
  • Fixed an issue that would cause the game to soft-lock when players paid for the Wall Horn in co-op.
  • Fixed an issue that caused some objects and Greed to fall off the map in a bottomless void, sometimes resulting in neverending blood moons.
  • Hermits should no longer jump off your mount at night if the Monarch is heading towards home.
  • Fixed a visual bug that caused the shields of workers to flicker if they entered the Oil & Fire Tower.
  • Fixed a visual bug that caused the wrong tower model to spawn in Dead Lands.
  • Fixed a visual bug that caused the Forge to spawn below ground in Shogun.
  • Fixed a bug where Norse Lands Berserkers would Rage continuously instead of attacking.
  • Fixed the monarch animation when riding the Sleipnir mount.
  • Additional minor bug fixes and tweaks.


Onward and safe travels! 👑

Nominate Kingdom: Two Crowns for the Labor of Love category!

Over the past three years we've had the opportunity to build the Kingdom game of our dreams with Kingdom Two Crowns. This wouldn't have been possible without the support from our Steam community. Together we've made this game something special that we can all be proud of. 👑
