Kingdoms of Dominion: RTS

Lead a medieval kingdom in real time: gather, build, advance through four ages and crush rival armies. Free, with no ads and no pay-to-win.

Kingdoms of Dominion is a medieval real-time strategy game made for iPhone, in landscape. Put your villagers to work, grow a town from a single Town Hall, advance from the Dark Age to the Dominion Age and march an army out to hold the map.

FOUR CIVILIZATIONS Lead the Britons, the Franks, the Chinese or the Mongols. Each has its own bonuses, its own look and its own unique unit, trained at the Castle: British Longbowmen outrange every other foot archer, Frankish Francisca Throwers hurl axes that archer armour cannot stop, Chinese Repeating Crossbowmen loose three bolts a volley, and Mongol Steppe Archers strike fast and ride on.

FOUR AGES Advance from the Dark Age through the Feudal Age and the Stronghold Age to the Dominion Age. Each age opens new buildings, units and technologies. Cards that a later age opens stay on the command bar, greyed, with the age they need, so you can plan ahead.

A REAL ECONOMY Gather food, wood, gold and stone. Hunt, farm and forage, raise houses, mills, camps and markets, and research technologies that make every worker and soldier better. Spend wisely: every age costs more than the last.

ARMIES WITH COUNTERS Train militia, spearmen, archers, cavalry, monks and siege engines. Spears stop horsemen, ranged troops punish slow infantry and rams break walls, so scouting and the right mix win battles. Build walls, gates, towers and castles to hold what you take: a Castle looses three arrows at a time.

CAMPAIGN AND TUTORIAL Learn the controls in a guided tutorial, then play six campaign missions across the frontier on Easy, Medium or Hard, each with its own goals, stars and badges.

SKIRMISH AGAINST THE COMPUTER Pick your civilization and your opponent, the River Valley, the Highland Pass or the Forest Frontier, a Small, Normal or Large map, and an Easy, Medium or Hard opponent. New to strategy games? Easy is a gentle first opponent: it builds slowly and its first attack comes late, so you have time to learn. Set the map seed, the game speed, friendly fire and how much of the map starts revealed.

FREE ONLINE MULTIPLAYER Browse the open rooms and join one, or open a public or private room and share its code, then face a rival 1v1 on any of the three maps or a random one. No account is needed: you sign in anonymously the first time, and an optional account keeps your player and name on another iPhone. Rooms chat with fixed phrases only.

MAKE YOUR OWN SCENARIOS Build maps and missions in the scenario editor on your device: paint terrain, place towns and armies, and set objectives and triggers. Play the built-in arena and tower defence scenarios, and send your own scenario files to friends.

PLAYS OFFLINE The campaign, the tutorial, skirmishes and the scenario editor all work in airplane mode. Save at any time, or continue from the auto-save.
