A four-player fantasy board game brought to life, where every battle is fought out in real time with thousands of soldiers clashing on the table in front of you.
Kingdom Fall puts four kingdoms on one map. You expand across the board a turn at a time, like the board games you grew up with. Then every battle plays out for real, in an auto-battler with every soldier on the field.
Claim hex tiles, gather five resources on the roll of the dice, and grow towns into walled cities.
When armies meet, they fight it out in real time: deploy your troops, pick your stances, and watch.
It all happens on a table in a firelit hall, with your rivals sitting right across from you.
Kingdom Fall is played the way a board game should be: around a table. Four players take their seats in a firelit hall, each with their own figure, and when your turn comes, your figure leans over and throws the dice into the tray.
The board rises out of the sea in front of you, with the battlefield waiting in the tray right beside it.
Every turn starts with a roll. Each hex tile carries a number, and when it comes up, every tile you have claimed with that number pays out: wheat, wood, brick, gold and iron.
Spend it on buildings, roads and settlers. Raise towns into cities and ring them with timber, then stone. Short on something? Trade at the market, send caravans to the docks, or buy a spell from the wizard’s tower.
When armies meet, the dice are put aside. The second tray on the table becomes the battlefield, and every soldier you recruited takes the field. Not a number on a counter, but a soldier with their own sword, shield or bow.
Arrange your groups in the deployment window, choose who holds and who charges, then watch the clash unfold in real time. Battles run from a few dozen soldiers to thousands.
Every army marches behind a general who earns experience and climbs a skill tree, unlocking battle skills you trigger in the middle of a fight.
Elite units bring powers of their own: the Arcmage calls down a meteor, the Necromancer summons a demon hand that crushes a crowd and raises the dead, the Ancient Elf conjures a tornado, the Rune Priest drops falling swords. Between battles, the wizard’s tower sells spell cards: Lightning, Portal, Thief, Abundance and more.
Towns don’t fall quietly. Storm one and your army fights its way to the walls under a hail of arrows from the town itself, while the defender rushes fresh troops into the fight from inside.
Break the wall, bring the town down and watch it crumble into ruins on the board. There is only one way to win: be the last kingdom standing.
Five demon portals tear open around a huge map, and every third round a new wave walks out. The waves never stop, and they never get smaller.
Build, fortify and hold out as long as you can. Your score is the number of rounds you survive. Found a map you love? Share its seed and let your friends try their luck on the same land.
Each faction plays differently, with a bonus to lean on, a weakness to cover, and eight units of its own.
Settlers cost less and train faster, so humans spread across the map quicker than anyone.
Knight · Paladin · Arcmage
Weakness: buildings take two turns to raise.
Every time an elf wood tile pays out, a free Sprite or Satyr joins the garrison, and elves travel the forest’s edge as if it were a road.
Ranger · Ent · Ancient Elf
Weakness: units take two turns to recruit.
Link your towns into a tunnel network and move garrison troops between them at will. Mines cost less, too.
Iron Guard · Berserker · Rune Priest
Weakness: only two movement points a turn.
Win a battle and the horde rolls on: lower upkeep and two extra movement points.
Heavy Orc · Troll · Goblin Bomber
Weakness: the fewest buildings, and weaker walls in a siege.
Every resource your tiles pay raises a Zombie, and after a victory a quarter of your fallen rise again.
Giant Skeleton · Vampire · Necromancer
Weakness: on a roll of 7, pays every rival two resources.
Up to four players over Steam, in public, friends-only or invite-only lobbies. Bots fill any empty seat, and a turn timer keeps things moving.
Three difficulty levels, from a gentle Easy to a Hard opponent that plays by your rules: no peeking at your resources, no cheating.
Free-for-all, or two against two. Allies can’t attack each other, and a team is only beaten when both of its players are gone.
A classic continent, the Castle (four island homelands around a contested centre) or the Inland Sea, a ring of land around open water. Small, standard or large.
You against endless waves of demons pouring out of five portals. How many rounds can you last?
A fully voiced tutorial takes you from an empty ocean to your first siege, and the full rulebook is always one click away.
