Kingdoms and Castles vs Patron
Kingdoms and Castles
Kingdoms and Castles is a fun medieval city building game developed by the indie games company, Lion Shield. In this game, you'll get to not only build and develop your very own villages around your castle, but you'll also need to defend it from outside invaders. Being the leader, it is up to you to ensure that your people get enough food and supplies to survive the day-to-day in addition to the occasional raider and dragon attacks. How you optimize your cities is also another fun aspect of the gameplay as it provides you with plenty of population-boosting structures to build.Despite its blocky looks, Kingdoms and Castles is a surprisingly in-depth medieval-themed city-building and management game. If you enjoy other games of the same genre, you'll definitely like this game.
Patron
Patron is a medieval-themed city-builder that is quite similar to Banished. In this game, you play as a pioneer sent by your King to colonize a new region. With a group of peasants to help, it is up to you to build a town from the ground up and develop it into one of the most prosperous colonies of the empire!The game is all about optimizing production chains and subsequently, pursuing advancements. So, at the beginning, it’s important to produce enough raw materials so you can have enough materials to “fuel” your other production facilities in order to craft more profitable items. As your town expands, you’ll need to make sure your production scales up accordingly, be it by upgrading existing structures or building new ones. This is where the challenge really comes in.
Of course, besides upgrades and expansions, you’ll want to invest in research so you could unlock better and, hence, more productive buildings, as well as new production facilities which will then allow you to produce items that are usually more luxurious and lucrative to trade. From time to time, you will receive various edicts from the King or news of certain events. You’ll then be expected to choose between the two decisions provided.
All in all, Patron is definitely a much better version of Banished in every way, and this saying something since I’ve enjoyed playing Banished. This game’s a solid medieval city-builder with a nice level of difficulty which matches what a midcore gamer like me can handle. The game is definitely worth the cost!
