Renewing resources are indicated by a little timer, from which the player is able to read how much time is left until he can collect the resource again.
Small improvements compared to the first part are also a welcome addition to My Kingdom for the Princess 2. It simply feels more rewarding to think of a new successful strategy, than progressing successfully by mere clicking. In My Kingdom for the Princess 2 you can get stuck if you make a wrong decision in the beginning of a level, but you definitely learn from your mistakes, which prevents any frustration in those cases. The more helpful or worthwhile the power-up, the longer you have to wait for it be activated. In each level you have a fixed variety of the latter, which get activated on a regular basis, indicated by a green time bar. This already satisfying complexity is increased by the clever implementation of power-ups. You can train additional workers, collect resources, and construct buildings such as a sawmill, barracks, a storehouse, or a hunting lodge to progress, but you have to prioritize and think strategically to get ahead as effectively as possible. Each action requires a certain number of one, two, or all three resources in this game, namely gold, food, and wood, and of course a worker who performs the actions. While you had to rebuild an entire kingdom in the first game, you now will have to do favors for the various characters one the five different islands to progress, which boils down to tasks like collecting resources, removing obstacles, chasing away animals and bandits, constructing buildings that produce resources, finishing roads, and completing bridges. It is nearly impossible to fail levels, which will be a relief for players who prefer slower paces, but it is really hard to finish levels during day (meaning in “gold” time), or even beat the scores of the developers, which are also displayed and a wonderful motivation for experts and high achievers. It will take the player roughly seven hours to finish the game, and this estimation does not include replaying levels, which will be more common than you might think, even for time management veterans. My Kingdom for the Princess 2 features a whopping 60 levels on five different islands, each of those five locations consisting of ten regular levels, greatly varying landscapes and tasks, as well as two mini-games. The dwarf Longbeard kidnaps Helen, and Arthur has to embark on a long and dangerous journey to save his Princess, with the help of some extraordinary.
From then on things only get worse for the couple. Arthur and his beloved Princess Helen are on their honeymoon on an atoll in the South sea, when they find their travelling balloon ripped to pieces. The storyline is even more quirky and entertaining than that of the first part. The innovative mixture of click management and building simulation still works perfectly, and some new twists along with engaging mini-games ensure a pleasant experience. Still an original, highly challenging strategy clickfest.Īfter rebuilding the kingdom in the first game, Knight Arthur is back for another adventure in My Kingdom for the Princess 2 by Nevosoft.
