I usually download new apps from the App Store before going to bed to that when I wake up I get to try them out at once (I make my internet sound so slow, but there is no denying it). I didn’t know what it was, I skipped reading the whole description. I noticed it had a high rating and an adorable icon, so I immediately downloaded it. All I know was that it was a game. By now, you must have realized how visual I am. It only took a glance for me to decide to download it.
Moving on, when I tried the game out, I went “le gasp!” with a complementary expression on my face. It was after naming my castle that I realized I was about to play a 3d and medieval version of a favorite of mine, Tiny Tower. I was expecting Tiny Tower replicas but was in denial, and now it has come.
It’s called Lil’ Kingdom, also available in Google play. A visually-adorable game with fantasy/medieval-themed design with a little more features than Tiny Tower. It plays exactly like Tiny Tower; you build new floors and assign a type for that floor, get citizens (the characters are called citizens as compared to TT’s bitizens) to become residents and hire them, special visitors that offer special help, usually, to speed things up. As for their different features, they have a princess that gives you quest (the counterpart of TT’s quest) to gain bonus items and gold, they have a jester to ‘help you and the princess out’, but I prefer to think of him as just a doorman. You can also make special floors, like a dragon hatching floor. Hatching a dragon gets you, duh, a dragon that can automatically restock all items in a floor but has a cooldown timer.
Honestly, it can get messy visually because once you get more floors and more citizens, there are just too many tiny things moving around… too colorful tiny things. I am not too fond of the font and colors they used on the floor types. Adorable designs, but it can make or break a game no matter how cute. Maybe some minor adjustments and it can improve. Tiny Tower is still the boss.
