It has a more fluid game-play than the first kingdom game and has a longer playing time by bringing an island theme. The game challenges people while playing and pushes strategy and thinking. I had a really hard time playing a game with only 3 buttons, but then it's fun to play when you solve the logic of the kingdom series as someone who has already played the first game. The mounts in the game are diversified and the white unicorn makes your job easier by making you money. The only downside of the game is time. Sometimes you don't know what you're doing and it's a waste of time for someone who doesn't know. The number of villagers and structures may not be as desired, and time can be wasted on this. Also, you wait 2-3 days as a game day cycle for the ship to arrive at the port.
