This game is definitely worth the asking price. If you have an active imagination like me, then the text is very good for directing an elaborate daydream where you're a ruler. It can also be fairly challenging until you learn how everything works (A process that is enjoyable).
Still, after becoming a massive empire with abundant resources, the game does begin to repeat itself. After defeating all the kingdoms opposing you, you have the option of spawning new kingdoms to fight. Sadly, for me, these new kingdoms spawn with a level of strength that are easy to beat and it just becomes a number game where you're skipping text and watching your numbers jump up.
I suppose my only gripe is that it could use more end game content and randomness to assist in preventing or delaying the point at which it becomes repeatable. Additionally, I would like to see an event chain you could start for marriage and children. Like say, marrying an opposing kingdom's royalty to unite the two lands or form a strong alliance. OR watching events of your heir growing and maybe setting up political marriages for them as well. Lastly, to make battles less monotonous, maybe add random events for battle that could assist or impair your side. Like a dragon showing up and toasting both sides, such fog that neither side could find one another and they wondered past each other to battle another day, A beam of light shining on your army or their's and a random god declares a hero among them (lol). Or to make you feel more like a master strategist, maybe have a list of random terrains, weather, and or factors that let you choose a list of strategies to go with that might help your battle if you choose well, or hinder it if you choose poorly, and of course and option to toggle them off for people who prefer less randomness.
Overall, I got 40 enjoyable hours out of an $8 game. This is 100% satisfaction and, as you developer is very active, I even have the option of replaying it again later to enjoy any changes he has added. If you are pondering the purchase, ponder no more, this is a game you can enjoy for hours and hours.
