About the Game

Desert Kingdoms 2 is a minimal medieval real-time strategy game.

In the desert there are only a few waypoints that can be settled.
Conquer these and expand settlements there.
Destroy the other kingdoms and become the sole ruler of the desert.



Manage resources like wood, stone and iron, develop villages, and conquer enemy kingdoms in procedurally generated skirmish maps.
Develop cities to build large buildings, like Siege Workshops.
So you can tear enemy kingdoms apart.

Features:

* Skirmish mode with procedurally generated maps
* Different unit types with strengths and weaknesses
* Develop villages with different buildings
* Pause the game at any time if it gets too hectic or
* speed up time if you're waiting for something.
* Develop your settlements from a small hamlet to a village to a city.

Hamlet – Village – Town

Hamlet small settlement with a few building sites where basic resources can be mined

Village more space for buildings and special resources. Can mine advanced resources.

City Space for large buildings, but unable to mine resources



Defend settlements from marauding hordes and enemy attacks.
