Simple Lands Online is an engaging text-based strategy game that has recently made its debut on the Google Play Store following its initial run as a browser game. This game offers a fresh start on a newly reset server, bringing a mix of old-school charm and modern gameplay mechanics.
What’s Simple Lands Online?
In Simple Lands Online, you begin your journey by constructing your empire from the ground up. The game masterfully balances the elements of risk and reward in combat scenarios. Should your offensive strategy fail, you won't face complete annihilation; your losses are limited to a maximum of 25%, allowing you to regroup and strategize anew without losing everything.
When defending your territory, you're safeguarded against losing more than 20% of your forces, ensuring that even after a strong enemy attack, you'll have resources to recover. This feature encourages thoughtful planning over mindless aggression.
Lead your forces, including infantry, archers, and cavalry, through battles across five distinct regions. Each decision you make can significantly impact your journey. The game introduces an espionage system, where you can train spies to either pilfer resources from your adversaries or gather crucial intelligence. However, be wary of enemy watchtowers, as they can thwart your spies' efforts.
Starting with minimal resources, you'll gradually expand your empire, manage your troops, and navigate the complex web of alliances and rival factions. Your progress hinges on efficient resource management, technological advancements to enhance production, and the training of more units to strengthen your military.
While combat is a central aspect of Simple Lands Online, managing your kingdom is equally important. This involves assigning workers, optimizing production, and maximizing your available resources. The game also provides battle logs that record your victories and defeats, aiding in future strategic planning or seeking retribution for past losses.
You can explore Simple Lands Online on the Google Play Store, where it's available to play for free.
What’s Next?
The developers are looking to the future with plans to introduce additional server types as the game grows in popularity. These could include permanent servers or speed servers, catering to different player preferences. Currently, the game operates on a seasonal basis, ensuring a level playing field with each server reset.
Simple Lands Online draws comparisons to classics like Kingdoms of Chaos, but with a straightforward approach that encourages experimentation without harsh penalties.
