Simple Lands Online is a fresh addition to the Google Play Store, having recently transitioned from a browser-based game to a mobile platform. This text-based strategy game combines nostalgic old-school elements with modern twists, offering players a chance to build their empire from the ground up. The game strikes a balance between risk and reward in its battle mechanics. If an attack fails, players won't lose more than 25% of their forces, allowing them to regroup and strategize without total devastation. Similarly, on defense, losses are capped at 20%, ensuring that even after a hit, players have resources to fall back on. This system encourages thoughtful strategy over mindless attacks.
In Simple Lands Online, you'll command infantry, archers, and cavalry across five distinct regions, where every decision impacts your progress. The game introduces an espionage system, allowing you to train spies to either pilfer resources or gather crucial intelligence on your adversaries. However, be wary—enemies with watchtowers can catch your spies, adding another layer of strategy to your gameplay.
Starting with minimal resources, you'll need to manage your troops, resources, and navigate alliances and rival factions. Building your empire involves researching technology to enhance production and training more units to strengthen your army. Combat is central to the game, but so is the management of your kingdom, which includes assigning workers, boosting production, and optimizing your resources.
The game keeps track of your battles through detailed logs, helping you plan future moves or seek revenge if necessary. Simple Lands Online is free to play and available on the Google Play Store.
What’s Next?
The developers are looking to expand the game with various server types as it grows in popularity. Plans include introducing permanent servers and possibly speed servers. Currently, the game operates on a seasonal basis, ensuring a fresh start for all players after each reset, keeping the competition fair and exciting.
Simple Lands Online evokes memories of games like Kingdoms of Chaos, and as its name implies, it offers a straightforward gameplay experience that doesn't penalize players for trying new strategies.
