Kinghill fuses the strategy of a worker placement game with the drama and tension of a deck-building card battler to create a fantasy game like no other. Two rival kingdoms are locked in a deadly battle for survival – play on your own or with a friend to determine who's worthy of the Moonstones' incredible power! Train your workers, gather valuable resources, and recruit legendary heroes as you muster your forces for battle. Then – when the time's right – take the fight to their castle! But be careful you don't leave yourself open for a powerful counterattack… Your decisions unfold over nine turns to produce a rewarding campaign that can be enjoyed in 90 minutes or less. There's much to learn if you want to succeed, as the tides of battle shift around you. Adjust your tactics accordingly to come out on top, with many possible routes to victory. Some secrets will only be uncovered after multiple playthroughs, with dozens of powerful card interactions, devastating spells, and mighty units awaiting discovery. Lead your kingdom to victory in Kinghill!
