great, short game. complete it in 15 minutes, have a good time.

upsides:
-definitive version of Kingdom.
-more content to explore than "new lands"
-kingdom, the concept, is very good
-three keyed, one handed gameplay
*(except for a single mount, which requires shift for it's ability)
-the seasons change in this version
-each island is revisit-able with all it's upgrades

downsides:
-the features added are not worth the increase in price, especially for pre-existing users.
-plenty of bugs and hacky implementations
*walls are drawn beneath bridges before appearing above ground.
*leaf texture looks glitchy under rare conditions
*knights can fail to enter a ship if you leave before every unit has arrived at the boat
*etc
-winter is "do nothing and hope to live"
*winter does pass in this version
-making mistakes on an island like removing too many trees or losing diamonds can only be fixed by restarting the campaign.

it's a great puzzle and there IS a way to determine each killer and identity.
don't bruteforce anything, not even the chinese topmen.

you can only solve this puzzle once, but it's worth the price on discount (12,50) or full price if you just want a great puzzle and love the aestic (i know i did).

The range of your weapon, when you hit your weapon, whom you will hit, these are all unclear and leads to an unpleasent gaming experience.

Also, the guard patrols are not always enforced the same way, resulting in an active guard letting a murder happen without a concernible reason.

slap/stab fests happen near guards because 1 stun will lead to a cavalcade of slaps and backstabs resulting in some triple stunlocks.


not worth 5 dollars. not worth the 20 retail.

A powerfull experience better experienced than described.
I'm afraid the more you know about it when going in, the less good the game will be.
Certainly worth the price (maybe with discount).

it might be tricky to find 4 people with equal skill levels but definetly worth the few bucks for several afternoons of brawling.

biggest downside: you HAVE to unlock new weapons by playing tons of games.

game for poeple who want to get better at games.wish this had cards :D.
