monarchy is a minimalist 2D strategy side-scrolling game focused on exploration, resource management, survival and conquest. We’ve put together some tips and tricks to help you succeed and build a prosperous kingdom:
Master the economy and expansion
- Coins are everything: Coins are used for almost every action in the game – recruiting citizens, building defenses, expanding your base, and more.
- Expand gradually: Do not expand too much in the initial phase. Focus first on a stable base with good defenses and revenue streams, then gradually expand outwards.
- Recruit regularly: Recruiting more villagers is crucial as they can be used as builders, archers or farmers. Prioritize builders and archers early on to maintain defenses and gather resources.
- hunting: Use your archer pendant and go hunting in the forest where you will find many animals. Take the economy into your own hands, but beware of sunset.
Balance between defense and economy
- Strengthen defenses at sunset: Build walls and catapult towers to keep enemies away. Focus on improving your outer walls and supporting them with traps or towers.
- Create a balanced economy: Invest in farms and farmhouses. Farms provide a steady source of income and houses provide steady population growth.
Understand the seasons
- Winter is harsh: Hunting is restricted in winter. You have to spend your coins more carefully as coins become harder to come by.
- Summer: There are many deer and rabbits in the forest, which provide you with a stable source of income.
- Autumn: As the leaves fall, the animal population also decreases. You will find fewer animals to hunt.
conquest
- Prepare before the attack: Destroying the enemy requires knights, arbalists, catapults and a lot of preparation. Always be aware if you are near a full moon, as retaliatory waves combined with full moon attack waves can be costly.
- Use the monolith: Every time you upgrade the base, the monolith will activate and you can choose the next level upgrade. These upgrades are designed to support your strategy. So choose them based on how you want to play the game in this playthrough.
- Upgrade your mount: Throughout the forest you will find other mounts that are far superior to the mount you start with. It is almost important that you discover and acquire them to manage your kingdom more efficiently.
Manage your time efficiently
- Scout during the day: Explore and collect resources during the day. Stay within the safety of your walls at night to avoid enemies.
- Prepare for nighttime waves: Plan your actions so that you can retreat to the walls of the base before nightfall. This way you will be safe and able to adapt to the size of the enemy attack.
With patience and careful planning, you’ll be well on your way to building a resilient and prosperous kingdom!
