It's a great game and you'll have fun... at least until some p2w players or zergs run you down :)
Lame, time wasting mobile game which has nothing to do with "Stronghold" beside its aesthetics.
Seems to be p2w too.
No thanks..
This game works purely on a pay to win basis, otherwise it requires a massive amount of time that no one would dedicate to a game this old without the support. We'll see how the remasters go.
Stronghold Kingdoms
Pros-
#1.The game itself might have been cool when it was more populated?
#2.The game is free now
Cons-
#1.Pay to win
#2.Player base is dead
The Bottom Line -
Even if you were a pay to play/win player I still would pick something else.Pass on this.
Buy/try this game bellow it is much better for skirmish castle building.

This game is partially p2p, pay to win. That can be somewhat offset with skill. Many of the larger worlds are dominated by "old boy networks" from different real world geographic or nation groups. Outsiders may not do well. It is not uncommon for members of a losing side in a war to be hounded off a world by the winners. Leaders in the game called Faction Generals and House Marshals often base their leadership styles on their home countries instead of adapting to an international environment. This can be very irritating. I can not recommend this game which I have played for over seven years.
Note: I use the standalone client hence why my hour count is so low.
I have to be brutally honest with anyone who is thinking about trying this game. I've been playing it for 10-11 years. It started out fun and enjoyable. I like the entire series of Stronghold. Once they released it on steam it opened the flood gates to heavy cheating like botting, modified clients, etc.
The current state of the game is that only 2 types of people can survive and enjoy it.
(1) heavy carders. I would estimate $100-150 a month to keep pace.
(2) multiple accounts and the use of botting as the alternative. It reduces amount of cards you buy
Fair warning if you are not either of these two types. Anyone that is extreme at either or both will absolutely stomp you. Pay2Win or Cheat2Win.
Game is full of hackers and russian bots that sell cards for a lot cheaper then what they are worth ingame not to mention how slow and pay to win this game is.
Reading below will save your life. This is the most valuable negative comment ever made;
I personally hate firefly. after what they done to SHK. Their money lust made me hate them. money money money money money p2w p2w p2w p2w p2w. IMPORTANT: You will always be *DOMINATED* by pay2win players no matter what your play style is. unless you start pay half of your wage.
Even if you are rich, Admin friendly enemies are everywhere and they will get you banned so they can easly raze your villages no matter how rich, tough, clever you are. theres no power over admin friends.
Here's the proof of how the game is a sin city; https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B4_1FZ4rD_k&ab_channel=starreaper1
Edit: Lost all of my progress due to inactivity after paying a lot of money. Not Recommended!!
So good, yet so addictive.
Amazing gameplay, there are a lot of things you can focus on while playing Stronghold Kingdoms and that's good. You can be aggressive and conquer or be more diplomatic and chose your alliances and build connections inside the world via factions and groups. Even if someone takes over all your villages and you have to start from the beginning it's not a big deal, as long as you know the basics you can get what you lost in no time. Overall this is a great game with many things to discover as you play, you can go at your own pace and build great medieval villages and castles.
SHORT VERSION:
This game is P2W and rewarding for those with lots of money and time to spend.
LONG VERSION:
If you have time and a lot of money go and play it. Like the older Stronghold games, it is fun and nostalgic. The beginning phase is the only thing that is fun about the game though. The game offers a lot of potential allowing you to develop villages and castle defenses and seeking out resources via scouting/harvesting. But that is where the similarities to the older games end and the bad mechanics come into play.
YOU WILL HIT A PAY WALL.
Once you run out of the starter cards EVERYTHING will slow tremendously. You do get free card packs over time but it is not enough to compete with P2W players. Even worse, P2W players use their influence(money) to buy fast track card/troop packs to overrun whole regions single-handedly. You can try and just be casually/economically minded building more villages for trade and resources (like I tried) and not participate in the wars. BUT you will get involved one way or the other.
If you don't align yourself with the dominating house, or even if you stay neutral, then you basically get ransacked and decimated 24/7, sometimes even after your starting shield is depleted. The servers progress through time intervals called Ages and whichever House controls more regions wins that server after the Ages end. Fast-track cards are only good for the server they are bought on and cannot be used on multiple servers. This forces you to buy multiple iterations of the same packs for new servers. After a House wins the last Age, the server resets which erases hours of progress/research, causes the player to start fresh, and restarts the slow progression of building villages which brings back the pay wall. This game can be played for free but, as mentioned, if you want to compete in any way you will be forced to pay real money for cards that are only good for one server at a time. It would be slightly better if you had a pool of cards you bought that could be utilized on other servers but sadly this is not the case. This game forces F2P players to become P2W, and even then, the victor is the one with more time and deeper pockets.
Awesome game, far too addictive and expensive.
It requires you to buy very expensive, way over priced cards if you want to get the most out of this game.
It would be a truely awesome game if those cards where cheaper and actually useful, i mostly got cards that did very little for the price I paid.
My perfect kind of game though sadly not my banks.
Should be called Stronghold's Cashcow Kingdoms
Please dont not waist your time and money on this game, its not worth even trying it.
I'll admit, I certainly played this game a lot. However, I can't really recommend it. The game centers around building and protecting villages. They can be attacked by other players and the AI. That may seem like a really simplistic view of the game, but that's the core. There is not much else to it than that. Every action a player takes is for their village. There are some interesting upgrades players can get through research and buildings, but it all takes time. For me, that is what this game boiled down to. Time. A big ol' swirling drain full of time. Players can pay to accelerate the process, but why bother? The rewards are simply not worth the time required.
TL;DR - Takes too much time to do anything.
6/10
Interesting game particularly early in the play. I have not played the new world as yet but I hope it is very different. It is difficult to play unless you pay a lot of money since some players spend fortunes on being the best. It can be slow particularly for research and development and although I understand that they need to keep your interest the speed bit is the worst part. I have played for 2-3 years on most worlds so I like but I have slowed down on spending because longer term not worth it. It is good when you get freebies but !!! 7 out of 10
This game is best played in conjunction with using TeamSpeak and Skype to coordinate strategy with your group of friends. This is a 24/7 game. You cannot just leave the game and come back to it days later and expect things to be as you left them.
What I like best: The social interaction. You meet people from all over the world and of different age groups. Enjoy leading a faction and/or being a house marshal, build villages, or work on leaderboard scores and quests. Trying to get your faction or house to be number one is very fun. If you are very social and enjoy spending a lot of time playing on the computer, you will love this game.
What I like least: It is a "pay to win" game and the customer support department doesn't really care about issues with the game function. The more crowns and cards you have, the better you can do in the game. If you don't play a premium token you won't do as well in the game. The Firefly support attitude comes across as, "I don't care." You cannot have other members of your household play the game (your account will be banned). When I argued a point with them, politely and with no swearing, after a temporary ban, they permanently banned my son's account. When I experienced what I thought was a bug in the game and sent in the report and explained what I did to resolve it, they sent me a generic message asking me to explain the issue more and explain what I did to resolve it. I had to remessage and explain I already did that (meaning ... they didn't even bother to read the first message).
Update: I had another "bug" issue to contact support about. I received a generic reply and they said they could "discern no error," even after I submitted screen shots of the reports and pointed out what happened. All they did was politely tell me, "Oh well," and didn't do anything to resolve the problem. Not a satisfied customer right now.
Please do not support this game. At first it seems like a cool game and fun. But after you get into it you cannot really do anything worth while unless you have no life and can play 24/7 and if you are willing to spend hundreds of dollars if not thousands on buying cards. The staff that support this game are crooks all the way up to the producers. They will do things with your account and say too bad so sad we messed you up it is our fault but too bad you can suffer no matter how much they messed you up or how much money you spent or time on the game.
To even be in the top houses which seem to be all be run by the most arrogant ignorant gang like thugs. People seem to support and follow these people yet a lot of these people are not even good at the game or are very nice people or even have any kind of good leadership qualities. Yet people follow them and they run the show like a cult. And if you are not in it forget ever winning. After years of play you really end up with a bad experiance in the end. Takes a year just to finish the first glory round even if you do make it and the map is dominated. Maps usualy become totaly dominated by one group of people and thats it. Do not expect fair play from players or the staff.
Do Not Buy this game and waste your time and money. So many better games out there.
Stronghold Kingdoms is a fun Stronghold game. It does tend to take a long time for things to get started and finish building though. This is a really fun game, but it does have a lot of P2P aspects where it makes the game less-fun but I do recommend this game.
I've been part of stronghold kingdoms since it's early alpha stages, back when there were only a few of us and we all knew each other like neighbors. Therefore I can say that this game is a massive waste of your time.
I see innovation here - a lot of it. I see opportunities to play stronghold like never before, with an MMO idea all taking place on a large map where cooperation and diplomacy are key to victory in the world of thousands of players all with their own individual strongholds they too are building. The game still has all the customization that stronghold offered you as well, placing the walls, towers, gatehouses, moats, spikes, and more all wherever you want to. It also gives you the freedom to train and manually deploy your own troops both defensively in your castle and/or offensively to siege another. In fact, at the time I began testing this game and for some time afterwards, it was unbelievably fun. But since then it's been squashed into a payment-heavy hunk of crap.
"Cards" in the game are used to boost what you can do with no limit to how many you can use, as long as you can afford to spend real world money to get them. On top of that, you require to buy premium subscriptions just to play the game properly, or you'll be logging in every hour to do something when nothing queues up properly. Cards can be earned for free, yes, but they take a long time and are fully randomized. You can earn more for free per week, but that is locked behind not one, but TWO paywalls of buying subscriptions to the game. You must buy TWO subscription tokens in order to unlock the full range of cards. On top of that, cards can still be bought with REAL WORLD MONEY after you ALREADY had to spend REAL WORLD MONEY on buying a PREMIUM SUBSCRIPTION just to play the game properly. This is massively unbalanced and, as is common among MOBILE COW CLICKERS, can take you from the bottom of the pack to #1 on the leaderboard in a matter of minutes should you pay enough money. Nobody will, but the fact that it is a possibility means the game is massively unbalanced. Any game that makes it possible to advance from bottom to top within minutes cannot be considered free to play.
Outside of that, the game itself is barebones. Your castle management becomes minimal, as the tiny map areas and massively limited resources for each "village" means you will not be able to customize the village to look as you please, it's going to have to run for maximum efficiency, followed by waiting through timers and resource walls as you wait for enough resources or an open queue slot to continue. This game also has an issue of expansion, due to the extreme number of players - castles/villages can only be built on predetermined slots, and the number of people in the game makes it very difficult to expand peacefully without spending an absolute fortune of gold and leaving your new towns well outside your support range. Production lines are also removed now, with the only actual production being from wood/iron -> weapons. That's it. All other production chains, no matter how simple, have been ditched. To help slow you down, each time you build something, it raises its own construction cost and also increases the time required to build the next structure. So, don't go too fast - buy our shit instead!
This game offers so much room for innovation in the stronghold series. It makes me want to see a stronghold game taking place on a large meta-map managing multiple castles against various AI opponents or players doing similar things, but not in this fashion. I want to see it in a microtransaction-free, upfront paid game with no multi-day timers or subsctipitions or bullshit like that. This franchise NEEDS innovation, and the ideas behind stronghold kingdoms if applied to a paid game could provide it. But this just isn't it. All it does is makes you want to go play another stronghold game instead.
Avoid this.
Run a kingdom in the grand deserts of Florida, waiting endlessly for food, all from the comfort of your own toilet. Only recommended if you are rolling in the dollar bills. Will change my recommendation when my free Space Dollars run out.
Edit: FUNS OVER
Stronghold Kingdoms is a very unique MMO as it has the village building aspect like you would find in games like Banished, but with a fun twist with military and warfare.
Chose to fight for domination for your house on many different servers ( Worlds ) or play peacefully and build up your villages.
If you chose to make powerful allies or devious enemies, there will always be plenty of action in this game no matter what world you chose to play on.
Along with building up your villages you get the opportunity to run for sheriffship of your county, being the Governor of your province, or even King of the country! So there is always lots of competition ingame.
