Rise of Kingdoms is a free-to-play mobile MMO RTS (real-time strategy) game for PC (Windows, Mac) and mobile (Android, iOS) inspired by history. In Rise of Kingdoms, players choose one out of 11 civilizations to govern over and expand into a flourishing empire through different historical periods of time stretching from the Stone Age to the Middle Ages. Alongside the daily tasks of settlement construction and resource management, players ensure their power of influence by strengthening their army and employing real historical figures such as Julius Caesar, Joan of Arc and Sir Lancelot as commanders to lead their troops into real time battles. Once ready, players can join an alliance, tapping into an endless reserve of battle ready forces, income through shared assets and assistance with research, creating a completely new game dynamic.
