Kingdoms is a clever tile-laying game by top eurogame designer, Reiner Knizia. In a medieval kingdom, you must scout out resources and hazards to decide where to build your mightiest castles. Commit too soon and you might discover a tribe of ogres right next door, but commit too late, and your opponents will grab up all the real estate!

Six different opponents, each with their own personality, challenge you at a variety of difficulty levels to make the game very replayable.

Kingdoms is built on the same successful MobileEuroCard platform that was used to create Reiner Knizias High Society and Reiner Knizias Money. Simple gestures allow you to grab and move tiles. Everything is animated, for a colorful play experience.

This newest version uses Game Center for leaderboards and achievements. We plan multiplayer play for a future release.

Pros and cons of Reiner Knizia's Kingdoms app for iPhone and iPad

Reiner Knizia's Kingdoms app good for

Good implementation with a killer AI but dont set AI speed option to No Delay as it causes the game to crash almost instantly after starting or resuming play. Plus, one suggestion: PLEASE make the numbers on the tiles larger. They are almost impossible to make out!
My favorite Reiner Knizia app. Fun game play, easy to learn, challenging a.I. makes this a perfect game.

Some bad moments

Very disappointed that there is no multiplayer of any kind. Local multiplayer is the main reason I purchase boardgames on the iPad.
Sadly, this very fun board game has been poorly translated. The tiles are tiny and handling them is very buggy. I hope this app is upgraded shortly.
The game looks much like an interesting cross between Reversi, tic-tac-toe, and something new. Unfortunately, the single page of instructions references value cards that I only seem to get one of in the later levels, while the computer players get them frequently. Also, it mentions three special cards that I never receive and no mention of what they do. The computer seems to get them and they appear to affect the scoring... always to my detriment!
A fun, quick tile laying game. Really needs online opponents, but is a solid four without it.
I already own the board game so I knew I would like it, and I do. It would great if there were some knightly sounds and music to go along and possibly a richer color palette to enhance the game a bit. Otherwise, a good translation.
I hadnt played Kingdoms before I picked up the iPhone/iPad version. It is pretty easy to learn from the instructions, and its a great board game! The interface works very well. Everything is easy to see and move.
