Rise of Kingdoms: Lost Crusade

Civilization-building SIM game for smartphones

Rise of Kingdoms: Lost Crusade is a civilization SIM game heavily based on the ancient Egyptian empire. As it offers many accurate historical elements alongside a host of customization options, the fate of Egypt is placed in the hands of the player.

Having been influenced by classic simulation games, such as the extremely popular SIM City 2000, this top-down RPG allows users to create their very own mythical societies from the ground up. Players can also enjoy a fair amount of strategic flexibility in regard to the choices they make.

From clan to conquest

Players can select from 13 different civilizations. Each of these begins as a clan. It is then necessary to farm for resources, acquire skills, and strengthen armies in order to conquer the entire Nile delta eventually.

RTS elements

Rise of Kingdoms: Lost Crusade also incorporates elements of real-time strategy into the overall gameplay. Thus, it is possible to join ongoing online co-op battles at any time, providing additional opportunities to earn even more valuable rewards.

An all-in-one world map

Unlike some other SIM games, players can access a single top-down map. As well as areas that need to be conquered, it also displays different regions. This provides users with a greater degree of clarity when making important strategic decisions.

All about flexibility

Other platforms, such as Plan B: Terraform, have become extremely popular due to their flexible open-world mechanics — and Rise of Kingdoms: Lost Crusade is certainly no different. Whether allying with Cleopatra or battling with Imhotep, conquering ancient empires can now be accomplished using a humble smartphone.
