Simple Lands Online, a new addition to the Google Play Store, has just been reset to a fresh server, offering a text-based strategy experience that combines old-school charm with modern gameplay elements. Originally available as a browser game, it now invites players to immerse themselves in empire-building from the ground up.
In Simple Lands Online, you can start crafting your empire from scratch. The game strikes a perfect balance between risk and reward in battles. If an attack fails, your losses are capped at 25%, allowing you to regroup without losing your entire army. On the defensive side, you won't lose more than 20% of your forces even if your stronghold is hit. This mechanic encourages strategic thinking over mindless spamming of attacks.
Lead your infantry, archers, and cavalry across five distinct regions, where every decision you make can alter the course of your empire. The espionage system adds an intriguing layer, allowing you to train spies to either steal resources from your enemies or gather intelligence on their strength. However, be cautious, as enemy watchtowers can catch your spies in the act.
Starting with nothing, you'll progress by managing your troops and resources, navigating alliances, and dealing with rival factions. The game emphasizes not just combat but also kingdom management, where you'll assign workers, enhance production, and optimize your resources to strengthen your empire.
Battle logs keep track of your victories and defeats, aiding in planning your next move or plotting revenge if things didn't go your way last time. Simple Lands Online is free to play and available on the Google Play Store.
What’s Next?
The developers have plans to expand with various server types as the game grows in popularity. This includes the possibility of permanent servers or speed servers. Currently, the game operates on a seasonal basis, ensuring that every player starts on an even footing after each reset.
Simple Lands Online evokes memories of games like Kingdoms of Chaos, and true to its name, it offers a straightforward yet rewarding experience that doesn't penalize players for experimenting with different strategies.
