About This Game

KNIGHTS and MERCHANTS recreates the era of the Middle Ages. Apart from the purely fictitious geography of our world, all game elements and scenes are based on the Anglo-Saxon period, 1200 A.D. And we haven't used imaginary elements like fabled creatures, either. The player takes on the role of an ordinary captain in the Palace Guard. A conspiracy against the king catapults the captain into a situation where he finds himself responsible for the defence of the last royal province. This is all that remains of the shattered kingdom, which has been split into numerous small principalities and fiefdoms. And now even the king himself, ensconced in his capital, is threatened by enemy armies. This is the starting point of your Middle Ages adventure. Now you must win back all those provinces which once belonged to your king.

THE SHATTERED KINGDOM:

After many battles, a former kingdom has been divided into many small principalities and earldoms. The kingís troops were pushed back into one last royal province, and the rulers of the other provinces waged terrible, destructive wars against one another. The whole land fell into a state of chaos and now the former royal capital itself is under
siege by the armies of the rebel lords. You belong to the last remaining group of loyal kingís men, and have been commanded to go to the king in view of the imminent
attack.

THE PEASANTS REBELLION:

Build a prosperous settlement with a complete economy. Arm your troops and meet the enemy on the battle field! Master these tasks and the King’s subjects will be able to live in peace and freedom again.

Oldie but goodie, as they say. I had a flashback of this game I used to play as a kid and I was happy to find it here on Steam. Honestly, I don't think anyone reading this came here not knowing what KaM is, but let's make a review anyway. It's a "Settlers clone" with very appealing graphics and animations that still look pretty good even to this day. The progression of your village is fun to watch, albeit it is very slow. The construction of your roads, buildings or farm plots depend solely on your labourers and serfs, two units who are absolutely necessary for you to have in great numbers in order to succeed. The labourers build while the serfs deliver the required materials. You can really hinder your progress by planning too many constructions at the same time, since labourers willl always favor roads and farm plots over buildings. Serfs deliver one ressource at a time, so get ready to wait as they pile up stone and planks one by one before you can finally construct a building. Yo...

It is a very old game that I played some 25 years ago. It's challenging, a bit clunky (the knights not always do what you want), and the difficulty level is rather high, but it's a lovely, still playable game, and winning gives a lot of satisfaction. Be prepared to play long hours and sometimes you'll have to start a level over as a bad town design is not forgiving.
