Shadow Kings is a new MMORTS for the iOS and Android platforms, originally for play on browsers by Goodgame Studios. You build a city, which is heavily customizable especially by the standards of this type of genre, allowing you to shape it however you want and to grow it from a little base into a huge military center. All this, of course, is for the fun of fighting other players, then forming alliances and fighting each other in groups. Read on for some tips and tricks for Shadow Kings!

Your city starts off small, and while expansions can be cheap to begin with, there will come times when you are stuck without having enough resources to afford them. When this happens, and yet you still want to build new buildings, crowd your current batch of buildings as close together as possible, without leaving any space in between them. Then build on the new space that you create by doing that.
Wood, stone and food are the three resources in the game. They are automatically collected from your woodcutter’s mill, your stone quarry and your farms, so all that you have to do is build the maximum amount possible, and upgrade them as high as possible in order to maximize your output. Build more houses as well to increase your population (and upgrade them for the same reason) but watch your happiness, as it will decrease as your population increases.
When you fight against someone, multiple fights take place – one on the left flank of the castle, one on the right flank, one in front of the castle gate and one in the courtyard. Assign attackers to all three, and assign the maximum amount (with the use of tools to aid in tough battles). The courtyard battle will consist of all of the remaining attackers and defenders from each battle.
Outpost battles are a little bit more straightforward, with only one battle front. Capture as many outposts as possible in order to increase resource output, and build manors to hire more governors. Once you unlock the generals’ tent, as well, you will be able to use generals for an extra edge in battle.
The workshop will enable you to build military tools, which are good for limited uses, unlike troops. Once you have the Mystic tower you’ll be able to spy on and sabotage other players and on shadow camps to see what they have before you fight them. Don’t neglect your own defenses, either. In addition to keeping your castle walls and flanks filled, upgrade your walls and towers to strengthen them. And build a hideout so that you can make resources impermeable to enemy players.
