We designed Stronghold Kingdoms to be the first fully fledged PvP (player versus player) strategy MMO RTS for mobile devices. As a developer we’re best known for the core Stronghold series, which sees you besiege friends and war against AI opponents like The Wolf. With Kingdoms we’re taking Stronghold online, giving players an immersive medieval game world populated by real players, war and political strife. Firefly is a small independent developer with a lot of respect for our players, so we’d love to hear your thoughts on Kingdoms! Please try the game out for yourself (it’s free to play) and send us a message using one of the community links above. Thanks for playing from everyone at Firefly Studios! Please Note: Stronghold Kingdoms is a free to play MMO RTS, however players are able to purchase game items using real money via in-app purchases. If you don’t wish to use this feature you can add authentication for in-app purchases on your Android device and enjoy a completely free to play experience. Stronghold Kingdoms also requires a network connection to play. Like the game? Please support us with a 5-star rating!
