A fantasy real time strategy and medieval-themed game, Majesty: The Fantasy Kingdom is not at all easy to play. The game basically involves the strategical placing of various enchanted towers as well as heroes to combat waves of monsters. A bit confusing at the beginning, the game proves to be rather addictive later on.
Majesty: The Fantasy Kingdom is a time-consuming game to play, given the sheer length and complicated nature of the app. This game demands a fair amount of patience and time to be invested on it but will not disappoint those who do so.
As far as the game graphics go, Majesty… has a simplistic top-down display where everything is rendered in cute faux-3D fashion. The game is also tastefully accompanied by soothing tunes that enchant the gameplay experience.
All in all, priced at $2.99 Majesty: The Fantasy Kingdom is a great game to have.

“Majesty: The Fantasy Kingdom Sim” is a vast magical world where you are honored with the crown of a tiny fairytale kingdom. When you become the head of the country all the responsibility for the land's prosperity rests on your royal shoulders. You will have to fight various enemies and monsters, explore new territories, manage economic and scientific developments and solve a heap of unusual and unexpected tasks. For example, what will you do when all the gold in the kingdom transforms into cookies? Or how will you bring back the trolls who robbed caravans and whose disappearance ruins the economy of the country?
