The fourth production in the Reigns cycle, developed by Nerial and Devolver Digital, in collaboration with HBO.

Reigns: Kings & Queens
Strategy 20 September 2018
A production that comprises all elements of Reigns as well as Reigns: Her Majesty - popular games that mix card game, strategy and roguelike genres, in which the players have to make decisions that affect the entire kingdom they control.

Reigns: Her Majesty
Strategy 07 December 2017
A sequel to the popular multi-genre game, blending elements of logic puzzle, adventure, and strategy games with some roguelike aspects. Like in the first installment, the production was created by Nerial. Reigns 2 is set in a tongue-in-cheek version of the middle ages. The protagonist is a queen, who has just ascended to the throne, and your task is to keep her there for as long as possible. It is not easy, as you have to take care of your kingdom and make difficult decisions by announcing verdicts regarding important matters, developing the economy, and playing diplomatic and political games. The event cards are randomly generated and your choices shape the story. Sooner or later you make one mistake too many, which results in the queen's demise, while you have to play as her successor, who has to face the consequences of her predecessor's choices. The game features clear rules and intuitive controls system, in which you slide the cards to the left or right, thus making a positive or negative decision.
Reigns
Strategy 10 August 2016
A unique indie game by Nerial and Devolver Digital, and a combination of three genres: strategy, roguelike, and card games. Reigns takes place in an exaggerated medieval setting. You play as a king, and your objective is to manage your kingdom. You have e.g. to pass on judgments, care for the needs of your subjects, manage the economic development and diplomatic relations with your neighbors, and your decisions have various consequences, including your death, which forces you to start anew. The gameplay is quite unusual, as it's based on drawing a random card, each containing a petition regarding one of the kingdom's aspects. By sliding the card to the left or right, you either say yes or no to the petition. The game features simple yet very fitting visuals.
