Kingdom Loop: where Hero Loop meets tactical turn-based strategy
Kingdom Loop is a strategic roguelike with 3D visuals and an isometric camera. It draws inspiration from the cult hit Loop Hero and classic turn-based strategies like jRPGs and Heroes of Might and Magic III.
In Kingdom Loop, players guide a hero on a quest for the Grail in a medieval fantasy world where humans and the undead are at war. Each faction has its own traits, and all 8 heroes have unique abilities that change how the game plays.
Build your kingdom in an endless loop
Kingdom Loop’s gameplay mixes kingdom building, resource management, army development, and combat.
Players guide a hero around an endless loop that circles the Grail Temple. The land has over 200 tiles, each with unique effects that players place using cards. After each loop, enemies get stronger, so players must adapt or risk defeat. Losing can teach valuable lessons for the next attempt.
Kingdom Loop’s turn-based combat relies on dynamic mechanics, where players make important choices about unit selection, positioning, and targets. The game also offers deep systems for managing resources, recruiting different units, and building structures.
Kingdom Loop stands out for its high strategic depth. Strong gameplay variety, combined with significant randomness, allows extensive experimentation with card decks, factions, and synergy creation. As a result, the game offers not only high replayability but also a wide range of viable tactical approaches.
