Nearly everything the peasants do requires them to consume a certain amount of food. A seemingly generous number of crystals are allotted at the start of the game, but the stash depletes far faster than it's built up - though buying more crystals via an in-app purchase is always an option, of course.Ĭompleting tasks isn't simply a matter of waiting around, either. Tasks can be sped up with blue crystals, which are earned by completing certain quests. It can take hours for crops to grow, or for some ruins to be explored. Typical of a city-building game, some tasks in The Tribez and Castlez take ages. This includes harvesting food, tending to crops, assembling trade-related buildings, and exploring caves. Houses are assembled for peasants that, in turn, take care of nearly everything that's to be done around the kingdom. The problem with The Tribez and Castlez is its mechanics, which are as common as mead spills on the floor of a tavern. The shadows of dragons even skate over the buildings and crops from time to time. There are neat graphical touches everywhere. The Tribez and Castlez is as bright and cute as a city-builder can hope to get. Within moments a prince named Eric enlists their help to rebuild his kingdom, which has been laid flat by Gobuls, Trollums, and Wickerwolves. When a time-travel experiment flings the Professor and Aurora into a magical kingdom, they resolve to do what they can to learn about their new surroundings.
It's a solid city-builder, but the long wait times and repetitive tasks keep it cemented squarely in reality. Unfortunately, despite its colorful graphics and light sense of humor, the game doesn't inspire much whimsy. The Tribez and Castlez by Game Insight offers the chance to build a kingdom and take part in heroic quests. We can imagine ourselves slaying dragons and meeting elves in the same dream sequence that puts us in close company with voluptuous maidens and heroes with big swords. Interestingly, those fantasies don't fade as we age probably because they're so versatile. Many of us have personal fantasies about ruling a kingdom.
