交易 | 这款简单却“出人意料地复杂”的策略游戏首次在 Steam 上打折，仅售 2 美元（原价 20 美元）

Anyone who enjoys city-building strategy but doesn't want lots of menus and micromanagement should feel right at home with Kingdom Two Crowns. Released in 2018, the game combines city-building strategy, tower defense and exploration, wrapping its pleasantly streamlined gameplay in charming pixel art. The Steam Autumn Sale now brings the first-ever 90% discount (according to SteamDB), cutting the regular price from $20 to $2.

In Kingdom Two Crowns, players ride through a medieval fantasy world on horseback, collect coins, recruit new residents and gradually turn a small camp into a fortified kingdom. During the day, the focus is primarily on building. New walls and towers protect the settlement, while farms generate income. At the same time, exploring the surrounding area is worthwhile, as new mounts, technologies and other useful discoveries await in forests and ruins. Once the sun goes down, however, things get dangerous. That's when the creatures known as the Greed appear, attempting to break through the defenses and steal the monarch's crown.

然而，与人们对策略游戏的预期不同，这款游戏并未采用俯视视角，而是选择了横向卷轴视角——这带来了截然不同的游戏节奏。王国只会向左和向右扩张，而玩家自己则必须在两侧之间来回奔波。这让距离和时机一下子变得至关重要：探索得太远，或是在错误的时间身处王国的错误一侧，都可能让你在夜间袭击中迅速陷入险境。与此同时，横向卷轴的设计也让这款策略游戏非常适合使用手柄游玩——并且已通过 Steam Deck 验证。

在相当简单的核心概念背后，正如 GameStar 的德文评测所描述的那样，这是一款“出人意料地复杂的策略游戏”，扩张、防御和资源管理始终需要彼此权衡。评测者还称赞了游戏迷人的像素艺术画面和出色的合作模式：两名玩家可以分别负责王国的不同区域，带来更多战术选择——既可以在线游玩，也可以通过本地分屏游玩。不过，由于游戏有时缺乏充分说明、部分对象偶尔会有难以预测的行为，而且玩法随着时间推移会变得有些重复，最终评分“仅”为 81 分（满分 100 分）。近 40,000 条 Steam 评测中，90% 为好评。
