• Developer Studio Nostre is preparing to release a city-building strategy game in the spirit of Impressions Games — Kingdom of France;

• Players will meet real historical figures and experience many historical events — the plague, the Crusades, and sieges (the developers haven't overlooked the military side of the city-building strategy: build walls, gates, and towers, and take part in battles);

• You'll build cities across France. Players will be invited to start by building an abbey in the town of Cluny in 994. The city-building campaign will end with Napoleon's death;

• The campaign will span seven whole centuries and include 47 missions;

• A special “City by City” mode will also be available: you'll be able to build French cities in real historical locations — each city you build will trade with another, and a map of France will be available;

• A sandbox mode will also be available — build cities on any land or plot;

• As usual, provide settlers with water, basic food and clothing, access to temples, and wood to fuel ovens or fires. Ale, books, wine, silk, porcelain, chocolate, tea, and opera are also on the list of French people's (later) needs;

• A total of 35 (!) levels of household development — from simple tents to luxurious imperial palaces;

• 148 buildings or construction objects and 90 goods, with basic production chains;

• 13 patron saints are ready to bless production and homes at any difficulty level;

• Russian-language localization has been announced.
