This allows you to cut down trees at will, digging tunnels or digging holes. Fun is mainly on building castles and then their defense against invaders. However, only the player is in charge and therefore must rely on his orders obedient settlers. Thanks to them, can explore new areas, collect resources and build structures.

All towers must be designed by hand, deciding on the location of each brick. This creates a three-dimensional architectural plan, which is then our subordinates transform into reality. Of course, this is done it is necessary to collect enough materials. For this purpose, we use the settlers in the role of miners.

Mechanics governing the construction work is very complex. We subordinates are able to climb obstacles just not high and the speed of their movement affects the weight carried by them. Therefore, the key to success is to provide a suitable settlers to come to concrete structural elements, so that cared without undue delay. We realize this goal include by placing the stone steps and bridges. After some time on the board and enter enemy forces begin siege of our fortress.
