9 Kings is a strategy game where players build a kingdom using combinations of buildings, units, and spells to outlast rival kings in single-player and asynchronous multiplayer modes.

9 Kings is a strategy game centred on growing a kingdom from a small village into a large citadel. Players recruit units, construct buildings, and cast spells, combining these elements in different ways to strengthen their position against rival kings. The game features a roster of unit types, including knights, warlocks, wizards, bombers, imps, and other creatures, along with resources such as gold for hiring mercenaries and magic for raising the dead or summoning nature-based effects.

Each playable king starts with a unique deck of buildings, troops, and spells. Players can go to war with rival kings to loot cards from their decks, or make peace with kings whose units do not suit their strategy. This system allows for combinations of buffs and modifiers drawn from different kings’ decks as the game progresses.

The game includes an asynchronous multiplayer mode in which players compete against eight rival kings to see whose kingdom survives longest, with rankings, daily challenges, and cosmetic rewards. It also offers a Quest Mode with a series of challenges across different regions, each with kings to defeat and crowns to collect, and an Endless Mode in which players choose a king and face continuous waves of enemy attacks of increasing difficulty.
