About the game, how to play & FAQ

How to play Idle Kingdom

Collect Tax (tap): click the main button to gather gold by hand — useful early and while saving for your first buildings, with occasional windfalls.
Construct buildings: buy auto-producers (Farmer, Lumber Camp, Blacksmith, Mill, Market, Barracks, Cathedral, Wizard Tower, Castle, Knights Order…) that earn gold every second. Every tenth purchase hits a milestone multiplier.
Decree upgrades: unlock boosts like Iron Plows, Guild Charter, Trade Routes and Crusade to multiply one building or your whole realm's output.
Advance tiers: reach each gold floor to rise from Hamlet to Town, Castle, Kingdom and Empire — each grants a permanent global multiplier.
Idle / offline: close the tab and your realm keeps earning — collect offline gold when you return.

Tips

Always push toward the next tier — advancing multiplies everything, so it usually beats hoarding for one expensive building like the Castle. Use the ×10 / ×100 / Max buy buttons to spend gold efficiently, and grab every global-output upgrade (Guild Charter, Trade Routes, Crusade) the moment it unlocks.
