Blocklords (Platforms: PC and later planned for Mobile) is a new strategy MMO that focuses on farming, combat, power, and conquest. With your choices, you influence not only your own game but the entire kingdom. The cinematic portrays what awaits you.
What does the cinematic show? The first of 3 parts of the cinematic shows initial impressions from the kingdom that was attacked. Right from minute 00:09, a statue of the king is shown and in the background, you can see the city sinking into chaos.
The king, who is in the castle with his advisor, seems to be devising combat strategies at the chessboard. But then a flaming projectile flies directly through the window and hits the king (minute 00:13 to 00:46). The ruler has no choice but to confront the invading enemies himself.
What kind of game is this? In Blocklords, you will be able to farm, fight, and conquer. You can shape your own legacy, but your choices affect not just your own game but also have effects on other players and the entire kingdom.
To get a clearer picture of the gameplay, the producers describe the game as follows:
Imagine the civilization progress of Age of Empires meets the combat of Total War, mixed with the strategy of Crusader Kings. Then you add in the farming mechanics of Stardew Valley and you get a picture of the gameplay of Blocklords.
