Kingdoms (UK) (1985) - Amstrad CPC - Strategy, Turn-Based
(1985).jpg)
You are in control of the simple economy of a small empire. Each year, every member of your community requires 6 sacks of corn to provide enough food to survive and is capable of planting 3 sacks of corn. Exactly 10 sacks of corn are required to plant corn on one acre of land. Using less than 60% of the available land causes some land to become barren. Similarly using more than 60% of the land increases the available arable land. At the start of each year you must decide how many sacks of corn you will allocate to planting on the land and to feed to the population of your empire. The amount of corn that is produced from the fields is dependent on the quantity of corn planted and the quality of the harvest. Every member of the population who cannot receive 6 sacks of corn will die through starvation while every 6 sacks of corn in excess will enable one new person to he born. However, the population cannot increase by more than 3 fold. If more than 30% of the empires population dies then beware of an assassination attempt!!
