A completely new interface will soon be available on Mac, along with features from the mobile version!

During the development of Stronghold Kingdoms for iOS and Android we were able to make a range of improvements to the game’s systems, functionality and interface. Now it’s time to bring these improvements to Mac, offering players the same experience as their friends and foes on mobile.

In the past maintaining and updating the Mac client has been problematic, as supporting three different platforms can cause production bottlenecks for a small team. As a result we have decided to reconfigure the Mac client to use Unity just like the mobile version. By updating our Mac version of Kingdoms to Unity, Mac users will be guaranteed to receive game updates simultaneously with mobile and PC players. While historically there has been a slight delay on new updates for Mac, now new features will be available instantly! The newer Unity version should also provide improved stability and is designed to future-proof Kingdoms on Mac so it can be supported for as long as there are Lords and Ladies vying for power!

This upgrade also means Mac users will be able to play using the newer controls and user interface found on iOS and Android. This is a completely new way to play Kingdoms and even includes new features added to the mobile version since launch. We hope you enjoy the streamlined look and feel of our Kingdoms on Mac and look forward to the update appearing very soon.
