The upcoming hybrid title Dungeons & Kingdoms, which blends medieval kingdom-building and management simulation with dungeon-crawler RPG elements, has released its first public demo during the Steam City Builder & Colony Sim Fest. The project is a collaborative effort between Camlann Games and indie developer Uncle Grouch Gaming, and it has already garnered significant attention since its announcement last summer.
For those who missed the initial reveal, Dungeons & Kingdoms follows the story of a group of refugees trying to start anew in a foreign world. As their leader, you’re responsible for building settlements, managing resources, and meeting your people’s needs. However, true progress is made by delving into dangerous dungeons, where battling monsters and bosses unlocks crucial resources and technological advancements.
What sets Dungeons & Kingdoms apart from similar titles is its deep customization. Construction isn’t limited to fixed models—terrain can be reshaped as needed, whether digging trenches or raising fortified positions. Population management introduces unique mechanics, while the ARPG segment features combat that directly impacts your kingdom’s development.
The demo will offer a glimpse into the game’s core mechanics, including limited kingdom-building, population management, and one ARPG dungeon-crawling adventure. A Steam Early Access release is planned for Q3 2025, with the exact date depending on feedback from the demo during the Steam festival.
