Digital Chocolate Launches Kings & Warlords

Medieval strategy game advances company’s mid-core competitive focus

SAN MATEO, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Digital Chocolate, a leader in social games across growing platforms, today announced the launch of Kings & Warlords™. Kings & Warlords is a fresh take on MMO battle games that challenges players to make strategic decisions that have huge impact on gameplay. Developing alliances and training armies to compete against neighboring bands of swordsmen, archers and knights are the key to success.

“Kings & Warlords is for audiences that love competition and strategy games and are looking for something new within the genre”

“Kings & Warlords is for audiences that love competition and strategy games and are looking for something new within the genre,” said Marc Metis, Chief Executive Officer of Digital Chocolate. “The advanced battle mechanics, deeper strategic choices, and enhanced gameplay bring a fresh perspective that players will enjoy.”

The game is free to play at http://apps.facebook.com/kingsandwarlords, via the Facebook App Center and on the Spil Network. Gamers can customize their kingdom and participate in real-time chat to align strategy amongst their alliance. Deep content exists is different forms: ‘King’ missions that encompass building a strong kingdom, and ‘Warlord’ missions designed to guide the player through battling and conquering neighboring lands. Surprises exist along the way presenting an army the opportunity to acquire spies, boosts and valuable heroes to complement its strength and chances for success in the game.

The title is in stark contrast to the casual “time waster” games often seen in social gaming. Kings & Warlords fits into the midcore genre of games that appeal to distinct sets of audiences that really enjoy and engage with games as a hobby. A mobile version of the title is forthcoming.

Further enhancement and features to Kings & Warlords are planned in the subsequent weeks. For more information about Digital Chocolate’s games, go to www.digitalchocolate.com.
