## What is Reigns?

Reigns: Her Majesty is the revolutionary follow-up to the smash swipe ‘em up hit Reigns. A cultural renaissance has bestowed the world with a new era of knowledge and enlightenment but greed and jealousy still conspire against the benevolent queen. Outwit and outlast those that would seek to depose you and your husband by swiping left or right, making just (or unjust) decisions on all manner of royal matters. Maintain the balance between the kingdom’s most powerful factions, use mystical items from your inventory, and navigate the increasingly complex politics and personal relationships of your dynasty. 

New Kingdom, New Drama: Your royal decrees and unpredictable requests of the people will shape both your time on the throne and the future of your dynasty. Carefully navigate the foolish politics and emotional pleas of the kingdom’s eccentric subjects to find balance between the most powerful factions of the land.

Mystical Inventory: Find and upgrade five special items in a new inventory system. Use your powerful items on character cards and unlock special paths in the ever more complex narrative of your kingdom.

Royal Challenges: Reach specific goals set before each new monarch’s reign to unlock new sets of cards and new directions to take the story of your dynasty.

Nerial and Friends: Reigns: Her Majesty is a collaboration between François Alliot (design/programming), Arnaud de Bock (art), Jim Guthrie (music), and Leigh Alexander (narrative director).

### 3/5 — lags a lot

*2026-02-07, version 1.07*

very laggy

### 3/5 — 微妙。。

*2025-12-13*

ストーリー性や、自分なりの統治の仕方を求めてプレイしてはいけません。
このゲームには正解の選択肢があり、どちらを選択するかは、ただの勢力バランス調整です。
エンディングも、おそらくハッピーエンドは一択っぽい？
選択肢はあるようで無く、正解の選択を見つけて選ぶだけです。
自由意志はありません。
海外的でソーシャル的なゲームですね。

### 5/5 — Fun and challenging

*2025-11-27, version 1.07*

I am so bad at this but it’s so much fun!

### 5/5 — Can't Get Enough Of This Game

*2025-11-18, version 1.07*

been playing this for 2 years already and i can't get enough of it. hoping there will be an update 🙏🏻 also i'm trying to unlock all achievements i already did last time but i had a new phone so it's a challenge. i love u devs for giving me a good game! 💗

### 5/5 — Short addictive runs

*2025-10-25, version 1.07*

The game is set up for the players to go on short runs. The end of the run can be a good break point if you need to step away. The game is also surprisingly deep. It’s well worth the amount of money that you can find in your couch cushions for hours of fun.

### 5/5 — Цікаво

*2025-08-28, version 1.07*

Цікаво

### 4/5 — A fun twist on the original

*2025-07-22, version 1.07*

Part way through the story, excited to see how it continues and resolves. I can’t decide if I like the love story elements of the plot or if they feel superficial - I think it will depend on how it all plays out. The new art, characters, and mechanics of the game are well worth the play either way, in my opinion.

### 4/5 — Could use exciting updates.

*2025-01-27, version 1.07*

This game is pretty nice but it gets repetitive after a while. The same goal, the same objectives. Add new names for the queens, new cards and new prompts. Maybe more slot spaces for items. This game is great but updates would improve its quality

### 2/5 — TERF

*2024-10-08, version 1.07*

Please remove this:

Nice answer! Your results indicate that your Feminist Goddess Soul is HARRY POTTER.

### 5/5 — Difficult Fun!

*2024-09-24, version 1.07*

I love the level of difficulty in this game; is not so hard that I can’t understand it, it’s just difficult enough to keep me consistently engaged. So fun.
