### 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。

### 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.

### 4/5 — 총게임 어떻게 하는지 모르겠어요

*2024-06-03*

번역이 약간 아쉬워요. 그래도 해볼만한 게임

### 3/5 — Definitely a Sequel

*2024-05-28, version 1.07*

Tries to do too much and adds an element of cringe to the dialogue. Attempts to be intimate with the player and create this big story, but missed the mark on what made Reigns special. Reigns: Her Majesty is a fluffed slapstick with choices that never seem to feel neutral. From the beginning it feels as though you are forced to pick a side and any choice against what has already been given as the main story line feels immoral.

### 3/5 — Yikes..

*2023-12-31, version 1.07*

When I first got Reigns (the original game) I loved playing it and thought it was so much simple fun. I heard of Reigns: Her Majesty and thought it would be just as good as the first, unfortunately not. All the choices seem like they randomly change your stats, they’re so drastic and random it just seems completely pointless reading the card and trying to think about the positive and negative consequences because the stats will just be crazy. Pretty terrible

### 5/5 — !!!!!

*2023-05-24*

Muito bom

### 4/5 — Мова

*2022-10-21, version 1.07*

Додайте українську мову, будь ласка

### 5/5 — Enjoyable

*2022-09-19, version 1.07*

Good game, interesting

### 5/5 — …

Боже, храни Королеву…

### 5/5 — Wonderful sequel to a wonderful game.

*2022-06-11, version 1.07*

After finishing the first reigns, I was sad there wasn’t another now there is!

### 5/5 — One of my favorite games

*2022-06-09, version 1.07*

I love reigns! I always have, and I liked to spend time playing on the original, so I was ecstatic when I learned there was a Queen version! Needless to say, this game met expectation. It’s pretty accurate when it comes to politics on the side of the queen, having to settle agreements and earn favor instead of bargaining and starting wars, like in the 1st game. As soon as I learned of the all mother, I immediately became obsessed! Great job!

### 5/5 — Very Entertaining

*2022-06-03, version 1.07*

It keeps the boredom at bay!!

### 5/5 — perfect

*2022-06-02*

i love it!👸🏼

### 5/5 — Amazing

*2022-04-24, version 1.07*

Addicting game

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Much worse than the original

*2024-03-20, version 1.07*

As someone who has played the original game many times over, this sequel is a complete dumpster fire. The consequences of your actions are mostly unpredictable and are frequently uniformly beneficial or harmful, whereas in the original, decisions are almost always tradeoffs between the different factions. Additionally, the writing is often amateurish in both the prompts and the queen’s responses, which resemble those of a stereotyped teenage girl rather than royalty. When I looked it up, it turns out that Reigns: Her Majesty was actually written by Leigh Alexander, a notorious radical feminist with no previous experience working on video games. Beyond the quality of the writing, this also shows up in the bias of the decisions. Whereas the church was just one of four factions in the original game, with both positive and negative aspects, here they are uniformly portrayed in a negative light and oppose decisions supported by all the other factions, including decisions they should by all reason support.

### 1/5 — Не понравилась

*2022-11-28, version 1.07*

Королевы мрут как мухи, кружочки вверху одного цвета и не понятно куда пойдет шкала вверх или вниз, какие то придурковатые боты с придурковатыми запросами. Оценка игры явно завышена. Зря потратил деньги.

### 1/5 — Too much bias

*2022-08-13, version 1.07*

The first Reigns is better

### 1/5 — Pass

*2021-01-10, version 1.07*

Not my cup of tea. Choices just have random results. Not nearly as clever as the first.

### 1/5 — Un sacco di bug

*2020-11-16, version 1.07*

Come nel capitolo del re, le scritte sono tagliate e non si visualizzano bene. Inoltre in questo capito è pieno di bug grafici durante il dialogo con l’omnimadre.  Scrivo da un iPhone XS Max.

### 1/5 — Fun for the first five minutes

*2020-02-10, version 1.07*

This game was a good instalment after the original Reigns game but I found that the Queen dies/gets executed way too quickly. Could do with less sensitive meters so I can actually get into the game without dying after 6 years... never had this problem with the original

### 1/5 — Terrible

*2020-01-02, version 1.07*

The reviews on here convinced me to buy. No matter the outcome you die. Then on to the next queen and the next. Save your money. Terrible game. 1 star out of 5 is generous.

### 1/5 — 원래 첫 판에서 향수 받는거 아닌가요

*2019-11-15, version 1.07*

처음부터 다시 하는중인데 향수 이벤트 없이 진행되네요

### 1/5 — Fun game... if you like giving away your data

*2019-09-09, version 1.07*

This game is great fun. It’s compelling, with a good story line and fun game play. I paid for it and played all the way through to the end... only to discover that the game uses the questions to build a psychometric profile of the user, which is then sold to advertisers. 
It is difficult to find out whether this claim is real or a joke, but early versions of the game had lots of complaints of the game using unusual amounts of upload data, so I’m inclined to assume it’s real. And I was disgusted to have paid to give away my data.

### 1/5 — Cool Story and Ideas, bad game :(

*2019-06-25, version 1.07*

I love the feminine touch to this game! The story behind its pretty cool, but for BOTH of these games, I personally feel as if it’s not worth the price.. even with the bundle. $1 maybe... The lives of the queens are too easy to kill, which is the point, but is executed in such a poor way that the story becomes .. bad. Therefore making it an average game all over.

Could be great, but it’s not had enough effort put into designing the gameplay.. wish I could get a refund

### 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

### 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.

### 5/5 — Masterpiece

*2024-07-13, version 1.07*

This game is awesome. But I don’t see any button that allow to restart this game. Is that possible?

### 5/5 — Awesome

*2023-12-19, version 1.07*

I had played the original reigns, using the Apple Arcade version. I decided to get this one after completing an ending many, many times. This, so far, pushes all the right buttons. Very different, yet similar. New characters, better romance, interesting plot, and even a few callbacks. The mechanical owl makes me want to give this game six stars

### 5/5 — Good game calming game and pretty game

*2023-11-17, version 1.07*

100 stars

### 5/5 — Best game everrrrr

*2023-10-15, version 1.07*

Always so fun and never disappointed

### 5/5 — cool

*2023-08-19, version 1.07*

it’s cool
