Away Kingdom is a mobile strategy game that rewards you for putting your phone down. YOUR KINGDOM GROWS WHILE YOU'RE AWAY Lock your screen and your kingdom keeps working.

BUILD A LIVING CITY Place farms, lumber mills, barracks, and towers on a beautiful isometric map. Upgrade your castle through four ages (Ancient, Medieval, Renaissance, and Industrial). Castle levels bring new buildings, heroes and spells, and every new age opens more land. WAGE CLAN WARS Form or join a clan, donate to grow it, and battle rival clans in weekly wars. Attack enemy castles, earn stars, and climb the leaderboards. Recruit heroes, craft spells, and research a full tech tree to sharpen your army. A GAME THAT RESPECTS YOUR TIME No dark patterns.
