Without following any guides or tutorials I was at a loss for a long time as to what my main purpose is and I honestly find this to be pretty boring. You're suppose to build up an army to destroy the portals that enemies spawn from while building a kingdom to defend and build a boat to travel to other lands to repeat the process. You spend massive amounts of time doing nothing while waiting for NPC's to earn money to give to you. You can travel far east and west to find about 2-3 chests that drop coins in the beginning to jump start your economy but it isn't much and doesn't stretch far.
You recruit NPC's by dropping a coin on them in various camps found around the map. It seems that if you destroy the trees surrounding a camp before recruiting the NPC's stationed there they will go away along with the camp and it never respawns. There's also a vendor that will come to your village every other day and pay you some coins. If you destroy his camp he never returns and you lose what is pretty much the hugest part of your income. You can not attack, you must hire archers to defend you and your kingdom from enemies that spawn from a portal on either ends of the map until you're able to destroy it by amassing a small army of knights. If NPC's are attacked by the enemies they drop their tools. If they're hit a second time they drop the coin they were paid to join you and revert back to being neutral to you and must be paid again before working for you once more. If you are attacked you drop coins. If you have no coins you lose your crown and it's game over, start again. You don't get to customize your character that you play as instead you can change your banner design to a handful of animals and different colors and patterns.
You can build walls to stop the enemies from getting in. Archers and catapults will move to the furthest east and west walls to defend. Any archers that are stationed on lookout posts won't move and will never move so they become incredibly useless and I don't recommend ever building them. The lookouts cost 3 coins and are built on top of large boulders. These posts don't make the archers aim any better so ultimately it adds negative value.
It's a very relaxing and quiet experience. It's funny seeing how horrendous the archers aim is when trying to kill various wildlife and enemies. I'm just not that into it.
