Reigns: Her Majesty is a sequel or companion game to the original Reigns, which I have not played.

R:HM is, however, a fun little game that I have enjoyed playing in spare minutes here and there. It is a simple adventure of choices; you are the Queen and you are met by a person (in the form of a card and some text). You then either swipe left or right to make a decision based on what you have been told/asked.

So, it might be:

“Do you want to have an affair with the hot barbarian princess?” You can swipe left for no or right for yes.

“The king is wounded!” Swipe left to call for help, or right to let him die.

Each decision you make alters between one and four of your score meters. These are Church, Population, Army and Money. If any of these hit 0, you are killed via an interesting means. However, if any of them max out, you also die! So you need to find a balance. This can be tricky if a decision might alter all four, or you have two running low and need to make a call.

There are also special quests, such as ‘birth an heir’, ‘cause an eclipse’, ‘fix your clock’ and so on. And when you die (and you will die. A lot) the new queen comes in and the story continues. There’s some repetition after a while, but the persistence of the world makes it quite interesting, and you can go on different paths and stuff. If you get any achievement done then that Queen will get a title too, like ‘Desdemona The Pure’.

I think it cost 2 quid, and is kinda fun.

Alphabear is indeed fun.

But limiting without paying though. But it’s fun enough I am considering it.

Does it still not work offline? That was a major part of why I stopped playing it.

If it is indeed £1.29 as Russ says then I'd offer this: just pay the goddmann money. Are we really still swithering over paying less than two quid for a game that's already proved itself to be fun? That's pretty depressing folks.

It has a separate offline mode that it dumps you into if you don't have a connection (in which you get to play but don't make progress in terms of bear collection). When you're connected again it offers to take you back into online mode.

Unlimited Honey is £3-odd.

Think the £1.29 figure came from Reigns which was posted above.

Nope - its showing as a fiver for me.
