    This game is not for you if you are expecting a decent RTS style game. As some of the main critics have said, no consequences makes this a sandbox game to waste time in. It's missing the one main ingredient for an average rts.... warfare; without it, its selling out to casual sim city-ites who don't want the chance of their population hating them. The music, collision, terrain, frame rate, are all a waste. Your money can be better spent renting a couple movies. What was nice, was they incorporated avatars pretty much at the same time the update was released it seems.… Expand

    Amazing game! It's not just for kids. I'm almost 23 yrs old and I enjoy it - both playing and watching my husband, helping to determine the best strategy and placement of buildings. Absolutely worth more than its $10 price tag.

    Amazing little game. I didn't think much of it when I read about it or even after I started it up. But after playing for a few hours, and then a few more hours, and then omg it's 3am. This game is astonishingly addicitve, with nice chevos, too. Great arcade game that has that magical "just one more turn" quality that I miss from my PC gaming days. Highly recommended for a relaxing bit of fun.… Expand

    I enjoy this game immensely. It's one of the best building simulation experiences that emphasizes the fun of that activity alone. There's no monsters to defeat or natural disasters to overcome. You interact with your people and build.

    A fun little game. It's not a whole lot more than the building/gathering portion of an RTS, but there is a good amount of stuff to manage. It is a very laid-back and relaxing game. Chances are you might not play it more than a week or two, but it's only $10, and there's enough here to get your money's worth.

    This is game is just fun and relaxing. There's no combat or consequences, yet amazingly it manages to hold your attention for hours at a time. It does what it does very well.

    A Kingdom for Keflings is a charming addiction and a great addition to the XBLA library. With the resource management of an RTS and the kingdom building enjoyment of Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles: My Life as a King, A Kingdom For Keflings is a very enjoyable game and a recommended download for any Xbox Live user.

    Awesome game. Very casual and fun simulation type god game. Worth the 800 points and I suggest those who like xbla give this a try. The feeling of progression is there and is very satisfying.

    Short-lived settlement building with soothing gameplay and music. [Nov 2008, p.84]

    The do-what-you-like pacing, charming presentation, and endlessly addictive nature of tackling increasingly complex structures in an effort to ultimately erect an impressive castle, mirrors an addiction we haven't experienced since the last time we preened in our pretty pinata gardens. [Dec 2008, p.88]

    Such innocence with a secret mean streak pleases us immensely, and even if you play fair there must be many hours of gameplay trying to see your little guys into a fortified castle. [Issue#37, p.117]
