If you’ve just stepped into the world of Super Fantasy Kingdom, then you’re about to discover one of the most satisfying blends of roguelite strategy, town-building, and survival management out there. It’s a game about rebuilding your fallen realm day by day, defending it from endless waves of monsters, and slowly expanding your influence until your kingdom thrives again.
This Super Fantasy Kingdom Beginner Guide is here to walk you through the fundamentals — how the world works, what to prioritize, and how to stay alive long enough to build something that lasts.
Super Fantasy Kingdom Beginner Guide
At its core, Super Fantasy Kingdom is a roguelite city builder with tower-defense elements. Each day, you’ll manage workers, build infrastructure, gather resources, and prepare for nightly monster assaults.
Every action you take — from assigning jobs to positioning defenses — determines whether your settlement will survive until dawn.
You’ll explore the surrounding lands by building roads, discovering hidden bonuses, recruiting heroes, and finding special resources that permanently boost your runs.
The loop goes something like this:
Build > Gather > Defend > Recover > Expand.
And as you grow stronger, you’ll unlock new kingdoms, heroes, and playstyles — starting with the Human Kingdom, and eventually the Undead Kingdom once you’ve proven yourself.
2. User Interface
When you first start, the UI can feel like a lot, but once you understand where things are, it all clicks. Let’s go through it quickly.
Hero: Your current starting hero. If this character dies, your run ends immediately.
Kingdom Stats: Permanent progression tied to your account — not lost between runs.
Kingdom Level: Higher levels unlock new heroes and items.
Shards: Gained by defeating bosses and completing objectives. Used for crafting and purifying monuments.
Banish: Allows you to restart the current day if things go wrong — a second chance system.
Taxes & Faith: Collect daily income or faith. Taxes are used for purchases, while Faith is used to fulfill divine requests and upgrade your hero.
Idle Workers & Carriers: Shows how many villagers are available to assign to new tasks.
Resources: Your building materials — wood, stone, gold, etc.
Hero Resources: Items and materials used for your heroes specifically.
Meals: Consumed by heroes at night to gain experience.
Happiness: Increases unit damage and gives new recruits bonus XP.
Beer: Temporary stat boost for units.
Glory: Earned by killing monsters. Used to expand roads and unlock new building plots.
World Settings: Shows the time of day and what’s coming next.
World Quests: Side objectives found while exploring your roads.
Building Plots: Unlocked with Glory. Needed for expansion.
You’ll get used to checking this information constantly — knowing when to switch from building to defending makes all the difference.
3. How Each Day Works
Each in-game day follows the same rhythm, and understanding this flow will make your runs smoother:
Morning
Your workers start gathering and refining resources. You can reassign jobs anytime using the middle mouse scroll.
Midday
Monsters begin to spawn and march toward your castle. Your heroes will automatically engage them when they come into range.
Sunset
Workers head home. The remaining monsters become faster and more aggressive as night falls.
Nightfall to Moonrise
Defend until every monster is dead. Once the wave ends, your heroes go to the tavern to eat — food determines how much experience they gain.
At the end of each day, heroes eat, level up, and prepare for the next cycle.
4. Building Your Kingdom
This part of the game is where strategy truly shines. Every building you place matters — not just what you build, but where.
Key Building Tips
Always build close to resource nodes. A quarry near stone, a lumber mill near trees — every step saved means faster production.
Prioritize Houses early. More houses mean more workers, but they get pricier each time.
Sawmills are vital. They refine wood into planks, which are needed for almost everything else.
Mines (stone or gold) are essential for long-term growth and advanced defenses.
Buildings are divided into three categories:
Basic: Gather raw materials (woodcutters, miners).
Production: Refine materials (sawmills, smelters).
Special: Provide boosts or advanced mechanics (taverns, towers, special kingdom upgrades).
Plan your layout carefully — walking time matters more than you think.
5. The Undead Kingdom
Once you’ve either defeated the second boss or earned three stars with the Human Kingdom, you’ll unlock the Undead Kingdom, a completely different playstyle.
The Undead don’t rely on traditional workers. Instead, they raise the dead to do their bidding:
Skeletons – Temporary workers for single-day tasks.
Zombies – Slower but longer-lasting laborers.
You’ll manage dark resources like Bones, Ooze, and Blood instead of wood or grain.
Buildings also change — expect structures like the Mausoleum to summon skeletons, or the Soul Hunter to harvest spiritual essence.
It’s grim, slower-paced, and more strategic — but it also introduces new heroes, enemies, and buffs tied to necromancy.
6. Heroes & Units
Your heroes are the heart of your defense. Lose your main hero, and your run ends instantly.
Here’s what to keep an eye on:
Type: Each hero has a kingdom, class, and movement style. Some can use towers for ranged attacks.
Stats: Health, power, armor, crit chance, resistances — all affect survival.
Active Attack: A direct ability used in battle.
Passive Attack: Usually buffs allies or applies effects.
Item Slots: Each hero can equip up to three items crafted in the armory.
Upgrades: Spend resources to increase their base stats and improve skills.
Try pairing heroes whose passives complement each other — like pairing a buffer with a heavy hitter — and always make sure they’re fed at the end of each night.
Super Fantasy Kingdom is one of those games that rewards patience and foresight. It’s easy to get caught up in the chaos of daily battles, but remember — your long-term growth depends on smart planning and consistent efficiency.
Don’t rush your upgrades. Learn the rhythms of your people. And when you finally survive long enough to unlock the Undead Kingdom, take a moment to appreciate how far you’ve come.
Every run teaches you something — even the ones that end in disaster. That’s what makes this game so satisfying.
