Mini Monarch

is a fast-paced strategy game built on a foundation of nodes that feed into each other to create a dynamic, living society from a graph.

This is a project that has taken 53 hours as of June 16th with many missing features. However, I hope you can still enjoy the prototype that I currently have, either as a standalone  build or using this browser version.

TIP: If the browser game is laggy, download the standalone version below

Grow and nourish your society 

Using a balance of taxes, edicts, and job proportions, fine-tune your perfect civilization and lead it through natural disasters and even wars!

When push comes to shove, nature can SHOVE! React to a diverse set of crises that will set you back  far, unless you came prepared! Don't be too scared to spend a pretty penny to save your people!

Research System

Use research to unlock advanced technologies that improve the lives of your citizens and your bottom line! With 4 paths to choose from, you can direct your society in whichever way forward you think is best!

Wage War!

Using the power of your great army, and with the full might of industry and steel, forge your way to the future with the help of loot from your enemies! But be wary, for it might be your kingdom they're coming for next.

Be prepared to defend yourself and your people, or else fall to the wayside as a footnote in history!

(WAR IS A WORK IN PROGRESS AND IS NOT IMPLEMENTED IN THE CURRENT BUILD)

Conclusion

Thank you so much for checking out Mini Monarch! This is a game I've been working on throughout May and June 2025, and I'm super happy with where it's currently at.

This is the first project where I used Affinity Designer 2 to draw all the sprites. I created over 90+ sprites in total for this game so far, so it's been a major learning experience in drawing 2D art for me.

I have a lot more planned for this, so please stick around if you'd like to see more!
