Buy The King Got Too Much Gold PC key

The King Got Too Much Gold is a game about managing an ever-growing flood of coins. As the King, you use a magnet to collect gold from a meadow and sell it at the castle. The fountain never stops producing coins: they pile up, rot, clog the fountain and weigh you down, eventually slowing the music. You cannot die or fail, and there is no timer.

Collect and upgrade

Each level-up gives you a choice of 3 upgrade cards, such as a bigger bag, faster boots, a new hire or a face-down mystery card. You can also spend points in a 28-node skill web. Upgrades near the center are cheaper, while nodes at the edges offer stranger effects, such as selling coins by stepping on them, catching coins in midair or drafting 4 cards instead of 3. Some keystone nodes change how the game works rather than simply adding a percentage bonus. Paid rerolls let you redraw a bad card hand.

Build your court

You can hire 9 kinds of helpers, each with its own routine. Robot helpers carry gold, goblins smash crates, trolls grab coins and throw them across the map, a plumber keeps the fountain running, a goose lays coins and the royal cat throws thieves out of the kingdom. You can also use a troll to deal with the thief.

Events and the finale

Random events disrupt the meadow every few minutes. They include gold rushes, earthquakes, jackpots, a coin plague, a gold meteor and raider attacks; there are 10 events in total.

At level 100, the Glutton King rises. You pour your entire fortune into him until he bursts, then continue in endless mode. A complete run goes from an empty meadow to this level 100 finale. If coins overwhelm the field, the screen shakes, the King slows down, the fountain clogs and the music turns wobbly; you can clear the mess and carry on. The game constantly saves your run, so you can quit and resume later.

Presentation

The game uses pixel art drawn entirely in code and has a chiptune soundtrack. It also supports controllers.
