Rise of Kingdoms: Lost Crusade is a war game that takes player strategy very seriously. In the game, players can choose from 13 civilisations and need to build and upgrade their kingdoms, produce resources, develop technology and create troops to make themselves more powerful in battle. Players can launch one-on-one attacks and resource battles against the enemy, or they can gather an alliance to launch a massive attack against the enemy and destroy them in one fell swoop.

The game is divided into two phases. 1 phase: the server civil war, as the name suggests, is an alliance of players, on the game map we can have different coloured areas, which represent the area occupied by an alliance. The alliance that occupies the "Lost Temple" in the centre of the map will unify the entire server, that is, unify an entire kingdom. 2: This is the war between countries, which will be fought in different seasons according to different matching rules, and then in The country that finally captures the territory and buildings will be crowned "champion".

The basic gameplay of the game.

PvP: Players can directly attack other players' cities and troops. Cities below level 8 cannot attack or be attacked. Players with the "Peace Shield" on are also not allowed to be attacked.

PvE: Directly attacking barbarians of different levels in the game to gain resources and experience.
