About the Almanach
One player, one game, and a habit of writing down what worked before the next event resets everything.
Who writes this
My name is Mario Stuthahn. I work in game development in Germany by day, on the production and creative side, and I play Kingshot the way most people on this site do: on a phone, in an alliance, arguing in chat about whether the Bear Hunt formation is right. This site is where the arguments end up once they are settled.
There is no team behind it. I use AI tools to draft text and to keep the data pages in sync, for example the item tables that build themselves from one source file, and every page is then read, checked against the game and corrected by me before it goes live. The judgement calls, which hero to build and what to save for Kingdom of Power, are mine, and when they turn out wrong I change the page and say so.
How a fact gets onto a page
Everything published here is about content that is live in the game. I read the official patch notes and the official Discord announcements, I watch the screen recordings that creators publish of the events, and I cross-check numbers between at least two of those before they appear in a table. Where a number cannot be corroborated, the page says so or leaves it out. A pet page lists what the game shows; it does not list what a forum post claims.
Each guide carries the date it was last verified. When the game changes a mechanic, the guide is updated or marked, and the gift codes page is checked against the redeem centre rather than copied from other sites. Datamined content stays off the site until the publisher has announced it.
What you will find, and what you will not
The site covers the decisions that come up every week: which arena lineup fits your generation, what to hoard before Kingdom of Power, which pet to level and which event setups score. The item and pet databases exist because the same questions kept coming back in alliance chat and there was no single place with the answer.
You will not find a tier list that changes every week to chase clicks, or coverage of games I have a professional connection to. Everything stays in English, and there is no login, no comment section and no newsletter.
How the site is paid for
Hosting is cheap and the writing is unpaid. The site carries a small number of display ads, at most two on a page and never in the way of the guide itself, to cover the costs. Nothing on the site is sponsored by Century Games or by any pack reseller, and no guide recommends a purchase because someone paid for the recommendation.
