Meikyu kingdom (迷宮キングダム? lit. Labyrinth Kingdom) is a Japanese fantasy role-playing game. Player characters, called Landmaker, are members of a tiny kingdom's court: (king, knight, vizier, oracle, ninja and servant). The magical Dungeon Hazard turned the whole world (mountain, river, ground, etc.) into dungeons. Landmakers explore and conquer dungeons for their kingdom and its people. The English title, Make you kingdom!!, is broken English (Make your kingdom would be correct) but has a double-meaning because it is pronounced similarly to the Japanese title Meikyu Kingdom. It's setting is cynical, and and pop culture references are common. For example, the monster known as the vorpal bunny is based on Wizardry's famous monster, but the illustration is of a bunny girl.
