ABOUT CROWN GAMBIT

Crown Gambit is a narrative tactical game in which you guide three paladins down an ominous path, through a capital plagued by chaos and political unrest.

Pledge allegiance to one of the pretenders to the throne and help them ascend to power. Follow your own principles but be careful, as your choices often come at a price!

Pick a side among plotters and use ancestral relics to defeat your foes, from power-hungry knights to cunning nobles and rebel commoners.

What will you sacrifice to save the kingdom? Which heir to the throne will you champion? The realm’s destiny lies in your hands.

CARVE YOUR OWN PATH THROUGH THE CHAOS

The kingdom of Meodred's tenuous balance of power is being shaken to its core by a terrible political crisis, while mystical forces appear to be pulling strings from the darkness. Each pretender to the throne is rallying their troops to seize the crown, as the commoners forment a revolt and the tide rises still... At the heart of this turmoil, you play as three novice relic-wielding paladins of the crown forced to make difficult decisions to ensure the kingdom doesn't descend into chaos.

Refine your paladins' personalities through dreadful choices along the story and stay true to your own principles. Pick your allies wisely and navigate through rivalries to foil conspiracies. But trust no one: in times of chaos, duplicity reigns supreme.

FEEL THE IMPACT IN EPIC BOARD-SHATTERING CARD COMBATS

Control a trio of paladins in close-quarter tactical combat: Aliza, the blood-bending swashbuckler, Hael, the mace-swinging cleric, and Rollo, the anchor-waving tanker. Experience the might of your blows through impactful attack animations as you smash through enemies with your sacred relic weapons. Stay on your guard, as other powerful paladins follow their own allegiances - and they won't go down without a fight.

Prepare yourself during your travels and build the deck of each paladin carefully to overcome any obstacle in your way. Become a well-oiled united team fighting their adversaries and making each blow count - with style.

POWER IS A DOUBLE-EDGED SWORD

Channel dark and ancient power through your holy relics and turn the tides of battle by calling upon Ancestral Grace. You will certainly slash through your foes quicker but beware, as the price for this godly strenght may well be your soul...
