Crown Craft

CROWN CRAFT is a royal goldsmith workshop.

You do not dress a character or match jewels on a board. You take a named commission, rebuild the crown on a workbench, open the mechanism that hides its sockets, and set each stone by kind. Finished work enters a historical collection, era by era.

ASSEMBLE Every crown has a blueprint order: Base, Band, Spikes, Ornament. Parts come from a limited workshop inventory. Place them in sequence. Stability rises or collapses with each fit. A frame that is not secured cannot advance.

UNLOCK The assembled crown is a concealed device. Five mechanism types appear across the collection:

• Rotating Rings — turn each gilded mark to face upward • Sliding Seal — open seals in order, left to right • Gear Balance — meshed gears turn in opposite directions • Light Rail — cycle each beam to the lit socket • Counterweight — move masses until both pans balance

Alignment opens the gem face. Nothing else does.

SET Twelve stones wait on the Gem Tray: ruby, sapphire, emerald, amethyst, diamond, topaz, garnet, peridot, aquamarine, citrine, tourmaline, and onyx. Each socket accepts only its specified kind. Mistake count becomes a quality rating when the commission is complete.

COLLECT ACROSS FIVE ERAS Thirty named crowns, six in each royal age:

• Pharaoh — Nile Dynasties (scarab, uraeus, sun disc) • Rome — Imperial Senate (laurel, civic oak, eagle standard) • Byzantine — Golden Mosaics (enamel, porphyry, Hagia Sophia) • Tudor — Renaissance Court (Tudor rose, Hampton, pearls) • Imperial — Modern Empires (state crown, Habsburg, tsar diamonds)

Finish every commission in an era to open the next. The Collection holds the finished piece, its historical line, and the three-stage record: Assembly, Mechanism, Gem Inlay.

Offline. No accounts. Progress stays on the device.
