Crown & Crypt

The dead won't stay buried. Lucky you brought knights.

Crown & Crypt is turn-based tactics on a field of seven tiles by seven. Nothing is hidden: every blow shows its cost before you strike, who is hurt, who is knocked back, who drowns. You always know the price of your move. The trick is finding the right one.

POSITION IS THE WEAPON Shove the dead into water, drag them into fire, bring walls down on their heads. A Trebuchet's boulder fills a river and makes a crossing. A Catapult's stone slams the dead into each other. The field you finish on is not the one you began.

SEVEN KNIGHTS Knight, Hookman, Crossbow, Longbow, Catapult, Trebuchet and Chaplain. Each has one blow and one way to turn a fight.

SEVEN KINDS OF DEAD Ghouls, Bone Archers, Bone Kings, Plague Slingers, Grave Priests, Barrow Witches and Mantlets. They read your reply before they strike, and they never tire.

THE ROAD Seven short lessons teach the knights and the dead. Then 25 fields in three marches, each harder than the last. Every field has three stars: win it, keep every knight standing, and win it quickly. Stuck? Each march has two hints, and a hint shows a winning turn.

25 ACHIEVEMENTS In Game Center, four of them secret, each with its own painted medallion.
