Crown & Conquest

From the Devs

A quiet room. A growing board. One move can change everything.

Take your seat in Crown & Conquest, a tactical deck-building board game where Reversi meets chess and chain reactions. Choose your cards, claim territory, and turn a carefully planned placement into a cascade that reshapes the match.

Settle into a warmly lit reading room, surrounded by wooden furniture, books, and a board that grows as you play. The atmosphere is relaxed. The next move can be anything but.

Start with the familiar Reversi sandwich: place a Disk to trap and flip opposing pieces. Then bring Knights, Rooks, and Bishops into play. When flipped, these pieces fire their own patterns, triggering other pieces and setting off chains across the board. Read the connections, find the opening, and turn your opponent’s position against them.

See the chain before you commit. Hover over a placement to preview its cascade and weigh the result. A powerful move might win you territory—or leave the perfect response for your opponent. Control the board to deal damage when scoring arrives.

Build your deck and manage your hand with chess pieces and special cards such as Shield, Swap, Convert, and Bomb. Decide when to play, when to refill, and which cards to keep. Establish your King as a permanent, unflippable anchor, and plan around your Queen’s charging automatic strike.

Follow the campaign from the Outer Courts to the Throne Room, facing rivals with distinct abilities and bosses whose rules change as the battle unfolds.
