Crownforge: Legacy of the First Flame

Crownforge is a fantasy city-builder and alliance strategy game. Play the free online beta now in your browser. No download is required.

What you will do

• Rebuild an abandoned settlement into a kingdom. Every building has 30 levels across six visual eras, and each new era is rebuilt on screen, piece by piece.
• Recruit six heroes. Their bonds grow through battles and story scenes, and at the top a bond works as a reaction in battle: one hero takes the blows meant for a friend, another saves a dying ally once per fight.
• Hatch one of three dragons. It fights from its own support slot next to your five heroes.
• Defend your walls in the weekly raid: twenty waves against your walls and towers.
• Join an alliance of up to 30 players. Help each other with timers, share gifts, fund the Chronicle and swear a weekly oath.
• Explore the Valley of Rebirth: scouts push back the fog and uncover rivers, ruins and hidden bridges.

How we design it

• Gentle PvP. No permanent troop loss and no burned castles. Wars happen in set time windows.
• No "spend X" events. Every scored activity has a perfect threshold, and perfect pays clearly more than good.
• Players shape the world. Our Players' Council votes on the next saga and the next hero, and players name the first river and bridge of the map.
