About Crown of Greed

Heavy is the head that wears the crown especially when nobody listens to it.

Forget about direct orders you know from other games of the genre. Master an unusual, indirect management system in which you must skillfully bend your subjects and heroes to your will. Claim the throne of Rodovia, build cities, recruit troops, expand your kingdom and exploit the power of a coin.

RULE THROUGH INDIRECT INFLUENCE

In this unique take on the city builder genre, you cannot issue direct orders. Your subjects have their own wills, fears, and desires. Want a monster den cleared? Set a bounty. Need a dangerous ruin explored? Post a reward. Master the art of motivation to get things done without ever clicking a single soldier.

BUILD AND EXPAND RODOVIA

Transform a humble settlement into a sprawling medieval empire. Strategically place buildings, manage resources, and establish a thriving economy. Every structure you raise attracts new types of heroes and citizens. Each of them brings their own skills and their own price tags.

EXPLORE LANDS STEEPED IN FOLKLORE

Travel through the gloomy, mysterious realms of Rodovia inspired by European medieval folk culture. Discover a variety of biomes, from dense forests and swamps to the treacherous icelands and deathlands. Venture into forgotten ruins, caves, and graveyards to face horrifying inhabitants like Basilisks, Drowners, and even the legendary Baba Yaga herself. Immerse yourself in the dark atmosphere with a haunting soundtrack composed by talented Polish artists. Remember that the greater the risk, the more gold flows back to your coffers.

WIELD ARCANE POWER 

When gold isn’t enough to sway the tides of fate, turn to the Arcane. As your strongholds grow, so does your knowledge of the mystic arts, unlocking new spells and powerful abilities to support your heroes or rain destruction upon your enemies.
 

HEROES WITH A MIND OF THEIR OWN

Recruit legendary champions who act on their own initiative, but choose wisely. Each hero comes with a unique set of randomized traits, both positive and negative. You might hire a Devout Warrior who excels against the undead but suffers from fragile health and low stamina. You might find a skilled Rogue who hides a dark secret or struggles with a costly vice. Your job is to ensure that their chaotic nature aligns with your goals by dangling the right amount of gold. Will they risk their lives for a copper, or will you need to empty the vault to save the realm?

THE HERITAGE SYSTEM

Your reign doesn’t end with a single mission. Between quests, use the Heritage Points earned during your campaign to unlock permanent upgrades for your kingdom. The more deadly the quest, the more points you receive. Invest in your realm's future to ensure that each subsequent ruler starts with a stronger foundation.

KEY FEATURES:

  • Unique Indirect Management: A deep system where gold and influence are your primary tools.
  • Dark Folklore and Monsters: Face Basilisks, Drowners, and Baba Yaga in a world inspired by European myths.
  • Polish Artistry: High quality soundtrack and atmosphere created by Polish artists.
  • Arcane Progression: Upgrade your strongholds to unlock devastating spells and tactical abilities.
  • Unpredictable Heroes: Manage champions with randomized traits, from holy warriors with low stamina to rogues with costly vices.
  • Heritage System: Earn points from risky missions to buy permanent kingdom upgrades.
  • Living World: Watch your subjects live, spend, and fight according to their own greed.

This game had great potential, but the dev doesn't understand anything about balance. Having mega-strong boss units come trounce your base every 7 minutes or a 10k hitpoint dragon summon 30 enemies with him to trounce your base in less than 10 minutes into a mission is ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥. You have no real time to prepare, and once they leave, you get almost no time to recover. There are even side missions that take specific characters of a certain level (which happens to be the slowest hero so he doesn't catch the bad guys before others do) and you cannot direct one specifically to train, meaning you can spend HOURS waiting on this while the rest of the mission is finished. Seriously, I WANT to like this game, but it becomes a time waster half-way through. Its sad, really. The mechanics have real potential, if only a dev with the knowledge to bring about that potential had a hold of it.

this game is totally awesome. It is an RTS but is different from all the others....instead of the usual drag and click to swarm your units to attack some basic area like your typical RTS game does, this game has you use contracts (i.e. bounties) to let your troops decide whether or not to join in that contract depending on how much you offer as the bounty money. It is loads of fun and the units look cool and there is no woke bs in it. This game has a lot of replayability and I have 30 hours on it so far and it is just plain fun to play. You can put a bounty on a particular mob or on a building or send a team you gathered from an Inn/tavern against something or use a defense contracts to hire units to guard an area or a particular mob or a building or you can hire people to explore around in order to find bad guys and their lairs/hideouts/monster caves. I have never encountered a game like this one. I love it.

7 out of 10 Kind of fun could of used some polish. Pros: - Full Campaign - Cheesy Voice Acting - Outer map Menu had strategic upgrades based on points earned - A few interesting maps and campaigns - A lot of factions spells upgrades ect Cons: - I feel like the game works backwards in some ways you start with all the different allied camps except in a few missions - Barbarians just run past demons ect... kind of annoying and unrealistic how nothing wants to kill each other they all just wanna kill you - Could of used some fun allied maps where your not in complete control - Characters were a little buggy especially when you try to revive maybe make it so you can only revive one time and after that remove them from list

As a huge Majesty fan from the release of the first original one and waiting for 25 some years for anything credibly similar, Crown of Greed is awesome! I want more! Recently we got this and Lassaria, both, as old Majesty fans. I feel Lassaria feels a bit more like the Majesty games, but Crown of Greed, while having its own feel that seems a bit separate, comes across as being a bit different in its mechanics, yet with a different and even smoother polished feel to it than the others. Some people may gripe about the swarms and missions too hard, especially getting started. Well, they are suppose to be. It was the same with the Majesty games. The games are not for chumps. If you are expecting a simple Sim, these are not it. Nor are they RTS and can't be successfully played like one. They are a unique combo of the two in which it takes settling into playing like a bit of both, but unlike either, to be successful. Even with the original Majesty, you were super excited about what you saw coming into it. Then you start trying to play it and end up wanting to just throw it away in frustration the first several attempts to even try just getting started. But hang in there, c…
