Crown & Conquest

Chess pieces are chain-reaction bombs on a growing Reversi board. Place, sandwich, and detonate cascades to seize territory. Build a deck, anchor an unflippable King, charge your Queen, and outwit 8 AI rivals and 4 bosses across an 18-match campaign.

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. Learn through short explanations and recorded gameplay examples, then put those lessons into practice. For a different challenge, share the same computer with a friend in local pass-and-play.

Cascades with consequences — Trigger chain reactions through pieces with distinct attack patterns.

A growing battlefield — Adapt your position as new spaces open around the board.

Preview your move — Inspect predicted flips and chain reactions before placing a card.

Build your strategy — Customize your deck and use 10 card types, including royal pieces and special cards.

Learn by watching — Short tutorials and gameplay demonstrations introduce the same rules used in normal matches.

Local two-player play — Challenge a friend on the same computer.

Make the board your own — Choose from different visual themes for the board and pieces.

A seat at the table. A kingdom to claim.
