Legends of the past come back to life in a charming European mystery adventure.

Milda, a girl from Chicago, unexpectedly receives the last will of her deceased grandfather – it appears that she is an heir and the last guardian of a mysterious family secret. Following a handful of obscure hints, Milda is thrown into an adventurous, puzzle packed search for the truth.

Crowns and Pawns, inspired by point-and-click classics such as Broken Sword, Still Life, Syberia and others, brings the less explored history of Europe to the world of adventurers. Experience the legendary stories of the Grand Duchy of Lithuania, beware of the villainous branch of the KGB, solve puzzles and follow hints to reveal the secrets of the king who was never crowned.

But be wary – he could trust no one. Can you?

A blend of history and myths set in a modern world.
Directed by the lead artist of a highly acclaimed fan adventure Broken Sword 2.5.
A refreshing look at the classic point-and-click adventure genre.
Hand painted HD art with a touch of modern graphics features.
A world that reacts to your decisions.
Customizable character looks.
Featuring real life locations all around Europe.
Fully voiced dialogues.
A control scheme designed for both a mouse and a gamepad in mind.
