About the Game



Legends of the past come back to life in this charming European mystery point-and-click adventure.

Crowns and Pawns, a modern-day detective point&click adventure, inspired by classics such as Broken Sword, The Curse of Monkey Island, Still Life, Syberia and others. The game highlights the less explored history of Europe to the world of adventurers. Experience the legendary stories of the Grand Duchy of Lithuania, bring to light the conspiracy of the villainous branch of the KGB, solve puzzles and follow hints to reveal the secrets of the King who was never crowned.



The story follows a girl from Chicago, Milda, who unexpectedly receives an inheritance from her grandfather – a house in Lithuania. She sets off to Europe, but upon arrival she is threatened by an unknown man, demanding that she gives up her inheritance. Determined and intrigued by the mystery, she explores the run-down house, discovering old documents and clues dating back to the 15th century. Before long, Milda gets dragged into a dangerous search for a long-lost mysterious relic with a curse...



  • A blend of history and myths set in a modern world, featuring real life locations all around Europe.
  • Crowns and Pawns is led by the art director of the highly acclaimed fan-adventure Broken Sword 2.5.
  • Classic point-and-click puzzles that involve finding items hidden in beautiful environments, creatively combining the contents of your inventory, interesting dialogue choices, and more!

  • A world that reacts to your decisions.

  • Fully voiced dialogue.
  • Music written by the award winning composer Daniel Pharos (A New Beginning, Memoria, Blackguards).
  • A control scheme perfectly adapted for the best possible experience with both a mouse and a gamepad.

I’ve got it 70% off and it still feels like too much money. The story is short, slow-paced, the lack of sprint is killing my soul. I didn’t really care for any of the characters, only Dana showed some kind of personality. But instead we are pushed to romance some random dude, can’t we simply romance Dana, or, actually, nobody? Why the mother is bitch? Does the father even exists? Can I take the librarian for a date? So many questions, no satisfaction.
