With the release date fast approaching, developer Tag of Joy and publisher Thunderful have shown off some gameplay for Crowns And Pawns: Kingdom Of Deceit in their latest trailer. This Broken Sword-inspired mystery game will bring a puzzle-filled point-and-click experience and a tale with fascinating, underexplored aspects of Europe’s real history.
The tale kicks off with Milda receiving a letter from her estranged late grandfather. That letter says Milda is now the safe keeper of the family secret, drawing Milda to travel to her grandfather’s home in Lithuania to try and uncover exactly what this secret might be. Before long, Milda finds herself embarking on an exciting and dangerous investigation across Europe. She becomes embroiled in a hunt for a lost relic, digs into historical figures like revered Lithuanian leader Vytautas the Great, and uncovers the murky past of the KGB’s clandestine activities during Soviet occupation.
Crowns And Pawns: Kingdom Of Deceit is set to release on May 6th for PC via Steam. Will you be diving into this hand-painted, mysterious tale this Summer?
