About This Game

Crush, stab, slice, rend, cut, break, decapitate, maim your enemies. Or have it done to you.

Crowned in Steel is a brutal skill-based action-adventure built around deliberate combat for players who actually want to fight. If you die, it's on you.

Combat is built on chaining directional strikes. Alternate between four directions to keep your chain fast, turn parries and dodges into counterattacks, and string the right sequences into combos that deal massive damage. Mashing the same direction gets you killed.

Enemies fight like you do. Each one can block, dodge, feint, and punish your missed attacks.

• Combat that rewards strength and reflexes. You earn every kill.

• Full dismemberment. Limbs fall where you cut them.

• Handcrafted linear and semi-open levels to carry the story.

• A power fantasy story. Start in a dungeon, reclaim the crown, banish the invaders.

You are not the chosen hero and there is no prophecy, but you will make them fear you.
