Tietoa pelistä

Of Crowns & Chains is a solo-developed grand-strategy sandbox where every nation, army, and populace is dynamically simulated on a seamless spherical Earth. Lead a nation of your choice in January 1910 and influence the course of your nation as time marches onwards.

IMPORTANT NOTE FROM THE DEVELOPER

Since the game is in early Alpha, you may encounter bugs, optimization issues, and limited content (navy system is incomplete; lacks save/load system or deeper economy system, etc).

This is an Early Access title, if you purchase this game, you will be getting access to the game in its current state. The game may or may not continue updating.

If you're unsure, please wait until the game transitions from Early Access to Full Release since the base game will be considered finished by then.

CURRENT FEATURES

• Sphere World & Accurate Landmass – No flat-map distortion. Landmasses are generated from real-world geospatial data; highly accurate coastlines and islands.

  

• Resolution Modes – Procedurally generated tiles covers only Europe (including Ottoman Empire, excluding Russia east of the Urals). You can select a tile resolution mode upon starting a New Game (no restart required). Historical states and provinces are not implemented; only procedural tiles.

  • The Normal tile density mode has the default tile resolution:

    

  • The Quad resolution mode features a 4x increase in tile resolution, offering better visuals and more accurate borders (also 4x GPU VRAM usage):

    

• Nation Selection – Choose any nation currently available, from the British Empire to the Ottoman Empire or the microstates of San Marino and Liechtenstein.

  

• National Treasury & Debt System – Manage your nation's treasury by balancing hourly income from taxes and territory against the upkeep costs of your divisions.

  

• Unit System – Each unit represents a division (≈20,000 soldiers), with many divisions fitting inside a single tile.

  

• Combat System – Battles can last for days under certain conditions. There are three hidden phases of combat—Skirmish, Assault, and Breach (battle reports not implemented). Divisions get exhausted during combat and newly captured tiles must be consolidated.

  

• Dynamic Population & Manpower – Populations grow, age, and decline over time. Casualties directly impact age distribution, while manpower pools adjust as soldiers retire or new recruits become eligible. Demographic change is simulated realistically in backend code (infant mortality, fertility rates, gender).

  

• Wars, Ceasefires & Limited Alliances – Occupy tiles and declare wars. Cascading calls-to-arms can pull suzerains, vassals and allies into conflict; tiles can be occupied and liberated. Alliances cannot be negotiated (only historical alliances are active on game start).

Kehittäjät ovat kuvailleet sisältöä seuraavasti:

Gameplay depicts a globe representation of the Earth populated by nations potentially disputing territory. Army units are shown as 2D icons that capture enemy tiles and engage in combat with enemy units. Combat is represented by 2D icons frozen together with animated shapes as battle intensity indicators. No blood, gore, realistic violence, or personal harm is shown (only icons disappearing and color-coded tiles changing ownership/occupation). Realistic war effects on demographics (e.g. casualties distributed across military-aged pops) are presented as statistics (population pyramid, numbers) that impact demographic change.
