Crowns and Pawns Update 1.0.2 is live: Puzzle Rebalancing, Resolutions, etc. 🛠️



Happy update day, adventurers!

You know, good things sometimes take a little more time... Yeah I know, we announced this update back in May. But with the current overall situation on our planet, some things simply can't be planned so well in advance. Anyway, we are really sorry to make you wait for such a long time!

And since you've been waiting long enough already, without additional blah blah, let's get straight to the additional content/changes/fixes that update 1.0.2 makes to Crowns and Pawns: Kingdom of Deceit:

  • Puzzle rebalancing: We did some puzzle rebalancing to reduce frustration. Yes, we know some puzzles are not the most loved ones by some players, so we tried to rebalance a couple of them (some others are still as they were – but we hear your feedback and we have a lot of notes for further future updates!)
  • Phone messages: Click to get new message while texting in the phone – yay, no more waiting if you read fast or are not that interested in messaging
  • Phone notifications: We added notifications to the phone when a new contact is added or a new text message arrives. This helps to not miss important stuff

    (See the red and blue dots? Let me introduce you: The new notifications!)

  • Resolutions/Window Mode: We added the ability to change the resolutions and window mode. For those that might notice some lags, please try to reduce the resolution
  • Razer Chroma integration: If you own Razer Chroma devices, their RGB lighting will adapt according to the game scenes. Fancy!

We want you to have as much fun with our game as possible. Therefore, thank you once again for all the feedback we continue to receive from you. It's really valuable to us, and we read and analyze everything we get. Promise! ❤️

Have an adventurous day!

The Tunes of Adventure: Crowns and Pawns Soundtrack is available now! 🎼



Hello adventurers!

We have some awesome news for all you music lovers today: the official soundtrack for Crowns and Pawns is available on Steam! And you can even grab it as a bundle together with the game and enjoy a little discount as well. We are so excited to share with you the beautiful music composed by the award-winning composer Daniel Pharos. ❤️

Making the music for Crowns and Pawns was an amazing experience! As you know, the game features real life locations, history and legends of Lithuania. But did you know that the music is also inspired by Lithuanian folk music? We took well known folk melodies and made them part of the music of Crowns and Pawns.



What is more, we actually used some unique instruments. We had to track down a now scarcely used instrument Birbynė - it's this woodwind instrument that creates an intriguing sound that's hard to describe. Just see if you can notice any of that while listening to the soundtrack!

We hope you enjoy the music while playing, cooking or wherever you want to listen to some adventure tunes.

Until next time!
