The player inherits a domain in ruins, which they will have to restore, and develop into a prosperous estate. As the base of operations, the domain is where the player draws up their strategy for the battles ahead: recruiting and training their squad, equipping the soldiers with the weapons they need and managing their resources. The player must then set out to defend their lands against enemy factions, and against the Order, an evil cult threatening the whole kingdom. As the player racks up victories in battle, they can rebuild and upgrade the 7 main buildings in their domain. 

Crown Wars: The Black Prince is a turn-based tactics and strategy game set in a dystopian mediaeval period with added touches of dark fantasy. The game immerses players into the 100-Years War, in which several royal families are pitted against each other in bloody conflicts, with the crown of the most powerful kingdom in the West at stake. Yet besides these dynastic struggles, players must also confront the Order, an occult, malevolent organisation which is sowing chaos across the kingdom, and whose forces wield sufficient power to change the course of history.
