Ich fand es wirklich richtig anstrengend. Das tut mir leid, so hart sagen zu müssen. Ich liebe Adventures, aber dieses hier hat mich geärgert.
- mega lineares Spiel - so linear, dass man untersuchte Gegenstände zu einem anderen Zeitpunkt erneut untersuchen muss, aber beim ersten Untersuchen keinen Hinweis darauf bekommt
- absolute Verzweiflung, was denn jetzt noch gemacht werden muss, wenn das Offensichtliche erledigt wurde
- keine Hinweise, Notizbuch, Merken von Dialogen oder Ähnliches
- ätzende Action-Quick-Time-Events - ich habe teilweise überhaupt nicht geblickt, was ich machen muss, es gibt null Erklärung zur Steuerung
- ewig lange immer wieder zu ertragende Animationsszenen bei Dialogen oder Rätseln, oder immer wieder ganz von vorne Anfangen, statt mir dem, was man sich im vorigen Versuch erarbeitet hatte - mit eben ewig lange Animationen jedes einzelne Mal
- extrem wenig Interaktionsfläche, kaum untersuchbare Gegenstände, winzige Schauplätze
was soll ich sagen: es fehlt alles und hat nichts. Nicht mal liebenswerte Charaktere, Story auch nicht so spannend. Die Optik (abseits der Klamotten der Protagonisten) ist aber wenigstens ganz nett.
Ich habe es nicht zu Ende gespielt, beim Vespa-Rennen hatte ich einfach keine Lust mehr.
Spielen soll ja Spaß machen, Stress habe ich genug auf Arbeit.
Wer ist überhaupt auf die besch...ene Idee gekommen, dass jemand, der ein Adventure Game spielt, sich auch nur minimalst über ein Quick-Time Element im Spiel freuen würde? Ist doch ein Widerspruch irgendwie...

LITHUANIA MENTIONED YAYYAYAYYAYYAYA
Fun click and point game and made in Lithuanian : D. Always happy to see games made in my home country. Puzzles are not hard but sometimes had to use walkthrough because they didnt seem logical. The backgrounds and 3D models are very simplistic but thats cute personally for me. The story is funny and simple too. Some moments made me gag lol. The unrealistic part of this game is that elder people know how to speak English lol. And no fried bread with cheese in the game?? Horrible...
8/10 : D
Hope you guys make more games in the future!

Fun game, but ridiculously hard to figure out. Had to use walkthrough help for almost EVERY situation. Kind of a rip off of Broken Sword.

If you play beware of what you pick to be as a profession, as if your not a photographer you don't get a camera, if your not a psychologist you don't get a book, or if your not a programmer you don't get a usb plug. I hate that you have to restart the game from the beginning to be all of them or one just to get what you need to progress in the game. This game really needs to be tweeked before you distribute it. Could and would be a nice game if these didn't happen. I like how the game starts and the nice cities you visit, but overall a bad game to publish without the tweeks being fixed.

Very little to complain about from a game play standpoint if you are use to the point and click style games like this. A hint feature could have been nice as some answers are not obvious.
Now to where I felt the game could improve, it was so close to being a really interesting story. I think the issue was not feeling connected to the lead.
SPOILERS AHEAD: Throughout the game, we see small portions of her family dynamic (her struggling relationship with her mother and her father and grandfathers absence from a young age) so narratively you think it is a slam dunk for her to share how that has shaped her life and lack of identity (given we pick nearly everything about her from dialogue, style, even her job) and how her motivation to get the crown is to gain the family she has lost and hopefully bring her father back in her life. The major draw is we never see that. Her reunion with her grandfather who she thought she was DEAD was summarized by her in text as a lol XD omg so crazy story. They take the seriousness out of the situation which, in my opinion, waters down her character and our motivation. Making her big confrontation scene with the villain of the game so lack luster. It's not an awful story line, but it is so mid compared to what it could have been with some narrative changes. It seems like someone made a killer plot and then the publishers took all the negative stuff out to make it #relatable and consumer friendly. Okay for the price but could have been so much better in my opinion.

It wants to be a modern adventure game but does not quite hit the mark. It looks fine and the story is fine. The puzzles are solid. The world feels a bit too small. Also the story does not make sense in some parts. it is necessary to play through the game at least three times with little variation for all achievements. The background chosen in the beginning only changes one puzzle if I remember correctly. Maybe it is a few more but that is not much.
If the develpers decide to make more such games I am on board for that.

Score: 6/9

This is a pretty middle-of-the-road point & click adventure game. It has some great things (some puzzles, and the method for combining clues to get new insights was nicely done), some very annoying things (not being able to run or skip cutscenes or animations in a modern p&c is practically a crime, and making you through the entire game 3 times (!!) to get every achievement without any way of speeding up the process is just mean), and a lot of meh things (the story is pretty farfetched, the characters are not really three-dimensional, and the soundtrack is mid at best). I decided to recommend it because it has just about enough good stuff in it to tip the scale, but it's definitely close.

[h2]Introduction[/h2]
Crowns and Pawns: Kingdom of Deceit is a point-and-click adventure game that features charming graphics and a manageable number of interactive objects. If you are not a fan of this genre, you may not find much appeal here.

…
If you are still interested, let's delve into the aspects of the game that I found less satisfying.
…

[h2]Game Duration[/h2]
The length of the game is relatively short, taking between six and eight hours to complete. For a point-and-click adventure, a more appropriate duration would be around ten to twelve hours.
[h2]Story and Plot Issues[/h2]
The narrative is problematic—not in terms of writing quality, but in the pacing and structure. Some sections feel rushed and would benefit from additional development, while the introduction feels more like filler than a meaningful start. There are also illogical moments, such as the protagonist traveling without ever having money in the inventory or the grandfather acquiring a moped while being chased on foot, with no explanation of how he managed to do so without being caught.
[h2]Puzzle Design[/h2]
Certain puzzles lack sufficient explanation, making them difficult to solve through logic. Instead, players may have to rely on trial and error or consult a walkthrough. Specifically, the selection of the three places of worship for the keys, the hockey game (which assumes knowledge only hockey fans would have), and the riddle involving eight statues all suffer from poor clarity. For example, the hint "follow the leader" is unhelpful when the leader is only identified by a finger pointing down, which is far from intuitive.
[h2]Other Gameplay Frustrations[/h2]
Some actions, though not entirely illogical, end up wasting the player's time and often lead to consulting a solution. For instance, the requirement to pick up an old jersey at grandfather’s house in order to be recognized as a hockey fan seems arbitrary. Similarly, the presence of a cat in the library, which serves no purpose at that moment, can be misleading.
[h2]Replay Value[/h2]
There is nothing in the game that would motivate me to play it again.
[h2]Recommendation[/h2]
Would I recommend Crowns and Pawns: Kingdom of Deceit? The answer is not straightforward. Steam would benefit from a "meh" rating, as my opinion falls somewhere between yes and no. If you are a dedicated fan of point-and-click adventures, you might enjoy this game, but do not expect it to reach the heights of classics like Monkey Island or the Sierra adventures of the ‘80s or ‘90s. For everyone else, there are better ways to spend your time.

Intriguing premise, and notable for being the first adventure game I've played set in Lithuania. Unfortunately it falls into some classic point-and-click traps: slow, unskippable animations and many tedious steps to accomplish simple tasks. I got bored in an extended sequence of trial and error trying to distract a librarian. Advice to all adventure game developers: streamline the exposition, skip straight to the exciting parts.

Crowns and Pawns: Kingdom of Deceit is a point-and-click adventure that embraces the genre’s traditions while weaving a modern, culturally rich mystery grounded in Lithuanian and Eastern European history. The game begins unassumingly, with Milda, a young professional living a fairly ordinary life in Chicago, receiving news that her grandfather has passed away and left her a house overseas. What seems like an unexpected but manageable inheritance quickly transforms into a sprawling investigation when she discovers that her grandfather’s past was tied to long-buried secrets involving royal lineage, ancient conspiracies, and political tensions that still echo in the present. From that moment forward, the narrative expands into a mix of personal discovery, historical intrigue, and globe-spanning clues—a structure that immediately sets the tone for an adventure that blends contemporary life with centuries-old mysteries.

What helps make Milda a compelling protagonist is the touch of personalization the game gives at the outset. By choosing her profession and appearance, you shape subtle aspects of her problem-solving style and dialogue interactions, making her feel slightly more tailored to your playstyle without turning the experience into a branching RPG. This sense of agency is small but effective, grounding you more fully in her role as she navigates ancient documents, secret messages, and dangerous machinations. Milda is written with a balanced mix of curiosity, humor, and grounded emotion, making her easy to root for as she pieces together truths that her family—and possibly powerful strangers—have tried to obscure.

The gameplay adheres to classic point-and-click design while avoiding the pitfalls that often accompany the genre. You explore vibrant, painterly environments and gather clues, items, and documents that connect the narrative threads. Puzzles vary from traditional inventory combinations to more interpretive tasks involving deciphering symbols, analyzing historical letters, and assembling information on Milda’s phone. This mixture keeps the gameplay feeling fresh, allowing puzzles to serve the story rather than stop it dead. While some puzzles do lean into trial-and-error or more obscure logic, most are grounded in narrative context, making you feel like an active participant in unraveling the plot rather than a bystander solving abstract riddles.

The game’s visuals and atmosphere elevate the entire experience. The backgrounds are richly illustrated, capturing both the old-world charm of European cities and the quiet mystery of their hidden corners. Churches, apartments, museums, and ancient ruins all have a distinct personality, with lighting and color palettes that reinforce the tone of each major chapter. Characters are fully voiced, and while the 3D models don’t always blend seamlessly with the hand-painted environments, the performances help bring warmth and personality to the cast. The soundtrack works quietly in the background, shifting between moody, mysterious tunes and lighter, warmer melodies, giving each scene a sense of emotional grounding without overwhelming the player.

A few rough edges do appear along the way. Certain interactive sequences—such as timed reactions or chase scenes—can disrupt the otherwise smooth pacing and feel disconnected from the cerebral tone of the rest of the game. A handful of puzzles are overly fiddly or unintuitive, and occasional tonal swings—from humorous character banter to heavy historical revelations—don’t always fit together perfectly. Yet these flaws, while noticeable, never overshadow the game’s strengths. They instead highlight that this is a modern adventure that is still very much in conversation with its genre roots, embracing some of the quirks that long-time fans may recognize immediately.

By the time the story reaches its climax, Crowns and Pawns manages to tie together its blend of history, family mystery, and political drama into a satisfying conclusion. The sense of journey—both literal and personal—feels earned, and the cultural setting lends the story a freshness rarely seen in modern adventure games. It is a thoughtful, atmospheric, and lovingly crafted experience that balances intrigue with heart, presenting a mystery that feels both intimate and historically resonant. For fans of narrative-driven adventures, especially those who appreciate grounded mysteries enriched by real culture and history, Crowns and Pawns: Kingdom of Deceit stands out as a compelling and memorable entry in the genre.

Rating: 7/10

a very good point and click adventure game with good puzzles and nice voice acting.
The only thing that is missing is an diary that keeps track of conversations, it's not an deal breaker though but it would have come in handy if you don't play long sessions.
It has a small replay value because of a choice made in the beginning of the game wich has an impact on a puzzle later in the game.

I did enjoy it initially, but the longer it takes the worse it gets. Feels like the dev ran out of money after the middle part and just rushed to the end. Game felt rather small, just a few areas of interest, nothing significant. End location is just a single puzzle, ending is just a cutscene.

As for puzzles, it is a mixed bag. Some of them are cool, require you to think, but others are constructed in a way to confuse you. Unfortunately the game does not get rid of reduntant items (maybe to obfuscate what is useful and what not) and the character does not sprint. Also, location that are no longer relevant are not cut off, so you may end up wandering aimlessly trying to figure out what to do. I had to consult the walkthrough at least a couple of times, because I did not have fun engaging the puzzles and jus wanted to finish the game.

The dev is technically adept, the mechanics and graphics are nice. They will be making a sequel to Vampire Story, where they will get direction from ex - Lucas Arts veterans, so I am hoping they will shine with that game. As for this one, you can just as easily skip it. The story is rather bland.

Un point n' click traditionnel qui s'inspire grandement des classiques du genre (Les Chevaliers de Baphomet & co...) avec une histoire sympathique mélangeant humour, enquête & mystère... avec son lots de puzzles loufoques & de dialogues détonants.
Du déjà vu & des petits clins d’œil seront de la partie dont un puzzle avec une chèvre...d'où le lien avec le fan-game Broken Sword 2.5...

Des graphismes assez cartoon qui auraient pu être plus détaillés...(surtout lors des zooms de décors)
Quelques petites nouveautés comme pouvoir modifier librement les vêtements du perso pour certaines énigmes...
De même, on aura le choix au début du jeu entre 3 professions différentes mais mise à part une seule énigme qui devra être résolu de 3 façons différentes en fonction de la profession, ce n'est pas exploité du tout & tant mieux dans un sens, vu qu'on peut faire une partie des actions de chaque professions en même temps, ça peut mener à confusion...

Il essaye d'être plus moderne dans sa narration tout en étant profondément ancré dans les clichés de ses classiques...
Pas parfait & pas trop long non plus, il aurait pu être plus dense avec des passages & pays bien trop vite expédiés...
Il se termine avec une fin un peu bancale, au goût d'incomplet & d’inachevé...

Kind of disappointing and boring overall. The graphics were better than usual for a point-and-click adventure. A few puzzles didn't seem fair and a few seemed needlessly convoluted. I'm a veteran of the genre and had to consult a walkthrough seven times. I appreciated the dialogue choices, the choice of profession and being able to choose the wardrobe of the heroine, but the last two features were not used enough. It's not a horrible game, but there are better choices.

I’ve got it 70% off and it still feels like too much money. The story is short, slow-paced, the lack of sprint is killing my soul. I didn’t really care for any of the characters, only Dana showed some kind of personality. But instead we are pushed to romance some random dude, can’t we simply romance Dana, or, actually, nobody?
Why the mother is ♥♥♥♥♥? Does the father even exists? Can I take the librarian for a date?

No le daría más de un aprobado justito. La idea de base es interesante, muy a lo Indiana Jones (de hecho, el final es muy La última cruzada), y cuando el juego se deja jugar, resulta muy entretenido. El problema es justo ese: la jugabilidad. Hay demasiados puzles enrevesados que lo único que hacen el alargar artificialmente un juego muy corto. Un par de ejemplos: el de la impresora 3D y el de la persecución en scooter. Al final he tenido que recurrir demasiadas veces a una guía, porque no me apetecía estar perdiendo en tiempo realizando combinaciones o acciones interminables. Una pena, porque el juego prometía.

You can clearly see the influence of genre classics like Broken Sword and Syberia on Crowns and Pawns (and not just because you can feed the goat and wiggle the mammoth in this game). The graphics are cute and playful, the voice acting is fantastic (except for a few lines from one specific individual in the final scene that sound… not dramatic enough - let’s leave it at that), and every character is just bursting with personality.

Dialogues flow nicely, and Milda’s comments are often genuinely funny and perfectly timed. Pair that with multiple options in conversations and some puzzle solutions, and you’ve got a really cool and unique take on the classic point'n'click adventure formula.

Story-wise, it’s very good. I'm not familiar with Lithuanian history, so this version of "chasing a mysterious manuscript across Europe" (that even our boy George Stobbart wouldn’t be ashamed of) brought back fond memories of my favorite adventure games. Still, it didn’t quite hit the same home run as the Templars did - probably because the Holy Grail is a bit more familiar than the story of the lost Lithuanian crown.

Regardless, Crowns and Pawns is a fantastic game, with very logical puzzles, top-tier voice acting, witty humor, and plenty of clever nods to the golden age of adventure games. We need more of this!

Oh, and more scooter scenes!

I would like to give this a neutral review really. I enjoyed the settings and the history, and it works pretty well as a classic point and click adventure, the puzzles were varied enough.
However, I found the characters generally unpleasant and one dimensional (the villain had a point that the heroine was treating priceless history like a get rich quick scheme), the storyline was predictable - I kept waiting for a betrayal from the love interest to shake things up but no. Possibly most annoying, the soundtrack was incredibly irritating. Some of the puzzles were not intuitive at all and by the end I'd lost patience and resorted to a walkthrough, mostly just to get away from the soundtrack loops.
Due to these elements I can't recommend it. But it was all stuff that is personal taste, so your mileage may vary. It has the bones of a great game, and I would consider checking out more by this dev, but not with these characters!

A solid point and click game that harks back to the era of point and click games in the 2-2.5D style. Runaway, Broken Sword, ARK, Journey Down.

However... it's borderline for me, the voice acting was surprisingly good but the storyline was a bit meh. I never really felt like I was invested in any of the characters that much, and it always seemed to be jumping from place to place.

The game started off really well, having the option to pick character traits at the start really adds to the replayability, however there was literally only 1 place where this was really used, or even mattered.
Similarly, the start with the different routes you could take for the trumpet man was really good, but this branching happened exactly once (excluding the character choice). When I encountered this I thought it would be a theme throughout the game, the USP of Crowns and Pawns whereby the path isn't as linear as other point and clicks, but I was disappointed.
Some of the puzzles also made no sense except for just being there, like finding the nut early on then having to use it later 'just because' - it literally added nothing. This could have easily been enhanced by having a 'manual' in the room with different weights of items, and then a set of scales. Leaving the player to work out the best combination, and eventually stumbling across the use of the nut, but no, it was trial and error, and eventually I gave up and looked at a guide.
This happened a few too many times for me, leaving a taste of slightly rushed, and unpolished, with a "what could have been" mindset.

Despite that, as above, it is a sold game, about 6hrs for 1 playthrough, or nearing 8hrs without use of any guides.
I'm glad I played it, but definitely only buy it on sale.

Pretty good point and click adventure game, in the vein of titles like Broken Sword or Runaway. I liked the quality of puzzles, some quite challenging, and just a tiny bit of moon logic which is ok. No need to brute force solutions by trying everything on everything. Good humor and voice acting, likeable characters and decent plot. Exactly what I was looking for. Some things could be improved, like being able to make character run to a certain spot or more puzzles based on chosen career (photographer etc.). I hope the devs will continue to go in that direction, we need more modern games like that.

I liked the game. I found the graphic style and voiceovers wonderful, and the game's humor and plot were quite entertaining.
Unfortunately, by the end, the game left a lingering sense of being cut short. Some questions were left unanswered, and it felt like the foundations for some puzzles were there but never fully developed.

But overall, it was a great experience. At the start of the game, we get to choose one of three professions, each of which lets you solve puzzle(s?) in different ways. I chose to be a photographer, and I had great fun taking pictures of everything and listening to all the comments about it.

The story is great but the main character's friends are some of the most annoying people ever. The most terrifying moments of the game for me was when Dana starts texting. Some of the puzzles are also tedious and depend on trial and error, unless there were clues that I somehow missed. If you like a mix of adventure, mystery, history and conspiracy theories, you will probably like this game despite its faults. There are nods to well known adventure games like Broken Sword and Syberia.

It's a pretty good Point & Click you can beat in under 7 hours. Voice acting is really great so are the graphics and art style. I really liked the small details, like reflections. They could’ve easily skipped that, and most other P&C games don’t bother with those kinds of touches, but they didn't, and it looks great. The story is interesting, not some deep narrative masterpiece level good, but it's fun – and that’s what counts.

Time for the not-so-great stuff.
It has a lot of hard or just straight-up illogical puzzles. You’ll hit moments where you have no idea what you’re supposed to do next, and the game offers zero hints. I might get why they wouldn't want to add a “Show Hint” button in the menu - fair enough, but at least give us some character lines like “Maybe I should try…” or something. After struggling with some puzzles for like 20 minutes, I had to check YouTube. If I had tried to figure everything out on my own, it probably would've taken 30 hours to beat the game lol.

The other minor con is that it’s not super friendly on a gamepad. Like, why do I need to use both the D-Pad and sticks to pick actions for inventory items? Why not just one? They made it weirdly complicated for no reason.

[h1] Внимание! В игре отрабатывается повестка Министерства культуры Латвии со всеми популярными Историческими Установками.[/h1]
Crown and Pawns: Kingdom of Deceit. Занимательное приключение, где Милда Ковас. Получает печальное известие. Она отправляется на свою малую родину. Где водоворот событий смещает ее первоначальные акценты.
Теперь детально по основному минусу. Смысл профессий и предметов к ним утерян. Он определенно сделан для галочки. Для одной головоломки в библиотеке и нескольких фраз на точки интереса в начале и одна ближе к концу игры.
Поэтому одного прохождения достаточно, чтобы увидеть весь контент. Понравилась идея с одеждой. Жаль, что обыгрывается только вначале (без учета предмета гардероба по заданию). Для тех, кто любит собирать достижения, напоминаю 3 полных прохождения. Сдержанно рекомендую. Очень сдержанно.

Off the bat (and the beaten path): If you are looking for a delightful adventure game that will take you places, let you journey through the less traveled roads of Europe, discover interesting facts, cultures and history (albeit with a fictional twist) and solve well-thought and unique puzzles, this game is for you.
It doesn’t have the production value of a Broken Sword in Lithuania, but I can see how it has the heart, curiosity and sense of discovery and exploration of the beloved Revolution series, without being derivative. You won’t have to chase templars – for once!
Keep in mind though: this is the first game of an indie studio, and leniency is required to fully enjoy it, especially in regards to the overall quality of the 3D, animation and UI. If you are playing on Steam Deck, I highly recommend using the mouse-only configuration and avoid direct control at all costs.
This said, the artistic direction the game took, and the detailed reproduction of actual places around Europe is a sight to behold, and the voice acting is absolutely stellar and definitely among the best I have ever experienced in a game so far.
The fact that some puzzles vary depending on the career path chosen for the protagonist might have affected the overall puzzle design/hint system, as well as made the difficulty level unbalanced in some situations, but in my personal experience I had an amazing time and I found the level of challenge perfectly fine tuned.
I have read several reviews lamenting the difficult platforming sections or the illogical nature of puzzles in game, but I haven’t experienced any of it. I am not sure if the career path I chose (she was a programmer) had any part in it, but I found the puzzles always logical, with enough clues to nudge you to the right direction without handholding or being obscure. The platforming section that pushed several players to rage quit the game was pretty doable when I did it. Either the stars aligned when I played, the developers fixed these aspects of the game in gradual updates, or else I can’t explain the rift between extremely positive and extremely negative reviews.
I have to admit the beginning and the end of the game are a bit weaker than the strong middle part, but I am a it’s-the-journey-not-the-destination kind of person, and I was impressed and delighted every step of the way, from Chicago to… well, that’s for you to find out 😉

Very solid, well made adventure game. It has a retro feel to it, but not in the usual way people think of retro P&C adventure games these days, with so many games trying to copy old school Lucas Arts and Sierra games (interestingly usually made by people born after those developers were already long gone). Instead Crowns and Pawns feels very much like a 2000-2010 era sort of game. That was a pretty dark period for adventure games generally, with almost all the P&C games still being made coming out of Europe. Crowns and Pawns reminded me most of the Secret Files games, but it's way better than those games, which were pretty mediocre.

Crowns and Pawns has a solid story, uniformly high quality voice acting, good non-pixel artwork (which has actually become rare these days), and most of the important quality of life elements you'd want in a modern P&C games (manual saves, no typewriter effect in dialogues, skippable dialogue with a mouse click, double click to quick exit a scene). Puzzles are all logical but friggin HARD. This has a higher level of puzzle difficulty than I've played in a while. I don't have as much patience and perseverence as I used to and tend to favor easier puzzles. I ended up resorting a number of times to hints and more direct walkthrough tips, but I'm sure many players will appreciate a rare P&C game these days with challenging puzzles. Solutions were always logical -- no moon logic here -- but, man, some of them are sure lightly clued and require some pretty big logical leaps to get to the right answer.

Only real downside is the somewhat short length (I finished in less than 7 hours), though it's not out of line with the generally shorter lengths of P&C games these days. There were also some annoyances with lengthy animations that couldn't be interrupted when you're trying to interact with a character in the middle of one. Achievements are kind of annoying too, requiring three separate playthroughs to get them all because of a very early decision you have to make that has very little impact on how the game plays out, I think only impacting how one puzzle is solved. I'll want to play this again some time in the future I'm sure, so I wouldn't have minded two mutually exclusive paths, but three seems excessive.

Awful attempt at an adventure game. As the game starts, it starts presenting you with a bunch of bad adventure game mechanics, and no story. It feels like they are trying to draw inspiration for their interaction mechanics from Don't Nod games, which is not at all a good thing. I don't need to be able to look at every single thing, only to get a monologue from a very bland protagonist who hasn't been introduced at all, which don't progress the game, story, or character depth. Then your presented with puzzles that don't really feel like puzzles at all, and are just a series of tedious tasks, while still being heavily in the moon logic realm.

After playing for 30 mins and spent it doing boring teadious tasks and being introduces to a handful of characters that don't seem to have anything interesting going on, dealing with a very clunky UI, and having zero sense of any kind of story being presented, i have up.

I've played lots of adventure games, and this is D tier.

So far this game has been enjoyable with a few negatives that some reviews here have already mentioned. Let's start with the pros:
1. The locations are beautifully done and the graphics are not bad.
2. The dialogue is funny. Made me laugh at least.
3. Characters are cute and lovable!

Cons:
1. The story and plot is kinda all over the place.
2. Some puzzles are OK but most are frustrating. You do need a walkthrough cuz a lot are either trial-and-error or just plain illogical and you're stuck not knowing what the game wants you to do to find the solution.
3. The main character walks really slow.

Overall, I'd give it a 7/10 !

Crowns and Pawns is a decent point and click adventure. It's around 6 hours long, which was enough for me. I liked the art style and the environments, they were very pretty and bright which makes a nice change from the usual point and click games that often feel a bit gloomy.
Some of the puzzles were quite tricky, and don't feel very intuitive. The mechanic of combining notes didn't work very well because it's difficult to know when this should be done, and which notes should be combined. I didn't enjoy this mechanic. There are some good guides out there if you get really stuck.
The story is okay. It's much better than other wacky and nonsensical point and click stories but overall pretty standard stuff.
I think most fans of the genre will enjoy this game, so give it a go.

CaP is a very competent point-and-click adventure game, with overtones of Broken Sword and early Lucasarts adventure games. It has a cast of characters that are well voiced, but not particularly memorable. The narrative is fairly straightforward and nothing we haven't seen before, but still an enjoyable journey. It has puzzles of various difficulty, some of which I needed to look up the answers for, but none that are illogical. While playing I had the feeling that the game was striving to be an Indiana Jones-esque globetrotting adventure, but it doesn't quite reach those heights.

I played on the Steam Deck and while the UI took a little getting used to, it's very playable on a controller as opposed to a mouse and keyboard. However there are some QT events that don't favour a controller, and those did occasionally frustrate. Fortunately there's only a couple of them, and you can use the Deck's touchscreen to act as a mouse click which did help with these sections.

Overall this was an enjoyable game, enough that I'm interested in what the devs will do next. I'd only recommend picking it up if you're a fan of the genre and specifically enjoy the themes of churches and historical puzzle solving.

I dont recommend this game for 2 reasons: I could not finish it even with a guide for a stupid puzzle (the scooter race in Italy, i still wonder how to do that and why the puzzles are simply NOT SKIPPABLE. it is a pain in the ass. The hockey game was not logical at all but I passed it by luck, still dont know how.
2) the story is quite bland and lacks deepness. Yeah story telling is hard and a good scenario is an art.
3) while i have nothing against the 3D, everything is a bit "empty" and few places to visit...yeah I also prefer 2D+ and 2D point and clicks with more deep to it...the list is long.
I wanted to give it a shot cause Latvian team work hard and I love PaC. I am going to test VAMPYR and VAMPYR 2 hoping i won't have the same kind of deception.
I hope this studio corrects the drawbacks of this one (skippable and logical puzzles) and deeper story.
KEEP IT UP.

It's fine that it's short, you gotta test the waters if it will do well on the market after all.

💔 Some combination of the notes is weird and unintuitive, got me stuck more than any puzzle.

A nice, shortish adventure with lively voice acting, charming graphics, and a globetrotting adventure. The "arcade/action" sequence and the timed music puzzle broke the flow of the game, but otherwise a solid experience, taking advantage of its setting and (hi)story, focusing on a corner of the world few adventures dare to tread. Looking forward to visiting Vilnius some day!

I was in the mood for a dramatic point and click adventure that starts as a small, innocuous thing, and gradually escalates to a high stakes dramatic adventure. I looked up point and click on steam, found this, and it perfectly scratched the itch.

I did need to use a walk through four a couple of puzzles that I don't think I was given enough information to solve, but most of it felt organic.

there's also some light character customisation, if you don't like how the protagonist looks. You'll still be playing as the same person, but you can really change her vibe. I got a light punk-goth aesthetic I think worked well.

Développé par des fans du fabuleux Broken Sword, Crowns and pawns nous propose un voyage dans le même esprit énigmatique mais léger, principalement en Lituanie. J'ai beaucoup aimé le style de dessins doux et coloré, accompagné d'une bande-son discrète. Une expérience reposante. L'héroïne attachante ne court pas et est assez rigide. On sent l'hommage. La logique des énigmes coule plutôt de source, j'ai suivi un guide pour les succès dont certains sont manquables mais je pense que le jeu est faisable sans aide extérieure.

Le point faible c'est l'humour. Certes pas une chose universelle, mais on ne retrouve malheureusement pas les petites réflexions constamment amusantes de Broken Sword. On sourit parfois mais c'est jamais le grand fou-rire. Et la fin laisse des questions en suspens, peut-être pour introduire une suite un jour. Enfin dernier défaut pas très malin, le fait de devoir faire le jeu 3 fois pour débloquer le 100%.

Clairement le point fort du jeu ce sont ses dessins. Et quelques très rares passages. Mais c'est vraiment le genre de jeu qu'on achète en bundle ou très soldé et auquel on joue quand on est en manque terrible de Broken Sword like. Après est-ce qu'acheter un morceau de gruyère suffira à vous faire passer l'envie d'une raclette party ? Probablement pas.

It's a decent point and clicker. Nicely drawn art, good voice-overs. Music nothing special but not bad. Story is not very engaging or emotional, but has a few nice spots. Overall story and ending was quite meh. Could have built on the family relations a bit more.

Still, it is not too long a game to get overly boring, and provides a bit of point and click fun if you like that kind of stuff.

Recommend to take a walkthrough next to it, helps get past the more frustrating puzzles that these games always come with. A bit of trial and error, then the walkthrough.. Remember to double-click to reach certain exits faster. Helps with the frustration of slow walking often.

Seems to be on a good sale often, perhaps get it on one of those. If looking for a relatively short, ok, but not great, point and clicker.

Recommendation is a bit in between but there is no such choice..

Pretty classic PnC. You keep your items til use or never again.

There's a couple of leaps of logic, and at least 1 trial and error puzzle I can remember. Overall, pleasant locations, voice acting is great, decent pace.

Overall, for PnC lovers, this should scratch the itch

Fair warning for 100%, you have to play through the game 3x. But you can power through dialogue by essentially skipping it. I think my third run was ~2h

Jeu plutôt moyen avec un scénario qui laisse à désirer !
L'intrigue est très banale et ressemble à tout ce qu'on a déjà vu, sans aucune surprise même à la conclusion.
De nombreuses questions demeurent sans réponse, notamment celle concernant le père de Milda.
L'héroïne est plutôt attachante grâce à son humour et son caractère, mais c'est à peu près tout.

Il y a très peu d'actions ou de rebondissements, les énigmes sont peu captivantes et se résolvent rapidement.
La durée totale du jeu est assez courte (comptez quelques heures, au maximum 6 heures !) et la fin est décevante, laissant un sentiment d'inachevé.

Honnêtement, je ne recommande pas "Crowns and Pawns : Kingdom of Deceit" car il ne m'a vraiment rien apporté d'intéressant, que ce soit en termes de Gameplay (c'est un Style Point&Click mais pas très réussi) ou en ce qui concerne le scénario qui est vraiment décevant, sauf si vous envisagez d'acheter ce jeu pendant les soldes, et encore à un prix très bas !

Pour ma part, c'est une grande déception, je m'attendais à mieux, c'est presque une perte de temps même si les graphismes sont corrects (On aime ou pas, ça dépend des goûts) et que les musiques de fond sont agréables.

J'ai aussi remarqué que certaines énigmes étaient vraiment trop "tirées par les cheveux" et finissaient par devenir incohérentes, presque ridicules !

Pour quelques euros et si vous avez déjà exploré de nombreux jeux similaires (Jeux Point&Click/Aventures), pourquoi pas, mais ne vous attendez pas à quelque chose d'exceptionnel, c'est très basique au final !

Понравилось:
*Персонажи, дизайн, озвучка, диалоги.
*Дизайн всего.
*Фишка с гардеробом, что её несколько раз вплели в игру.
*Телефон, который так же часто использовался, а не для галочки.
Минусы:
*Сами загадки как основа жанра игры. Или слишком простые или нелогичные(перемудрённые), что приходилось лезть в чужое прохождение. Редко когда испытывала радость от победы "какая же я умничка", чаще всего это вымученное "ну и как?".
*Фишка игры - три профессии. Несколько уникальных реплик, не влияющих ни на что и 1(!) квест, который проходится разными способами. Один! Когда я перепроходила ради ачивкок от и до, я надеялась, что игра с такой фишкой должна быть реиграбельной и интересно посмотреть что изменится. Ничего. Кроме одного квеста. Пришлось просто долго и упорно прокликивать все диалоги.
*Цветные сабы тут же спалили антагониста.
*За что такие абьюзивные отношения с мамой?
*А отец то где? Всю игру гонялись, ни единого намёка.

Вывод: Всё хорошо в этой игре. Но не сама игра как квест.
