What it is about

Crowns is a card game for 3 to 6 players. Before each round you predict how many battles (tricks) you want to win, then try to hit exactly that number.

Whoever plans and plays their predictions best collects the most crowns and wins. You play with real cards at the table while the app on your phone records predictions, calculates scores and shows the round overview.

Crowns is in alpha. The game is being actively developed.

How a round works

  1. Cards are dealt. The number of cards in hand changes every round.

  2. Everyone predicts how many battles (tricks) they want to win.

  3. You play the battles one after another. You must follow the suit that was led whenever you can.

  4. After the round, predictions are compared with the results.

  5. Correct predictions earn crowns. Whoever has the most at the end wins.

What makes Crowns special

  • Planning over luck

    Every round is about your prediction. Calculate carefully, bluff and cheer along to win.

  • The app keeps score

    No counting, no mistakes. Every player’s score is shown clearly at a glance.

  • Build your own deck

    With or without special cards and the King: put the deck together the way your group likes it.

  • Shaped by feedback

    Feedback from real game nights goes straight back into the cards, the rules and the app.
