Crowns and Pawns: Kingdom of Deceit is a point-and-click adventure game developed by Lithuanian independent game studio Tag of Joy. Inspired by heavyweights of the genre such as Broken Sword, players take control of Milda – a girl from Chicago – as she unravels a mystery that will see her packing her bags and journeying through modern-day Europe ‘to reveal the secrets of the King who was never crowned.’
