About Rotten Crown
Rotten Crown is a real-time settlement manager with a very unethical ruler. You gather resources, give your settlers jobs and grow your kingdom, and when someone can't keep up, you and your enormous axe decide what happens to them.
The undead are part of the world rather than the enemy. You learn how they move, build defences, and win some of them over with the remains of earlier victims, so that zombies can work the night shift while the living rest. The campaign is a set of handmade scenarios, narrated by someone who treats every disaster as paperwork.
Still Running is making it, and HypeTrain Digital publishes it. It's coming to Steam for Windows; there's no date yet.
