About

Build and rule your kingdom in this fast-paced city builder for 1-6 players! Use a magical crown to protect your people from danger, grow food, and collect resources. Keep your citizens content, or they might just join the bandits!

You are a ruler who wields a magical, ancient crown that can steal souls. Use its power to build a kingdom in a dangerous land and protect your people from the mutants and bandits who threaten it.

Start small by building and collecting resources, then grow your settlement into a powerful, independent kingdom. As your reputation spreads, people will join you, but enemies will also emerge, and you may even face betrayal in cooperative gameplay with up to six players.

Key Features

  • Build Anywhere – Construct a kingdom from scratch and transform the wilderness into a developed community. Decide which buildings go where, and then manage your citizens to automate everything from there! Don’t like where you placed something? Just pick it up and toss it somewhere else!
  • Lift Anything – Throw whole trees at the sawmill to make planks or run through the forest carrying your sawmill to absorb trees along the way! Resource gathering is fun and easy thanks to your crown’s power. Or maybe you have too many enemies around. Pick up monster nests and place them near bandit camps to have them fight each other instead (and obtain free loot!).
  • Fight Like an Anime Protagonist – Villagers being eaten by mutants? Run across a lake at 100 km/h to rescue them in time! Being shot at by outlaws up in the hills? Spin-attack so fast that you take off like a helicopter and descend on them from the skies!
  • Survive the Seasons – Manage resources and stockpile enough food to last the winter. Guard your farmlands (and peasants) from hungry mutants while waiting for your crops to grow. Keep polluting workshops away or see the land turn barren. Ultimately, keep your people happy or see them desert you for the outlaws.
  • Play with Friends – Overthrown can be played offline in single-player, or with a group of up to six friends in online cooperative play! However—only one can wear the crown.
