About this game
Build, muster, and crusade across medieval Europe using a personal rondel that evolves as you play. Each action slot on your rondel holds tokens; spend tokens to take that action, then distribute tokens clockwise, powering up future actions in a mancala-like mechanism. Build structures for permanent bonuses, muster knights for military power, and crusade to claim influence across the map. The rondel manipulation creates a satisfying optimization puzzle where every action sets up the next. Clean, strategic, and endlessly replayable.
