Crown of Ash is a worker placement and area control game for 1 to 4 players.
Each player takes on the role of a vengeful necromancer, sending loyal minions out to carry out their will. You gather resources to raise undead armies, build structures that improve your resource income, and extend your influence across the land. Your undead forces fight battles to take control of rival structures while you defend your own.
The game plays over four rounds, with Victory Points earned for controlling structures. The player with the most influence at the end claims dominion over the kingdom.
Key Features
- Easy to learn: Streamlined gameplay with strategic depth for both new and experienced players.

- Colorblind-friendly and language-independent: Designed to be accessible to a wider audience.
