As part of Steam’s current Real-Time Strategy Fest, this epic dark fantasy game is perfect for those looking for a Skyrim-esque title to get stuck into.

Starting earlier this week and running until 27 January, Steam is hosting its Real-Time Strategy Fest which sees games under this genre taking the spotlight.

As a result, there are plenty of sales and demos to get stuck into, including one for this epic fantasy title.

Available to try out for absolutely free, Crown of Greed is a tower defence title by developers BLUM Entertainment and will remind players of their beloved The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim.

“Greetings, heir of Rodovia,” the official Steam synopsis reads.

“Are you ready to claim your rightful throne?

If so, know this – ruling a fantasy kingdom is no easy feat. Welcome to the Crown of Greed Demo, a classic strategy game inspired by old-school traditions, featuring a unique indirect command system, so unusual among other strategy games.”

You must learn to survive in the hostile realm of Rodovia by bending your subjects to your will via a unique indirect management system.

This means you will get to plan, build, and manage as well as accept bounties for heroes who may or may not be willing to risk it all for the realm.

In the free demo, you will have the chance to create and defend your very own foothold as well as recruit and upgrade three basic hero classes: the rogue, the warrior and the hunter.

They are yours to command but their free will could see them ignore your orders and plunge the realm into financial ruin.

Crown of Greed will see you manage every aspect of your realm and so you will have to use real-time strategy to make sure it flourishes.

So try it before you buy as the full game is set to launch in Q2 of 2025.
