Games Like Painted Crowns

Descend through a shifting pixel-art dungeon, swap colors to break enemy defenses, and choose whether to kill or stun your way through a ruined world divided by rival crowns.

Every crown leaves a stain.

The Ink was created to heal a dying world. Frogs gave it renewal. Mushrooms gave it memory. Then their rulers fought to own it—and the cure became a living catastrophe known as the Long Spill.

From the village of Frogshroom, descend through the buried reservoirs where that disaster began. Battle strange enemies, uncover sealed histories, and decide which crown—if either—deserves your loyalty.

Master Color-Changing Combat

Swap between red and blue to counter enemy defenses, navigate dense projectile patterns, and create openings with precisely timed stuns. Dash through danger, perfect your reloads, and defeat numbered enemies in order to earn greater rewards.

Choose How You Fight

Enemies do not always need to die. Develop your stun abilities and attempt a nonlethal descent—or embrace destruction and deal with the reputation you leave behind.

Dungeon inhabitants can also be rescued, ignored, or killed. The Frog Court and Mushroom Crown will remember your decisions.

Every Descent Is Different

Explore procedurally assembled rooms filled with shifting enemy combinations, secret chambers, treasure, breakable environments, quests, and increasingly dangerous challenges. The deeper you travel, the more aggressive the dungeon becomes.

Build Your Champion

Collect Ink, coins, equipment, and permanent upgrades. Unlock new playable characters, weapons, hats, and pets, then shape a build suited to your preferred style—whether that means overwhelming firepower, perfect movement, or mastering the stun system.
