To be honest, I have not really been impressed with web3 games or blockchain games as generally they are just NFT trading card games. And perhaps because I thought trading cards was something you did as a small child, it was not exactly exciting to me. Or they are usually ages old before I know about them and are just playing catch up.
However, I was very intrigued and eager to try out CrownRend as it is a strategy game developed by the creator of the Hive/discord @FRIDAYbot that I use and Hive Witness @deathwing and his straight talking partner in crime @mrtats.
It is described as ...
it’s an incremental, semi-idle, online strategy game.
by @deathwing and that tickled my fancy by being right up my street!
Before we start I am going to give you four things.
1 My referral link ~ yes your referral will earn a teeny wee bit of Hive when you sign up via their referral link
2 The Announcement Post by @deathwing Announcing Crownrend | A Kingdom-Building Online Strategy Game!
3 The first game guide from the co-creator @mrtats Beginner's Guide to Crownrend
4 The Discord Server for Crownrend

Welcome to Crownrend, tengolotodo!
To create your kingdom, a one-time payment of 19.429 HIVE is required.
Current HIVE price: $0.51469483
The UI is simple enough and easy on the eye.
It is a rolling screen and you can see at the top we have our player info.
To the right of your Realm name is a share button that is actually your referral link ... Mine incase you are intrigued enough to join is .... because ....
It starts off with your Army Stats and then your Domain Stats..
There are Items that you own and Items that can be bought in the Marketplace.
and look who is the only with something to sell. I imagine they were a tester as the ID is 7 etc.
So my 10 dollars Game Entry purchase gave me 10 DENAR
We shall look at ARMY STATS First...
Fluff me I need to do one more then win some!!!
Player Rankings are simple to see, and you have a KP which is basically the sum of all your Army Stats Levels.
A fight or battle it is called a RAID
To make a Raid all you have to do is go to the BATTLE HALL
There will be a list of available opponents in descending order of ranking,
Simply choose who you want to Raid and click the red Raid button on the right.
You get 8 Raids initially as that is the maximum amount of Charges you can have. So see who you can beat and go steal their Denar!
We get 8 out of 8 wins...
However, as I was writing this post just after my battles ... Some fluffers were attacking me and stealing my Denar!
It appears there is a recharge on the raid every hour.
I have one available now.
However, I might do some market purchases to give me a leg up!
In the Battle Hall you can see under a player's name on the left hand side the amount of Denar they have.
If you want to catch up with other players or simply speed up your progress then you can purchase DENAR from the Hive Engine secondary market. This is the screenshot of 2.5 DENAR I purchased.
Step 1 ... Click on the Blue Wallet symbol to the left of your user name in the top right hand corner.
Step 2
Enter the amount to Deposit
Note to Withdraw just enter the amount and click the red Withdraw button!
Claiming Unclaimed Denar
Step 1 Click the Claim button found under your name on the right hand side.
Step 2 Click when claimable again.
You can claim every four hours.
So yeah I sold some unwanted layer 2 tokens and bought some 67 Denar
It pulled me up the rankings to 23rd..
PS There are stacks of things in the works and I know that Alliances/Guilds call it what you want but Team play is on the cards ...
And if you know me, I love teamwork!
It is fun and I am enjoying it! I love how easy it is, strategy will come but it does not require learning a thousand and one card play options!

@tengolotodo January 12th 2025
Just joined with your ref link !
Thanks for let me know about this game !
You are a star, thank you.
How are you enjoying yourself?
Getting off to a nice start, i'm trying to be F2P but i think i may have to pick up a little DENAR soon
I was going to see about just doing F2P but I thought it is early enough that picking up some DENAR was a good way to keep up with some players and not fall too far behind.
Seems interesting but i do not have time for a new game.
The 8 battles are finished in less than a minute and you can claim your unclaimed Denar every four hours. In reality you only need about 5 minutes a day to play, which is my level of time involvement in a game!
I mean mentally, in terms of attention. I play too many of them. :)

this particular game gave the golem overlord vibes back in the days and it is actually fun keeping to time just to raid and claim the token you stole from other players. it is too early enough to decide but we enjoy while we can
Ohhh
Hive games are getting much more varied.
This seems like clash of clans and stuff though.
I easily get bored of such games 😂😂
I used to love PlayStation when it first came out. To be honest I like poker, and loads of games bore me. I remember playing some Titans game and was a big alliance leader spent a bloody fortune too.
But this just a bit of fun, check in every four hours and claim your Denar and back to what you were doing.
Good to see another game on hive, one can just play games and post and get rewarded.
This seems more my kind of game, just check it every four hours for a couple of minutes lol
i would like try but its looks like a missions game per hours and actually i dont have time to be checking if the missions has done :D
Every eight hour you do the 8 missions (battles) in about 2 minutes in total.
You could spend five minutes a day on the game. I have time to spend 5 minutes a day.
This game is getting pretty popular, haha!
I like it' simplicity!
I got to try this out!
Simple , quick and fun I find it Katy,
I’m ready. More Free Hive.
It's fun and being ready is the way!
It seems to be an interesting and fun game. At that rate, surely, you'll be able to take the top spots soon. Hugs
Hehe well I won't take the top spots, there will be lots of people spending Hive to do that.
It is fun though and easy to play. I like simple! Big hugs to Venezuela.
Great content! Thanks for sharing it on Hive.
We’d love to see you join Block Horse Racing and start winning!

No se pudo descontar ningún uso, o no había usos disponibles.
A moment ago also another content about a game in the hive ecosystem. CROWNREND apparently is another very good option of the games that are in the ecosystem, it is certainly something I will keep in mind for later.
I don't do much gaming in Hive. I like simple fun things, as CROWNREND is that.
looks interesting!!
I like it, simple and fun.
Their attempts to intimidate and silence their critics are equally concerning. The use of downvotes as a means of censorship is a clear indication of their desperation to maintain their grip on the narrative. But it's not working

The Hive community has been plagued by a rise in spam accounts sharing stolen content. Many of these accounts appear to be linked to a single super farm that we've exposed @memesandstuff superfarm and we believe a prominent whale may be behind it
A Call to Action Against Downvote Abuse on Hive
Bad downvotes on Hive are a growing concern that must be addressed. These downvotes not only discourage users from sharing their real thoughts and ideas but also damage the community as a whole, we see many walk away

The Buildawhale farm scam has been a topic of concern for us, and we've exposed it. However, despite our attempts to bring attention to this issue, it seems that no concrete actions have been taken to address it. This lack of response is puzzling
Let's discuss a more serious issue that affects all on Hive. The prevalence of bad downvotes on Hive is a major concern, and we urge you to speak up if you've been affected by it. Don't be afraid to share your experiences speak up
Fighting a Losing Battle When you try to silence the truth with downvotes and lies, it's not just the truth that suffers - it's your own credibility. As the transactions are publicly visible, it's clear that attempts to suppress the truth

I'll save this for future reference. It's quite interesting. Btw, do I have to use the referral link even if I already have a hive account?
It is fun and simple, and not time consuming. You can use any link or go straight to the game, they introduced a referral link when somebody does a get of Hive for referring someone. I don't know how much it is but it won't be very much.
!PIZZA
I saw your kingdom's name in the rankings and was asking myself "what might be the reference here?" and now I have the answer! !LOL :)
Hope not to cross the swords with your kingdom, as mine is quite smaller right now: I need to make my paesants work harder I guess 🤣
