DEFENDER OF THE CROWN – Commodore 64 (1987) | Cinemaware's Medieval Strategy Classic

Описание: Defender of the Crown is a 1987 strategy game developed by Cinemaware and released for the Commodore 64, among other platforms. Set in 12th-century England, the game follows the power struggle after the death of King Richard, where players assume the role of a Saxon lord aiming to reclaim the throne from Norman invaders.

The game combines turn-based strategy with action elements. Players manage territories, raise armies, and engage in various activities such as jousting tournaments, castle sieges, and sword fights. The goal is to conquer enemy castles and unite England under a single ruler.

Graphically, Defender of the Crown was groundbreaking for its time, featuring detailed animations and cinematic sequences that set new standards for home computer games. The game's music, composed by Jim Cuomo, further enhances the medieval atmosphere.

While the Commodore 64 version was praised for its engaging gameplay and innovative design, it was noted that some features present in other versions, such as the Amiga, were not included due to hardware limitations.

Defender of the Crown remains a classic in the strategy genre, remembered for its blend of action and strategy, and its contribution to the evolution of video game storytelling.
