Your coat of arms, in every game

These games are made by Crest Studio, the free coat of arms maker. Design your arms there and they ride with you: on your shield in the joust and the duel, on the banners of your castle, and beside your score at the archery butts. Your design is saved on your device, so there is nothing to sign up for.

Questions

Are the games free?

Yes. All eight games are free to play in your browser, with no download, no account and no purchase needed.

Can I play with friends online?

Yes. The Usurper is an online social deduction game for 4 to 10 players: open a private room and send your friends the link. Viking chess and Nine Men's Morris also have a two-player mode on one device, and every game has a share button to challenge a friend to beat your score.

Do they work on phones?

Yes. Every game is designed for touch first and also plays with a mouse and keyboard. Use the full-screen button under a game for the best view on a phone.

Are the games suitable for children?

Yes. There is no blood or gore: arrows hit targets, lances shatter, knights yield and walls crumble.

Do I need an account?

No. You play as a guest and your best scores stay in your own browser. If you want your progress on another device, choose Save my progress: you get a save code, which is your login. No email or password is needed. See the privacy policy.

What does my coat of arms have to do with it?

Design a coat of arms in Crest Studio and every game uses it: on your shield in the duel and the joust, on the banners of your castle and beside your score in the archery contest.
