## Description
Imagine an enchanted world where a lush forest is split by the Crystal River. This is the home of Brightspring, a small kingdom ruled by the wise Queen Beavery. The Queen has a logistical dilemma: she wants to visit her subjects across the kingdom's four regions evenly, but the seven existing bridges make this impossible without repeating paths. To solve this puzzle, the kingdom needs an eighth bridge, and that's where you come in!

In Kingdom Crossing, you take on the role of a royal coordinator tasked with making this construction a reality. The game is a treat for those who love thinking several steps ahead, blending engine-building with programmed movement. You'll need to explore the realm, recruit the most skilled artisans, gather the necessary construction materials, and, of course, create magnificent decorations to ensure the bridge becomes the crown jewel of Brightspring.

The biggest challenge? The golden rule: you can never cross the same bridge more than once in a single day. This restriction turns every round into an exercise in logic and spatial planning, drawing direct inspiration from the famous mathematical 'Seven Bridges of Königsberg' problem. If you enjoy games where the route you choose is just as critical as the resources you collect, this game will keep you engaged. Additionally, for solo players, the game features an Automa system with four difficulty levels, ensuring the challenge remains fresh even without other players at the table. Get your maps ready, summon your artisans, and help Queen Beavery finally connect her kingdom!
