Crown Siege: Boss Guides and Fight Checklists

Boss and elite fights that actually stalled my run. Pre-fight = skill tree between crown clicks; in-fight = once you are on the battlefield.

Route: 100% walkthrough.

Goblin King

First real gear check — economy upgrades beat raw unit count.

Phase	Action
Pre-fight	Starting gold, scout damage, double gold (+10%), +100% gold from enemies.
In-fight	Spawn scouts; collect coins; focus Goblin King; if tower falls, battle ends.
Win	Click crown to claim.

Frog Queen

Swamp queen — I lost when I chased; staying on the tower fixed it.

Phase	Action
Objective	Defeat queen of the swamp.
Pre-fight	Golden Knight upgrade (25% proc, 5×/1.2×/10× stats) when available; Arrow Rain.
In-fight	Stay near tower — do not chase across map. Archer line + spells on queen; golden knights deal heavy damage.

Frog Queen / frog mage boss — stay on the tower

Mushroom boss and spore swarm

Mushroom line — expect a wipe, then pivot to trappers and traps.

Mushroom village boss

Phase	Action
First attempt	Knights, archers, scouts; poison spell; keep enemies off tower.
If you lose	Upgrade tower health, archer attack speed, arrow range, spell duration — I was short on reinforcements.
Target order	Smaller boss without crown first, then main boss.

Spore swarm (after mushroom)

Phase	Action
Setup	Max archers; unlock trapper; replace scouts.
Upgrades	Target dummy, spike trap, trapper health, build speed.
Comp	Trappers, knights, archers; spam defense.

Big golden boss — smaller crown target first when you can

White King and Black King

Chess kings — one of them is fake; watch HP, not the crown sprite.

Boss	Tactic
White King	Focus him down; track position to avoid losing troops.
Black King	Hides in group without large crown; find what takes damage when attacked.
Prep	Crossbow upgrades and tower investment.

Fairy boss (flying monkeys)

Fairy hides in the monkey pack — mark her before your DPS melts adds.

Phase	Action
In-fight	Locate fairy boss among flying monkeys; focus troops on her.
Tools	AoE spells and whatever your tree has unlocked by then.

Fairy boss among flying monkeys — focus the fairy, not the adds

Cyclops (Forest Cave)

Cyclops — tower HP and swapping trapper → knight for Golden Knight procs.

Phase	Action
Pre-fight	Tower health; swap trapper for knight for Golden Knight procs.
In-fight	Rush Cyclops when he appears; golden knights beat low-level paladins on my file.
Reward	Achievement unlocked on defeat.

Cyclops in Forest Cave — rush him when he spawns

Dragon boss (Fire Mountain / Growling Echoes)

Late dragon checks — pure DPS and troop count.

Fight	Tactic
Fire Mountain	Focus all troops on dragon.
Growling Echoes	Summon 100+ troops; steer with the cursor when adds distract.

By then I had pyromancer and late ember upgrades online.

Small dragon boss — stack troops and focus fire

Cursed King

Final stretch — same king pattern, then triple-click the crown.

Phase	Action
Districts	Slums, merchants district, narrow alleys, noble cross — repeated cursed king fights with hand slam.
Hand attack	Dodge; move troops off the tower when the hand comes down.
Loadout	Shadow, paladin, electro mage, healer; astral beam.
Electro mage	Fully upgraded 349,000 damage before I re-entered the districts.
King’s Palace	Defeat cursed king; big beam; dodge.
Ending	Click crown three times after victory.

Other high-priority targets (not full boss pages)

Enemy	Notes
Banner goblin (red, banner)	Buffs enemies — kill quickly.
Witch (Hansel & Gretel)	Rush witch when she spawns; do not stay on castle.
Hog Rider boss	Scarecrow on hog — focus boss.
Chunky mosquito	Hard to see; low health, elusive; Astral Beam helps.
