Rats are loose in a little medieval town, and the people they bite fall ill. In Princess of Corinium unblocked you are the royal helper with a pocket full of potions and no sword at all.
You wander streets, houses, a church and a castle, picking up coins and keys as you go. It was created by Jasper Renow-Clarke for the 2023 js13k game jam, where the theme was the 13th century.
How to play Princess of Corinium
Click or tap a spot and she heads there by herself, working out a path around walls, fences and trees. Stand on a sign to read it. Doors lead to indoor rooms, and some rooms have stairs to an upper floor.
Most doors start locked. Each key you hold opens one, and that door stays open after. Step on a chest to open it and out comes a coin, a key or a potion. The wizard's shop sells red, green and blue potions for 2 coins and white ones for 5.
When a bitten villager's health falls far enough, they start dripping a color. Bump into them while holding that color, or white, to heal them. Spiders, bats, ghosts and other creatures will chase you, so keep an eye on your own health bar too.

Tips
- Look at the drip color first. It tells you exactly which cheap potion that villager needs.
- Keep one white potion spare. It costs more, but it cures anyone, which helps when you are short on the right color.
- Choose doors carefully. Every key vanishes once it opens a door, so spend keys on places you still need to search.
- Walk around monsters. Creatures only chase you when you get close. A longer path is better than taking damage.
- Let her arrive. Shop items, doors and stairs only work once she stops on the tile, so pick it and wait.
Princess of Corinium questions
How do I win Princess of Corinium?
Collect every coin, potion and chest outside the shop. A message then tells you the town is safe. Refresh the page for a fresh game.
What happens if a villager is not cured?
If their health runs out, they become a ghoul that haunts the churchyard. Curing people early keeps the town safer.
Can I play on a tablet?
Yes. Everything works with taps, and the view follows the princess around. The game is wide, so turn the screen sideways.
