Crowntakers

Great game. I beat it on Android awhile ago. Bought it for IOS to beat again.

I would have given 5 stars were it no for a couple of crashes. But I highly recommend this game. It is fun and although you keep dying and having to start over, it is kept interesting because you u lock different archetypes of your character and the mercenaries you pick up on the road to save your father. I do wish you got to choose more than one character. Does the king really only have one son and (spoiler alert! The son has an evil twin) Now that the king is saved , he and the queen need to get to business and make more heirs to the kingdom. For Crowntakers 2!

I sincerely disagree with some of the reviews I’ve seen. Saying it’s imbalanced. I played the hardest difficulty and completed the game on my 3rd try. Not sure about how “good” the other reviewers are in terms of turn based games, but I consider my self amateur and I beat it so yeah. Now for the entire campaign, it crashed on me at least 10 times. Maybe more. So hence the 4 stars. Keep up the good work.

Fun, short game with lots of replayabilty value, but it crashes all the time, especially just after killing a boss (meaning you have to kill it again). Super annoying, but gameplay is still addictive enough to keep me playing.

I’m looking for a few things from RPGs that this delivers real good. There’s some challenge, but it’s not a pure exponential numbers game where you just need to grind to get your numbers higher. It is a roguelike in that the battles and maps are randomly generated, and you are likely to lose a few times before you figure out how to win. That’s a key part of the game. However it’s not a roguelike like nethack: it’s not infinitely deep and detailed. Which is good for me because I don’t have time for an insane learning curve right now. The UI is well designed and quick enough. It hasn’t been updated in a while so it doesn’t fill my screen, but it’s still quite pretty. No prob. I might play this occasionally for months.

This game had so much promise but the execution is average, bordering on lazy bad. I’ve developed games for over 12 years in this industry and it’s a shame really you have instant kill, no save. Yes you allow for experience to stay with characters which is good, but then you make it next to impossible to make enough money to buy food to get HPs back. How lame is it that when I spend 2gp for rest that my characters are not refreshed as well?? Simple things are overlooked and dying a third time on easy mode means the game is too hard and not balanced properly. I give 3 stars for the effort as it had promise, but I’m done now. Hopefully the rest of the developer games are not like this. Suggestions to fix game are; make food and drink available at all taverns (not limited) and allow full health restore at rest stops. I’d have given you a 4-5 star just with those. I know you can patch it btw and if you do, I might be back.

The game is great I love the art style and fighting mechanics. Turn based strategy very cool. Honestly I find normal difficulty too hard. I could get to stage 4 but there just weren’t enough items / gold to get by. Gold seemed always in short supply. Anyway easy is fun and more progressive. Game is like Heroes of Might and Magic, good stuff!

I did really like this game but calling it an rpg is incorrect. It has the battle mechanics of like a banner saga ( which I like) but there are no role playing mechanics. The armor/weapons are all the same in terms of how you upgrade, only ability to customize is in gems with different perks. You can’t change how the armor/weapon looks. Also your main character is always a warrior, you can change some of his abilities but you can’t make him an archer or mage. You have to choose which companion is good at which task despite the companions never talk or interact with you so I have no idea how you would know one is good at singing and one is good at chess besides googling. The companions don’t talk to you and have no interaction. All the other “choices” are search the cave/hut or whatever for 9 hours and get more stuff or search the cave for 2 hours and get less stuff. Normal is too hard for relaxing play, which is what I want in a phone game. If I want something stressful/intense I’ll play a fully fledged PC game. But easy is too easy to be rewarding. It’s that ridiculous easy let’s you skip end of level bosses. Normal should be hard and there should be an actual normal difficulty level. Lastly, when I finally finished the game on normal ( which is harder than it sounds because of permadeath and items/XP not transferring to new character) the game cut out so I didn’t even get to see the ending, and not enough people play so I could easily find spoilers about ending online :(
