In March of last year, Kalypso Media released a refreshing take on the roguelike genre with Crowntakers ($2.99). By taking elements from turn-based strategy RPGs and blending in some of the most popular elements of roguelikes, they created an experience that was more than the sum of its parts. Also, by including two difficult levels, one where you could take your characters and experience levels with you game to game and one that was truly permadeath and caused you to start completely over upon death, Crowntakers appealed to a wide audience of gamers. We loved it in our review and really the only problem was that Crowntakers was an iPad-only game, limiting the amount of people who could play it. Well, that’s no longer going to be the case as Kalypso has announced that Crowntakers will be receiving iPhone support this coming January. Here’s how the game will look on the iPhone.
According to their press release, the iPhone compatibility will come as a free update to owners of the iPad version of Crowntakers. However, they also make it sound like there will be a standalone iPhone version released alongside the iPad version’s update. Either way, I’m excited to finally give this game the proper attention it deserves on my iPhone, which is far and away my main gaming device. Look for Crowntakers on the iPhone at some point this coming January.
boring game
The touch arcade comments section; where insight, intelligence and objectivity come to die.
Well, if he thinks the game is boring, then he's entitled to his opinion, and we're entitled to disagree with him. However, that does not mean anyone gets to make veiled insults and smug dismissals like you just did. It does the TouchArcade community zero favor.
Nothing veiled about it. A worthless comment with opinion stated as fact is worthy of nothing but contempt. I find your comment equally moronic for supporting low quality posts. Hope that's not too veiled for you.
Nice idea for the game, but with iritaiting commentary scenes, too big game size,
it looks like half finished game.
one star rating and it should be free
dont waste your money buying this shit
actually you can get for free through ds emulator if you don't mind the ds graphics that is.
You can get anything for free by stealing.
???
I object to Internet requirement in my single player games. Unacceptable.
The file size is also inexplicably huge.
Fix it fix it fix it fix it! Fix it fix it fix it! And then you can take my money!
Playable Matlock confirmed!?
It's a great game :)
But already own the ds Cartridge with my 3ds
Y'all should check spirit of justice, the latest in the franchise 👍🏽
played it.The game was brilliant really hope the inevitable new one comes out sooner than three years.
So, unless I missed it, there's no portrait mode. That's disappointing, I liked the one-handed DS feel of it. And, ah, no cheevos? Truly RIP Game Center.
Interesting that Justice For All is namechecked for its lows. I admit, I stopped after that one. I really enjoyed the first one, but found I'd had enough after the sequel. Now I feel reassured, I'm definitely going to go back for Trials and Tribulations. After that, we'll see.
