May 2025
Literally was tweaking when playing. Full on twitching eye, leg. Never have I been this angry, freaked out and frustrated with a game in my life. Passed first few battles on normal mode without any problems, then started losing, switched to easy mode, started losing even more. Genuinely did not notice much of a difference between the modes. The game style is truly a masterpiece. Enjoyed it a lot, though eyes definitely start hurting after 20-30 minutes of playing. Concentrating on a specific part of a map was almost impossible for me because everything was blending together. But might as well just be a 'me' problem due to a poor eyesight. Overall, I'd say that game is worth considering if you are up to something challenging. Otherwise, soft pass.

This game is a lot of fun! It's a pretty simple fast paced RTS, but is challenging on normal mode. The art style and soundtrack are amazing as well.

I loved this game. The aesthetics are fantastic. Very short and simple, which adds a lot to the experience. However, it can get very visually overwhelming as the game progresses and the map gets busy. I would not recommend getting it if you get eye strain easily or struggle with high contrast, as I had to stop a few times.

Pretty short but there is "domination mode" which is similar to an endless mode I only paid 99 cents for the game and I don't really have anything to complain about Its pretty simple with there being 3 buildings to place But I still found it enjoyable and not too easy or hard Some have issues with the art irritating the eyes You can try changing the color scheme in settings If nothing else there are good things in the steam points shop from it Overall an enjoyable experience but I would hesitate to pay 10 dollars

I generally don't like RTS games. I'm not good at them, I don't understand them, my brain just doesn't work in that way. Death Crown overcomes that by stripping everything back to the purest distillation of the genre. No tech trees or elaborate build orders, just three types of building - money building, troops building, defence building. Your troops march out at a steady rate without needing your input, kind of like in a MOBA - all you need to do is build the relevant buildings and set a path for them. Matches are short, compact and bloody. Death Crown is almost like an arcade version of an RTS, and for me that works a lot better. It feels ferocious and close-quarters, like a knife fight in a phone box. It does still offer you choices as to how you want to tackle your opponent, but I get that the people who like turtling and gradually building up their ideal army composition might not enjoy what this is doing. For someone who doesn't normally like RTS games, though, this might be the one that works for you. It is for me.
