Century Games, the creators of the hit game Whiteout Survival, have quietly soft-launched a new strategy game: Crown of Bones. In this game, players become a skeleton king, commanding an army of skeletal minions. The goal? Lead your bony brigade, upgrade their abilities, and conquer the mortal realm!
Given the success of Whiteout Survival, Century Games' expansion into new genres isn't surprising. Crown of Bones, however, has seen a relatively stealthy soft launch in several regions, including the US and Europe. But what exactly is it about?
Early information suggests Crown of Bones is a casual strategy game where you play as a Skeleton King leading a quirky army of skeletal warriors. As you battle enemies across diverse landscapes, from lush farmlands to barren deserts, you'll upgrade your forces and unlock new challenges.
Similar to Whiteout Survival, the game boasts a family-friendly aesthetic with charming, non-threatening graphics. The core gameplay revolves around upgrades, collecting items, and progressively difficult levels, with leaderboards allowing competition against friends and other players.
Currently, details about Crown of Bones are limited. However, based on Whiteout Survival's success, it's likely to draw inspiration from other popular strategy titles. This isn't necessarily a criticism, considering the casual approach to survival mechanics (similar to Frostpunk) in their previous release proved incredibly popular.
Further exploration of Crown of Bones will reveal its true potential. Given Whiteout Survival's impressive performance, Crown of Bones could very well become Century Games' next major success.
