Century Games, the creators of the hit game Whiteout Survival, have quietly soft-launched a new strategy game: Crown of Bones. Players assume the role of a skeleton king, commanding an army of skeletal minions. The gameplay involves upgrading your forces and battling mortal enemies.
Given the success of Whiteout Survival, Century Games' expansion into new genres isn't surprising. Crown of Bones, currently in soft launch in the US, Europe, and other regions, offers a casual strategy experience. Players lead their skeletal army across diverse environments, from lush farmlands to barren deserts, upgrading their troops along the way.
Maintaining a family-friendly aesthetic with charming, inoffensive graphics, Crown of Bones emphasizes upgrades, collectibles, and escalating challenges. Leaderboards allow players to compete against friends and other players worldwide.
While details are still emerging, Crown of Bones appears to draw inspiration from other successful strategy titles, a strategy that clearly worked for Whiteout Survival. The casual approach to survival, reminiscent of Frostpunk, proved highly effective for Century Games.
Further observation will be needed to fully assess Crown of Bones's position in the market. However, given the success of Whiteout Survival, Crown of Bones has the potential to become Century Games' next flagship title.
