After spending several hours with the demo of "Crown Wars: The Black Prince," I would like to share my initial impressions. A comprehensive update to this review will follow as I spend more time in the game.

War of the Crowns: A Grim Medieval Atmosphere

"Crown Wars: The Black Prince" takes us to 14th century France, where knights and bandits roam the land while dark forces scheme in the shadows. The game's grim atmosphere is enhanced by its accurate depiction of the historical period and the introduction of occultism and dark arts. This unique element adds depth to the game, presenting the Hundred Years' War in a new and fascinating light.

Challenging Turn-Based Strategy

As a fan of tactical and strategy games, I was eager to try out the turn-based battles and management elements of the game. The challenges presented are varied and require both strategic thinking and good resource management. Assembling troops for each mission and the necessity to manage resources wisely create an intense and satisfying gameplay experience.

Diverse Soldier Classes and Tactical Depth

One of the game's greatest strengths is the variety of soldier classes and their unique abilities. With classes such as Crusaders, Alchemists, and Beastmasters, the game offers numerous possibilities for strategic troop combinations and synergy utilization. The ability to upgrade soldiers and customize their abilities adds depth to the game, allowing for personalized and effective troop formations.

Building and Managing Your Domain

The aspect of base-building and domain management is also well executed. Upgrading buildings and crafting new items for combat provide a meaningful addition to the tactical battles. This management part of the game requires strategic thinking and long-term planning, adding another layer of complexity to the game.

Atmosphere and Design

The game's atmosphere is captivating, and the graphics are impressive, especially the detailed recreations of historical weapons and characters such as Nicolas Flamel and Edward of Woodstock. The design of the dark arts and occult elements adds an eerie and exciting touch to the game.

Conclusion: A Promising Start

"Crown Wars: The Black Prince" has captivated and convinced me so far. The blend of historical accuracy, tactical depth, and dark fantasy creates a unique and engaging gaming experience. The first few hours have shown that the game has great potential to appeal to fans of turn-based strategy games and lovers of dark medieval settings alike. I look forward to spending more time with the game and sharing further impressions in a future update of this review.

Crown Wars: The Black Prince is a Tactical Turn-Based Rpg game.

The game is set in the historical medieval event of the war of the hundred years (13xx-14xx) between France and England adding some mysticism.

The Tactical gameplay it's great, make me remember similar to tittles like wartales but adding a personal touch like finisher cinematics that can be skipped in options if want, also some error design like arrow positioning that I think it's not necesary be so complex on a turn based game, make it less fluid; but the rpg part of the game feels very solid with many classes and weapons which each one has different skill.

The visual aspect isn't bad neither but there are a few minor performance issues related that should be adressed and fixed in future updates.

Camera movements controls are super bad, I changed them to WSAD but W always activate overwatch(can't key bind overwatch ffs) also most annoying game breaking bug hasnt been fix since the first demo, if you think its a smart idea to place archer at the top of your walls and you think guy with the dagger wont hit you from 2 square high difference you are wrong xD
Performance is very bad. On my RTX 4070ti on 1440p I have about 90fps... This game doesnt even look nice... I like gameplay and I enjoyed the demo but there is so much to fix still...

Edit. They removed key "W" for overwatch.
Ps. Positive review for a good comunication Nacon. Hope You will fix the rest of the issues. I like this game to be honest.
