Bones Unveiled: Century Games' Crown Captivates Early Adopters

Century Games, the creators of the hit game Whiteout Survival, have quietly soft-launched a new strategy game: Crown of Bones. In this title, players assume the role of a skeleton king commanding an army of skeletal minions. The gameplay involves upgrading your forces and engaging in battles against mortal enemies.

Given the success of Whiteout Survival, Century Games' expansion into new genres is unsurprising. Crown of Bones, currently in soft launch across the US and Europe, presents a casual strategy experience. Players lead their bony army through diverse environments, from lush farmlands to barren deserts, upgrading their skeletal warriors along the way.

Maintaining a family-friendly aesthetic with charming, non-threatening visuals, Crown of Bones emphasizes upgrades, collectibles, and progressively challenging levels. Players can even compete on leaderboards against friends and other players.

While details are still emerging, Crown of Bones appears to draw inspiration from other strategy games, a trend not uncommon in the genre. This approach, similar to Whiteout Survival's successful emulation of Frostpunk's casual survival mechanics, could prove a winning formula once again.

Further observation is needed to fully assess Crown of Bones's potential. However, considering Whiteout Survival's popularity, this new title has the potential to become Century Games' next flagship game.
