Crown of Bones is Century Games\' newest release, now in soft launch
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 undead 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 in regions including the US and Europe, offers a casual strategy experience. Players lead their skeletal army across diverse landscapes, from fertile farmlands to barren deserts, upgrading their troops as they progress.
Maintaining a family-friendly aesthetic with charming, non-offensive graphics, Crown of Bones emphasizes upgrades, collectible items, and escalating challenges. Players can even compete against friends and other players on leaderboards.
While details are still emerging, Crown of Bones appears to draw inspiration from other strategy games, a trend not unexpected given the success of Whiteout Survival's casual approach to cold survival, reminiscent of Frostpunk. Further observation will be needed to fully assess its unique elements.
The potential success of Crown of Bones remains to be seen, but given the popularity of Whiteout Survival, it could become Century Games' next major title. After trying Crown of Bones, consider exploring our weekly roundup of the top five new mobile games.
