Crown Gambit

gorgeous art, great characters & story - small choices can make a difference & plenty of replayability. combat style is super fun. last part drags on a bit with the number of battles you have to get through back to back.

If you can focus and remember a few names, this game will reward you with a well-written story and fantastic artwork

This game has amazing vibes. The visuals are striking, the writing is intriguing and encourages multiple playthroughs. The mechanics are tough (maybe I'm just dumb but almost too tough on highest difficulty?) and fun. One quibble is the text on steam deck is a bit difficult to read and the menus can act up a bit if you make the text bigger than a certain threshold but it's not a deal breaker IMO.

Amazing and very underrated game! Stunning art (drawn by a real human artist Gobert!) and a very interesting narrative where your choices really matter. The game raises important topics, has multiple endings and really worth to play it, especially if you're tired of animeish-like faces and storytelling. I 1000% recommend.

As a whole, the game is good and was definitely worth a play-through; I will probably after a break go back for a second playthrough. To me it's a bit of an 8.5/10 on every element -- the story could be tighter, the pacing more balanced, the rewards and tone clearer, the characters more compelling...but if you take every single element and put them together, the entire experience is fun!

this game is gorgeous and fun to play. love it. can't wait to see where my terrible story decisions take me

Absolutely lovely game if you're a fan of layered politicking, worldbuilding, some cosmic fantasy horror, and digging around for all the variables of the varying characters, relationships, and endings. I've only finished it once but the art design and story really caught me, and I'm excited to go achievement hunting.

Great gameplay and I loved the art. The story and world were intresting and engaging but not in master-piece level. 9/10, maybe when i replay it in a few years it will change to a 10/10

A very fun deckbuilder RPG with cool lore, fun (if somewhat simple) tactical gameplay, and gorgeous art. Recommended Update: The game dragged on in the latter half. The final act especially was full of combat filler and I was relieved to finish the game. I wish it leaned much harder on the choose-your-adventure style choices and less on the combat which grew stale as the tactics were the same for everything but the last boss. I'd still recommend it but with more reservations.

A good story and decent combat
