Century Games, the studio behind the hit game Whiteout Survival, has quietly soft-launched a new strategy game: Crown of Bones. In this title, players become a skeleton king, commanding an army of skeletal minions. The gameplay involves upgrading your undead forces and battling mortal enemies across diverse landscapes.
Crown of Bones' success is hardly surprising given the popularity of Whiteout Survival. Currently in soft launch in the US and Europe, this casual strategy game casts players as a Skeleton King leading a quirky army of bony warriors. Players will upgrade their skeletal troops while conquering a variety of environments, from lush farmlands to harsh deserts.
Maintaining a family-friendly aesthetic with charming, non-threatening visuals, Crown of Bones emphasizes upgrades, collectibles, and progressively challenging levels. Players can even compete against friends and other players on leaderboards.
While details are still scarce, Crown of Bones appears to draw inspiration from other strategy games, a tactic that clearly worked well for Whiteout Survival. The studio's previous success with a casual take on survival, reminiscent of Frostpunk, sets high expectations for this new release.
Further observation of Crown of Bones will reveal its true potential. Given Whiteout Survival's popularity, Crown of Bones could very well become Century Games' next major success.
