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 in the US and Europe, offers a casual strategy experience. Players lead their bony army across diverse landscapes, from fertile farmlands to barren deserts, upgrading their skeletal troops 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 against friends and other players on leaderboards.
While details are still scarce, Crown of Bones appears to draw inspiration from other successful strategy games, a tactic that clearly worked well for Whiteout Survival. The casual approach to cold survival, reminiscent of Frostpunk, proved highly successful for Century Games.
Further observation will reveal Crown of Bones's true potential. Given the popularity of Whiteout Survival, this new title could become Century Games' next flagship game. After trying Crown of Bones, consider exploring our weekly roundup of the top five new mobile games.
