Crown Trick vs Overlord: Fellowship of Evil
Crown Trick
Crown Trick is a roguelike adventure RPG that’s set in the Realm of Nightmares. In this game, nightmares from this realm have spewed forth, bringing pain and suffering upon the inhabitants of the mortal realm. As the last remaining dreamwalker, albeit a novice, you, playing as a young girl called Elle, are the only one left to save the world from the never-ending nightmares, and with the help of the arrogant yet omniscient Crown, you might be able to do just that!In a roguelike context, Crown Trick is perhaps the very first to use what is a rare gameplay mechanism to further enhance its turn-based gameplay, and not every move or action will consume a turn either. There are some abilities, blinking for instance, which will allow you to move and perform an action in a single turn, but of course, you will have a limited number of blinks, and restoring them takes some strategizing, especially during boss fights, as well.
As a dungeon crawler of sorts, Crown Trick offers players a nice variety of loot, ranging from the usual weapons and consumable items, to the much more valuable relics that grant permanent passive abilities for the entire dungeon run. As mentioned before, weapons in this game have different attack ranges and grids, and this is important when considering which weapons to equip since you can only have one at any time, and which Familiar abilities (which we’ll cover in a bit), items and relics to complement the weapon you’ve chosen.
Crown Trick is truly one of the best indie roguelikes that I’ve had the pleasure of playing and reviewing. It’s not as hard as Children of Morta mainly because of its turn-based-like format but its quality is on par with the former game and that’s the highest praise I could give. So, to sum up, if you love turn-based games and roguelikes, Crown Trick is one game you mustn’t miss out on!
Overlord: Fellowship of Evil
Overlord: Fellowship of Evil lets you experience a warped and twisted, dark fantasy world in an action RPG that rewards the bad and venerates the evil. Featuring four brand-new Netherghuls, resurrected servants of the dark arts; a horde of maniacal minions as well as the horde's master, Gnarl, you'll have more ways than ever to cause mischievous humor, decimate or subjugate the population or simply perpetuate chaos and mayhem. You can develop your minions so they can withstand any resistance more easily. Best yet, you can even play the game cooperatively with up three friends locally or online.Overlord: Fellowship of Evil is the sort of rare game that simply give you the tools to cause total and utter mayhem and leave you to decide how to go about instilling terror into the AI populace. It's definitely a fun game to play when you need to blow off some steam, but bear in mind that this game is in no way the third installment of the popular Overlord franchise. Think of it as a more casual spin-off.
