Unveiling "Crown of Bones": Century Games' Latest Triumph Enters Soft Launch Phase

Author: Ryan Dec 10,2024

Century Games, the studio behind the hit game Whiteout Survival, has quietly soft-launched a new strategy title: Crown of Bones. Players assume the role of a skeleton king, commanding an army of skeletal minions. The gameplay involves upgrading your forces and battling mortal enemies.

Following the success of Whiteout Survival, Century Games' expansion into new genres is unsurprising. However, the soft launch of Crown of Bones in several regions, including the US and Europe, might have gone unnoticed by some.

Crown of Bones is a casual strategy game where you lead a skeletal army. Gameplay involves battling foes across diverse environments, from fertile farmlands to arid deserts, while upgrading your skeletal troops. The game features a family-friendly aesthetic, emphasizing upgrades, collectibles, and escalating challenges. Players can even compete on leaderboards against friends and other players.

Currently, details on Crown of Bones are limited. However, judging by the success of Whiteout Survival, which drew inspiration from other strategy games, it's likely Crown of Bones will also borrow elements from existing titles. This isn't necessarily a criticism; the casual approach to survival, reminiscent of Frostpunk, clearly resonated with players.

Further observation of Crown of Bones will clarify its position in the market. Given Whiteout Survival's success, Crown of Bones could potentially become Century Games' next major franchise.
