Take Thy Throne Reviews

I actually really like this game it reminds me of "King arthurs gold" I bought this game because I saw that it has an amazing art style! The developers are really nice! The community is going to be awesome! The balance in the game is insane the matches are insanely fun there is single player and MULTIPLAYER it's awesome really good ping just wish I could get 60 fps instead of 30

Bought it a bit after the first update, expected more updates to come. Convinced friends to get it too, for a fun time. No more updates came since then.

All around great game. Buy a couple copies for you and your buddies for a couple of hours of fun. It's cheap so you get what you pay for. With a player base this game could go places.

====Overall===== In my opinion, this game has massive potential. The art design, the classes, the team-oriented gamemodes, a lot of this is promising. Just be aware that there are little to no people playing the game as it just came out. Give it some time. I will change this to Not Recommend if within a few weeks it doesn't pick up players. =====Pros===== -Helpful tutorial that teaches you the rundown of the game: that's always a useful thing to have in a game. Nice. -Couple of gamemodes to play, and more promised by the developers: Take the Throne, CTF, and a Vs Dragon Slayer, it's good for a game to have more than one gamemode to keep things from going stale -Art design: nice animations, colorful maps and characters; I personally dig the art style -Several classes: Ranging from being an Honor Guard absorbing damage or being a Helper gathering resources, there seems to be a class for every type of player. This can really improve teamwork, and give people different playstyles to choose from -The price: 3/4 bucks in my opinion is WELL worth a game with this much content. =====Cons===== -The Main Menu/UI: Personally, the buttons lacking any animations/reactions bothers me. Makes navigating clunky. I would suggest animated buttons or some more noticeable reactionnoises in the future. I try refreshing the page not knowing if I actually did anything or not. -No controller support: perhaps in the future -Lack of players at the moment -Can't change controls: that's always needed honestly

Take Thy Throne has cute aesthetics and decent gameplay, but has been ruined by the lack of players. There is not a single person playing the game anymore (No, this is not hyperbole) and Take Thy Throne was unfortunately built solely for multiplayer. I have one other friend who bought this game along side me, and it is the most dull experience ever. Fights are very one sided and often rely on whoever got to where first. Due to poor map placement, battles can end in infinite stalemates of players camping in their spawn. I'm sure these issues would be resolved with a bigger player base, but that is definitely not happening any time soon. As of now, do NOT buy this game.

[b]This game has made me realise how enjoyable regicide can be.[/b] Seriously though this game is quite enjoyable. I managed to get a few full 6 player games going with one of the devs joining in. I also noticed not a lot of people are willing to host a game, this makes me quite sad as everyone seemed to be happy to jump into mine :P [olist]Pros: [*]Love the art style, its pretty cute [*]Has some potential to be quite an enjoyable game once more modes are unlocked [*]Dragons! [*]Easy to understand tutorial [*]Jumping on other players causes damage and random situations [*]Archer duels with a double jump are hilarious [/olist] [olist]Cons: [*]Why must everyone lag if 1 person has bad ping? I was expecting a little bit of lag because I did open up the search distance to half-globe to get more players, but some of the time the gameplay was pretty bad for everyone involved despite some locals (Aussies) being in the game and having pings of 60-100 while one person had 400+. [*]Considering the gameplay is quite quick, I think there are too many choices in the shop regarding equipment. I didn't have time to check stats between 3-4 different weapon options [*]The minimap, can we possibly get something a little nicer? [*]Can't change the control options yet (other than the direction keys). I've read that the devs are looking into implementing a change to this soon. [/olist] [list]Suggestions/Questions: [*]I understand more game modes are coming further down the track, but is there a possibility of different maps with the same mode? [*]This one may annoy some people, but for players on a higher level in a mp game, could we possibly get some setbacks so the lower levelled players can catch up? Like less gold/exp per kill once you're over level 5? Or possibly a gold loss when you're killed on a higher level? Also an option to turn this on/off? [*]The guard and knight have special abilities, will you be doing something similar for the helper and archer? [*]I love the dragon slayer mode, but is it possible to access the shop like every 5 dragon kills instead of whenever we die? Is it also possible to get an extra life once we reach a certain amount of kills? [/list]

Fun game with good mechanics and design! The only real problem I have is the lack of players but now that marketing has begun I don't see why that wouldn't resolve itself. Definitely worth the price.

This is a tough one, but I don't know what to make of this game at the moment, and I was really looking forward to playing it... something feels a bit off with the controls, and I guess the feedback isn't really there (in the controls and directions on what to do) For one, i couldn't tell if i was even hurting the dragon, and all those dudes rushing into the room seemed like they were there to help, it was confusing! I know it's a demo, and with some spit and polish, could easily be in the running for "StubbyVania of the Year" (which is my little term for games that use short, fat, pixelated characters... and I'm gonna keep using it until it catches on Dag-Gummit!) I really hope that's the case, because everything shown here in terms of graphics, I'd say is gorgeous! The gameplay just needs to catch up to the visuals. P.S. I can't recommend it yet, but I also can't bear to leave a thumbs down either... UPDATE- Ohno... This actually is the full game (not sure why I thought it was a demo) but I clearly got it cheap, just not cheap enough tp be calling it good. seriously though, if they fixed it with a few tweeks it could be amazing! but its like 7 years old, so i best just give that dream up.

A wonderful game that has potential. Great for people who like 2d sidescrolling platformers and for people that like MOBAs. In my opinion, such a game is unique and offers great potential. It seems that the Devs are trying to get out more content, which is great, but I feel like they should sharpen what they already have first. Suggestions to Devs: -add fullscreen mode to the game asap -nerf the wizard -fish for more players by making the game free for a short time (there are only 5-7 players online at any given time, this number needs to be ten times as many for any sort of online multiplayer playability) A great game, I hope more players can log on so that there can be constant matches going on. That would be really nice.

Currently the only issue I have with the game is the lack of players. Every other issue that is brought up is usually patched and fixed right away. These devs are working hard so give them a chance! Love the game.
