    Overall, Crown Trick is a thoroughly pleasant entry to the ever-increasing vaults of roguelike games. The tactical element of its turn-based gameplay really makes it stand out as offering something a little different, and the abundant variety in its systems and mechanics makes for an enjoyably replayable little game.

    Crown Trick is a cute dungeon crawler with a great sense of humour, lovely animation and plenty to discover to keep you coming back to take on the chaos.

    With an enchanting art style Crown Trick is a delight to play, yet is challenging and frustrating before you master its combat system.

    Crown Trick is a stylish and strategic roguelite that slows the usually frenetic pace of its genre down and introduces some rhythmic turn-based battling to proceedings. Elle's ability to blink around arenas, combined with the plethora of powers she gains from the many weapons, relics and familiars she encounters along the way, also adds plenty of variety and flexibility to the runs you'll make here. There are some UI niggles that need addressing, the inherently random nature of the core gameplay can plague proceedings now and again and busy battles can become hard to read at times but, overall, this one's a very solid effort that fans of roguelites should definitely check out.

    Instead of following the crowded path of roguelikes, Crown Trick finds its own with a more peaceful approach, with turn-based battles and dungeon crawler traits.

    If you enjoy Mystery Dungeon games as much as I do then you'll absolutely love everything that Crown Trick has to offer.

    Crown Trick is slow to start and can’t always get out of its own way, but patience is rewarded by a brain-twisting action RPG with a killer look.
