Thronebreaker is a single player role-playing game set in the world of The Witcher that combines narrative-driven exploration with unique puzzles and card battle mechanics.
Crafted by the developers responsible for some of the most iconic moments in The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt, the game spins a truly regal tale of Meve, a war-veteran and queen of two Northern Realms — Lyria and Rivia. Facing an imminent Nilfgaardian invasion, Meve is forced to once again enter the warpath and set out on a dark journey of destruction and revenge.

Great atmosphere, top notch voice acting and hand-drawn graphics. Thronebreaker is ~30 hour long campaign with many quests and plot twists around the way. It really captures the essence of the witcher world and the card recruit/RPG aspect based on your decisions is fantastic. You also gain a very substantial amount of rewards in multiplayer Gwent game by unlocking trophies and achievements.
The only problem with the game are the bugs. Some battles lag out hard because of the poorly written AI, and there's some performance issues here and there.
Thronebreaker is a RPG/Strategy game set in the Witcher universe. I didn't expect to play such a deep game, where the choice have consequences and the characters are memorable. The game also offers a lot of hours of play for a relatively cheap price, compared to other games. You also get cards and other rewards in Gwent, that if you haven't you should also try. Cannot reccomend the game enough.
An engaging, exciting and impressive game - the best one I have played in years. Great voice acting and storyline. Decisions made in the game have a real impact and it is sometimes hard to see what the correct choice is. Great value and moderately priced too. Highly recommended.
I bought the game because of witcher world and the multiplayer gwent, but had some doubts, if this combination (card game and RPG) will work and will be adictive as the witcher series. Playing the first view hours was a such a surprise and I could barely stop playing, because everything works for me.
1. Deckbuilding is really like building your army. You need different cards and combinations/decks during the game, some fights are focussed on boost, other on damage (remove opponent cards)
2. You loose comrades, if your decisions are against their character and this will happend, most likely - so you have to rebuild your deck -> for me, because the game is more compact in comparision to witcher 3, the decision feeling more important. And they are really tough if you can dip deep, which is not very difficult for this game.
3. The characters are really well developed and the amount of time for talking is, at least for me, in a greate spot. There are funny and sad moments, everything you need.
4. the graphics are so sweet and the details are really greate. Can't talk about everything, just see some streams or buy the game.
5. easter eggs from the witcher
6. Obviously the story is greate
7. The sound, music and voices and dialects of the characters are the cherry on the cake and make immersion possible and the game a really good experience.
negativ:
- some bugs at the moment, see forums. For me at least nothing game breaking.
Thanks for the greate game, CDPR :-D
Thronebreaker combines classical RPG elements like leveling up your camp and your army (Gwent cards) with Gwent: The Witcher Card Game perfectly. The puzzles are really nicely designed and the game expands upon the lore of the Witcher franchise. Lastly the game also gives the player many choices which will impact the game world.
All in all I can recommend this game to anyone who is up for a round of Gwent and wants to know more about the corageous Warrior-queen Meve and the conflict between the Northern Realms and the Empire of Nilfgaard.
Expect CDPR Quality!
