Ascension to the Throne is a turn-based strategy game with RPG elements. In a vast fantasy world the hero will have to pass many tests on his way to victory. Enemies seek to stop players from regaining power and taking revenge. Gain new friends to aid you in reclaiming the throne. Become the King you were born to be - wise, brave and courageous.
Players will act as the last offspring of the ancient family Illiar, which has ruled Eden for ages. But times have changed and traitorous enemies attacked the castle. They slaughtered the prince's family and destroyed the settlement, but they didn't crush his will. A very powerful spell cast by a magician threw the hero far beyond the borders of the country. He was on his own - without relatives, friends, army and without money. He lost everything he was proud of but still he was alive and chose the path of vengeance.
Players will explore a new fascinating world, full of foes and friends. They will have to crush hordes of enemies and find new followers to regain the title and ascend to the throne.
Open ended non-linear gameplay
Combination of real-time movement around the game world and turn-based battles
Large-scale tactical battles. Up to 22 squads (up to 16 units in each)
Players are not bounded by separate missions. They can go to any part of the game world and explore it. The game world is integral and players are free to choose any direction
Original concept. The Hero is the player, and instead of giving orders and watching the battles from a safe place, he participates in them by himself. But remember, that you can easily loose your Hero in the heat of a battle
Such a fun little game for what, less than a dollar when it's on sale? A no brainer! A game that is fun, isn't a cakewalk, takes tactics in the battle to adjust your army based on if you got beaten up the last battle. You can focus your leader into a melee leader or magic (magic is 1000% stronger), and roam the land looking for enemies who stand in your way.
I like the general idea behind this game. The game itself however, a bit lacking. The fight sometimes just plain annoying with the enemies just instakilling some of your most valuable men. Moving in thight places will glitch you everywhere. I just walked in the first city through the wall accidently, way before I supposed to be there. I also miss the opportunity to level up at least my named companions, instead of just letting them die as soon as I go a bit higher level area. It also would be nice to sell my old stuff when I buy something new. The level difference between the second and third part of the map, as you go through kind of in a linear fashion, is insane. You cannot play this without saving all the time, because there is no way to know anything about the enemies more then their names, so you must go into every fight in order to learn whos who, then reload. This could have been a very nice game, and it stil worth a try since it's at least cheap.
Look up a walkthrough before you start, or your first hour playing will be very frustrating. There are fights that have to occur in a specific order for you to get strong enough to survive.
Your troops move in groups, and never move quite where you want them to.
Enemy troops can just run right through your lines to attack a weak hero, so keeping them back doesn't work.
I played about two hours and got bored with it.
pretty decent single player , turn based MMO . only issues are the lagg for some reason at the last country , and the waroing around that happens from time to time , your heading some place and poof your in a completely different one and not close either LOL.
