    It's not my favourite genre but there is at least something to Crown Wars: The Black Prince. Being able to tackle missions at my own pace was refreshing, although I was still learning from failure. As tough as battles can be, there's a balance to the units and a definite preferred way of playing with strength in numbers being emphasised. The technical hitches are a problem but regular autosaves does mitigate any lost progress. Unfortunately, the pacing can be hammered by an early grind and a game that is not always the best at explaining its systems.

    The game suffers from a boring story, uninspired voice acting, a forced grind, a mediocre presentation and, above all, lots of bugs and glitches. All ingredients that do not make a good game and that is a shame, because the atmosphere and setting are quite interesting. The management aspect is also fascinating. Indeed, the basis for a good tactical game is definitely there, but the many negative elements get in the way of its potential.

    Crown Wars: The Black Prince fascinates with its historical dark fantasy setting and entertains with its fast-paced and tactically demanding turn-based gameplay. However, a few minor missteps and major technical errors diminish the enjoyment of the game, leaving some of the potential unused.
