Great for the summer as a nice couch co-op run for up to 4 players. If you reminiscence about those old-school side-scrollers like Golden Axe, TMNT, Streets of Rage, Double Dragon etc then this is the game you're looking for. Sure there are great side-scrollers on Xbox Live Arcade and Playstation Network (Castle Crashers, Scott Pilgrim vs the World, Phantom Breaker) but this game gives you a closer feel towards a modern Golden Axe. There are a few things potential buyers should understand before getting this game. First off which might be the biggest gripe for people and their friends who buy this and expect to go home and play together is that you need to unlock online multiplayer. Its unlocked by the 9th level I think and it'll take a good 5 hours+, so expect to play alone that first night. Local co-op or couch co-op doesn't suffer from this, so they can join right away in the beginning tutorial level. The tutorial level is only for Player 1 so those who are using different classes might not know their entire basic moveset. Also if you decide to start fresh as a new character you need to complete the basic 9 levels again before unlocking online mode. The good thing is that your loot or bag is shared among all your characters. Once unlocked you can basically join random games or random players join you, or you play with a friend. Problem with random players is that there's no voice chat, with friends you can send private chats and play. Meaning they might not be paying attention and holding a key that's detrimental to the level while doing nothing or they could be purposely doing it. For a game that leads people to believe its more multiplayer than single player it's kinda eccentric. It's actually really tedious when doing a 4 player couch co-op run because each individual player has to accept their own quests, visit shops, utilize their skill points and ready their equips. For example, player 1 takes full control of the screen to handle his/her business then player 2 has to take control and so forth. It gets very tedious because after every level, each player wants to go add their skill points and change their gear which takes time so basically every player needs to take a turn doing things. They should have made a better interface where the screen is shared amongst all players. Also the loot is more oriented towards the first player. During the gameplay when you're traversing through each level and each player is doing his/her own thing, it gets extremely hard to see where and what you're doing. You tend to get lost in the battle especially if a Wizard casts a flame spell that engulfs the whole screen. It's a minor problem to me but it does affect a few players out there who can't stand having their screen blocked, and trust me wizards/sorceresses have quite the flashy moves that take up the whole screen. By the time you see yourself after the spell is over you could be dead haha. Speaking of death in the game, you start out with 2 lives and you can pay money to increase it, if you or your pals die within the game you can continue easily by pressing X and paying a small fee, I think 650? So luckily there are no game overs unless you're broke. That's probably all the major downsides to this game that I can think of. Besides those small problems its great game. It's by Vanillaware and they make some great looking games, Muramasa the Demon Blade on the VITA is stunningly gorgeous. Each character plays differently, except for the wizard and sorceress, they both have the same weapon attacks but different spells. The desertcart is just a crazy berserker with low defense that's usually jumping everywhere smashing things. Warrior is your basic all around guy that has a shield and can defend. Dwarf is the little tank guy that has great def when he goes into immovable mode, holds hammers and can throw enemies. Elf is really fun, arrows are limited though so sometimes you can't always rely on using your bow too much. Wizard and sorceress are really fun with their wide array of magic spells, however their basic magic attacks are the same, just depends on what type of stave they are holding and what element it is. Both have different spells whereas the Wizard is more offensive and the Sorceress is suppose to be a support type. That doesn't mean she doesn't have any offensive magic, the sorceress can summon a giant boulder, a blizzard, or a thundercloud, then she has some fun spells like petrify and curse which turn enemies into frogs. In the beginning each level is about 10 min more or less and after you beat it, a quest opens up which makes you basically repeat the level. Gets monotonous at first but you'll realize you actually need it to level up your character. At the end of every level is a boss fight and there are some amazing boss fights. There's not enough epic boss fights these days but this game delivers. Other than what I've mentioned I don't wanna spoil any information so we'll leave this review as is. Overall its a great action-rpg side-scroller, definitely recommend. I just wanted to point out several things all potential buyers should know before they get this game. I didn't expect to have to go through over 5 hours trying to unlock online co-op. One last note, this game makes me think of a 2D Gauntlet Legends side-scroller lol. Review: Controversy aside... - People knew of the game for years, as it's been talked about and in production for a long time. In fact, it was one of the main reasons why I purchased my PS3. I personally found it kind of funny that at the last minute a select few people decided to throw their hands up in the air and get upset about the game's art direction. I could go on and on about all of that, but i'll save that for a different time. What I will say though is that once you understand why the character design is the way it is, you can appreciate it all the more. If you would be so kind, let me speak of the art for a bit because to me that was the game's main draw; It's a tongue in cheek jab at the character designs of most other games in the genre, but it does it in such a way where it's just absolutely beautiful and stunning in and of itself, both the male and female characters. They could have just as easily gone "Boobs are boobs, and muscles are muscles" and left it at that, but the characters feel as if they were designed with care while simultaneously being exaggerated (see Dwarf and Sorceress). They have depth and quality that I have not seen in character design in a long time. Yes, the sorceress has giant boobs, but the rest of her is beautifully done as well, and i don't think there should be any shame in showcasing a buxom woman in a videogame, especially if she's a great asset to the team. And then you have the dwarf who is just a mini hulk ball of muscle that's fun to rampage with. It just makes you feel awesome. The animations are amazing too. They are fluid and natural given the context of the game, but that's not all! Even if you can't get past the character design, you can at least take a step back and appreciate the sheer amount of effort and love that went into the rest of the game's art, from the enemies to the backgrounds. I made it a point to preorder the game to get the art book, but I strongly suggest you find one on your own if you can if you appreciate the art much like I did. Looks aren't everything though. HOW DOES THE GAME PLAY!?! Well, the gameplay was pretty solid. The characters never felt too gimped or too overpowered until later on in the game when you have a lot of points to put in your skills, and at that point it just feels like a solid action game. However it is what you expect from this genre of game; it may get a bit repetitive towards the end, but that's just the nature of these kinds of games, especially with the amount of effort and design that went into it. You can't exactly fault the game for that, but I will say that i'm not the biggest fan of repetitiveness yet this game grab a hold of me through several playthroughs, and I had a lot of fun with each one. The music was great too, and the story, while could be seen as weak if it were any other game, was actually quite fleshed out for a beat'em up game. Me personally, given the game and the genre, I would give it a solid 5/5 stars. It was exactly what I expected it to be, and more, and it did what it did very well. If you're a fan of well done art and beat'em ups in a fantasy setting, this is a must have. Oh, and one final note! Be sure to download the voices for the game as well. I love the narrator but it turns out that each character has their own narration of the game as well, which gave an extra bit of flavor to the subsequent playthroughs. Hearing them do their own version of the man in the forest was quite entertaining to me, and it might be for you as well. ## Features - Dragon's Crown is a multiplayer action RPG with breathtaking visual style, a design built around cooperative play and epic boss fights, and the ability to discover a new adventure in every play session. - A nearly endless cooperative online action RPG: Dragon's Crown allows up to four players to team up online to clear out monster-ridden dungeons, discover precious treasure, and destroy awe-inspiring bosses. - Stunning HD visual design from the makers of Odin Sphere: Unparalleled in their unique style, developer Vanillaware painstakingly hand-paints every detail, be it a blade of grass or the scales on the game's impressive dragons. ## Images ![Dragon's Crown - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71YmeOucDML.jpg) ![Dragon's Crown - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51GPvxPML4L.jpg) ![Dragon's Crown - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51G5rTDRmOL.jpg) ![Dragon's Crown - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51ciB-ZEpHL.jpg) ![Dragon's Crown - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51EgTV93AeL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Some important details for potential players. *by I***N on August 9, 2013* Let me get to the point, this game is a pure classic.

Players choose one of six character classes like a Fighter or Sorceress and are sent out to explore dungeons, fight monsters, and collect treasure. Treasure collected in dungeons takes on the form of new weapons and armor that can improve a character's stats and even change how they attack. After collecting experience gained by slaying monsters, players can level up their skills, giving them increases to things like attack and magic. They're also granted Skill Points, that can be spent on training to learn new or improve existing skills, like new magic spells, charging attacks, or even making acquired money restore amounts of health. The game features 10 different dungeons, each with branching paths and a unique boss at the end of each stage. Drop-in/drop-out co-op is available for local players, allowing you and up to three friends to go questing together, as well as an online matchmaking mode. While sometimes the screen can get cluttered and some players might find themselves lost amidst the chaos (especially with spell-casters), the choice of hand-drawn backgrounds and character models to shape the world of Dragon's Crown helps bring the game to life. Everything is exceptionally detailed, with fluid animations and vibrant, eye-catching colors, along with a truly stellar soundtrack. Overall, Dragon's Crown is a true beauty. With fluid combat, exciting boss battles, and a gorgeous choice of aesthetics, Dragon's Crown is a game that deserves to be played, and is almost a steal at its price.
