Gameplay Mechanics
Procedurally Generated Maze: Each time a player enters the dungeon, they encounter a fresh layout, ensuring a unique experience. Unlike open maps, Crown Trick confines you to small dungeon rooms where you must strategically plan your attack against enemies.
Synchronous Turn-Based Strategy: The game uses a unique system where both you and the enemies move simultaneously. This mechanic allows players to take their time to strategize each move, considering how to best use the environment, including traps and elemental interactions, to their advantage.
Elemental Interaction: The game’s environment features various elements like fire, ice, water, and lightning that interact with each other and your skills. Utilizing these elements creatively can lead to powerful combinations, such as setting oil on fire to damage enemies or combining water with electricity for area effects.
Combat and Skills: Players can choose from over 40 active skills, 60 passive abilities, and numerous weapons and relics to customize their combat style. You can also gain new abilities by defeating enemies, which adds depth to the gameplay as you adapt your strategy with each run.
Familiars: Defeating elite monsters grants you the ability to use their skills, known as ‘Familiars’, which can be crucial for overcoming tougher challenges deeper in the dungeon.
