Game of Thrones: Tale of Crows

The game goes nowhere really. It could if some effort was put into it. I played for about a month hoping it would develop into something. Unfortunately it doesn’t. Play it for 1 day and you will have seen everything.

I pray that this game gets the love it deserves and the developers care about it like their own child because the amount of outcomes and possibilities that could be implemented in the future are amazing. If there was anyway to encourage the developers to keep working hard on this game I’d take it in a heartbeat. My only personal request/recommendation is to add some difficulty so that commanding the watch truly is a hardship for the rugged commanders, to bring out your true grit and determination. My recommendation is that they add a tracker for supplies, manpower, and moral/loyalty. Of course it shouldn’t be to hard to maintain, in consideration of those that want an easy experience but their could be a difficulty setting to help remedy that. But to actually have to maintain your resources while also focusing on important tasks at hand would be an extraordinary addition to the game and help put you in the lord commander shoes even better.

You get new events every now and then, but I keep getting “clear forest”, “scout north of the wall” stuff and it does nothing for the story. There seems to be no way to progress to another lord commander, just sitting here for a week irl doing the same quests 400 times. Very boring and uninteresting.

I find myself captivated by the situations which unfold. The music and UI is great, but I wish the game had more dialogue options. Oftentimes the choices felt a bit limited, but for a “free” game I admire the effort and creativity the developers put into this thing. I’d recommend this to others.

Is there a way to make the game text readable?

This is not a accessibility friendly game. The text is very small and there is no way to increase it.

I can only rate this a 1 star because without a magnifying glass I can’t play. The bad part is there is a lot of screen leftover. Why did you make the text so small?

I really enjoy this it just needs more to do.

The game makes you wait something like 5-10 minutes between every decision, of which there’s only 4 types which don’t seem to have any real consequence on the storyline of the game. It looks pretty but what a waste of time building this game, not to mention playing it.

This game has a solid foundation and cool story mechanics, but gets a bit stale once you finish all the storylines. Would love to see this game expanded into an actual full console game where you can create your own Lord Commanders and run a Night’s Watch sim with ranging missions you can join. Anyway, fun game, but little to no replay value.
