Justin Clark: "But like most games where the focus is moving players toward ever-bigger and ever-better caches of loot, the narrative of Dragon's Crown ends up as the victim, which is disappointing given how well Vanillaware's previous efforts delivered on that front. The game's overarching tale tells a story about the titular crown, with a B plot about a count attempting to usurp the throne from a saintly princess, and her Tudor-like father, but it's all very slight and never sticks to the mind. Which is to say that this game would still be hard to fall in love with if it didn't absolutely assault the laws of human physics."
GameCrate: "While beat ‘em ups don’t sit atop a throne like they once did, the genre has experienced a renaissance the past few years. Maybe you’ve found your love of the brawler rekindled, or perhaps you’re a newer fan who wants to pummel more fools after playing Streets of Rage 4. Whatever the case may be, here are 10 new school beat ‘em ups worth playing."
Surprised Mother Russia Bleeds didn't make their list. Great game in my opinion.
Great art design. Not all that great for gameplay. Baseline experience for a beat em up.
Love streets of rage 4. I’d even love some DLC for the game or even another installment down the road. Maybe sense SEGA seen the success of Streets of Rage 4 that they may make it into a Triple AAA gaming beat em up title. Similar to the beat’em up favorite of mine back on PS2 called Bouncer. That game was amazing.
The sorceress is likely the best-known among the playable characters of Vanillaware's Dragon's Crown, and she's getting a new figure.

I disagree with the score. 5 represents broken, and this game isn't broken at all.
"impact of the game's backdrops can dull the unnerving look of these character designs, which are demeaning to human evolution when they're not being demeaning to women."
Oh my god get over yourself. It's a video game with some wacky looking characters. It's not 2013 anymore, we all got over this and dismissed it as nonsense.
Demeaning to human evolution? It's a game about orcs. Tone down the self importance, you're not writing for Huffington Post.
Thanks for your input, Justin *pats on head*
Can we please book Justin on some more journalism courses? He keep digging up the same old rubbish...
Oh please! I'm a woman and I enjoy it! It's possible the men who created it have never touched any real boobs, but it's still a fun game! Let's remeber it's a game and not meant to be real
