1) Signature Vanillaware Gameplay and Style
Reasons Not to Let Dragon’s Crown Pro Pass You By
Dragon’s Crown Pro is built from tried-and-true methods handed down from game after game generation: the beat-’em-up, but it also has Vanillaware’s signature style to lean on here. It’s your goal to reach point B from point A, moving left to right as needed. As monstrosities and other unsavory individuals jump out in your way, you tear into them, leaving behind a trail of bloodied enemy carcasses in your wake. Mechanically speaking, it’s kid’s stuff.
Fortunately, Vanillaware ups the ante by altering the landscape of typically interchangeable character classes and imparting elements it has incorporated in some of its previous games, such as Odin Sphere. Rather than relegating players to samey warriors and plodding barbarians and the like, the game offers a plethora of avatars, each with their own unique play style, and they’re a dream to play as. The game boasts an impressive range of abilities for each class. Not only do they feel great to execute, but they’re also visually arresting.
As soon as you boot the game up, you know you’re in for something good, and it shows. There’s a certain level of polish that gamers have come to expect from Vanillaware’s cadre of titles, and you certainly get it in droves here with Dragon’s Crown Pro.
