Dragon's Crown Artworks

    In the last days, after some weeks on Borderlands 2 (which I founded quite boring, to be honest, and much similar to its predecessor), I'm back to Dragon's Crown on PSVita. The more I play this game, the more I think it's a small masterpiece in the games scene of the last few years. My Fighter finally hit lvl 99, and now I'm climbing the new, almost-infinite, random dungeon added with the last patch. And it's hard!

    I'm thinking about buying this game for PS3, too, in its digital version, in order to have it always installed on the consolle and ready to be played with up to 3 more pals on the same room. This game is somehow similar to Diablo 3 in concept
(action rpg based on farming and gathering equipme
nt). After playing back on both, even if I really enjoy some Diablo 3 run, I ended liking the Dragon's Crown approach more: it's less technical, more simple, each stage take fewer time to be cleared and it's "old school" style really capture me.

    Here follow most of the beautiful artworks you can find in the game. Some of them are secret, and must be unlocked by completing some part of the game, so this is somehow a minor spoiler. Enjoy the beautiful gallery of these 57 arts by clicking on any of the following pictures:

Dragon's Crown!


    Dragon's Crown is finally out for Europe, too! Guys, it exudes style from everywhere! Musics and graphics are awesome, as is the gameplay, even if the latter becomes a bit confusing when you have one (or more!) Wizard or Sorcerer in your party :) . The RPG components are a great extra: the possibility to develope your character and the huge amount of loot you collect after each mission both add longevity and depth to the gaming experience.

    I'm just at the beginning, so I still can't play multiplayer, but I'm very curious about it. My first choice have been the Fighter, and he kicks asses quite hard, but I think I'll start a Wizard right after completing the first gamethrough!

   The Art Book I bought the game with (bundle for a honest total of €36,29) is full of beautiful draws which illustrate all charaters (with pose list) and locations.


The Kings of Dragons (1991)
    Guys, this game make me feel so nostalgic about my youth, when I played the legendary Golden Axe, The Kings of Dragons, Knights of the Round and Dungeons & Dragons: Tower of Doom as coin-ops to the local bar, often with a friend smashing buttons on the "2P" location.

    Now sorry, but I have a kingdom to save and a more powerful sword to drop :D !
