4.5 star review here on Touch Arcade https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/crowntakers/id958530579?mt=8 Sale is this weekend only
I can't recommend this game enough.. Turn based roguelike, heavily strategic combat. Charming as hell also.. It's a bargain at its normal price.. 3 bucks is a steal
I'll second this. I bought Crowntakers about a week after it was released at full price based on forum feedback, and it hasn't left my iPad since. Great game, and a great buy at 3 bucks. It should be called Crownstealers at that price.

It has just as much pick up and play appeal as lighter roguelike fare while offering a bit more to chew on.“ Shaun Musgrave, toucharcade, 4,5/5 stars „Crowntakers is a tough combination of turn based strategy and Roguelike. It's quite satisfying, though.“ Jennifer Allen, 148Apps, 4/5 stars „How many acronyms can you cram into a single game? Crowntakers is a PDL TBS RPG (that is, a procedural death labyrinth role-playing game with turn-based strategy combat) (…) and it’s really good fun if you like games like Final Fantasy Tactics.“ Michelle Star, CNET ≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈ User Ratings ≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈ 5/5 - If you like turn based tactical medieval rpg's get this. Not as much story/length as final fantasy tactics, but frankly on iDevices I consider that a win. Bite sized battles, winnable in a day on easy, challenging on hard, good replay value. Only crashed once on 1st gen mini 5/5 - This is worth your money. You get a polished game, tactical battles, and thoughtful choices in exploration. Also big points for splitting the game into two difficulties. One being sort of roguelike with permadeath and the other much more RPG without permadeath and with consistent leveling. If you're thinking about this one, you'll probably thoroughly enjoy it like I do! 5/5 - This game should get much more hype. I've been playing it non-stop in my free time for over a week. Despite some bugs (which the dev's have been very quick to address), Each game feels quite different with the random locations within areas, random loot and different party builds. It's not easy at first, but learning different strategies as you go is enjoyable. Highly recommend this game! 5/5 - Big fan of this game. The battles are very tactical and the map navigation is really streamlined and fun to explore. This is a good one for any rogue-like fans. It's not super punishing, but it does present a nice challenge on the normal mode (haven't beaten it yet, but I hope a hard mode unlocks after doing so).
