Our take on Royal Frontier
The journey centers on caravan protection and route choices, so its focus leaves less room for the broad exploration and narrative scope found in some RPGs.
What is Royal Frontier?
Royal Frontier is a party-based journey across a dangerous frontier.
Choose heroes to guard a caravan of settlers, then move along a map laid out like a board game. The route includes treacherous terrain, bandits, and ancient monsters. Combat combines turn-based and time-based elements, with attacks, special moves, and items used during encounters. Decisions can benefit or harm the party. Gold earned during a trip can be spent on weapons and equipment, while characters and power-ups can be unlocked for later journeys. The caravan’s progress depends on choosing a road and managing the party through successive dangers.
