Our take on The Amber Throne
The emphasis on atmosphere and a focused 12–15-hour story leaves less room for a sprawling campaign. Combat also asks players to study enemy stances and skill effects, rather than relying only on quick attacks.
What is The Amber Throne?
Play as Arra, who awakens in a coffin with her father's final command: destroy the Amber Throne.
Her journey crosses a desert world toward a castle suspended in the sky. Turn-based battles center on monsters that change stances in response to combat actions, so players must learn their behavior and how party skills affect them. The party has five members with distinct skills and advantages; most have hybrid roles. Light exploration, optional content, crafting, painted environments, and varied settings accompany the story. The game describes its story as lasting 12–15 hours, with optional exploration and content. Its stated emphasis is on atmosphere and mood alongside traditional JRPG-style battles.
