What Makes Thronefall – A Little Kingdom Stand Out
[TRY BEFORE YOU BUY!] Thronefall – a critically acclaimed and award winning PC game is coming to AppStore! Metacritics: 92%. Steam: Overwhelmingly Positive, 96%.
Saddle the horses! See your kingdom come to life, fight gripping battles to defend it and still be done in time for lunch.
With Thronefall we tried to strip a classic strategy game from all unnecessary complexity, combining it with a healthy amount of hack and slay. Build up your base during the day, defend it til your last breath at night.
Will you be able to strike the right balance between economy and defense? Do you need more archers, thicker walls or an additional mill? Will you keep the enemies at bay with your longbow or charge your horse right into them? It's going to be a tough night, but nothing beats seeing the sun rise above your little kingdom to live another day.
This Adventure game offers engaging gameplay and regular updates for mobile players.

Player Experience Highlights
Community Insight:
Im not too old so our parents arent exactly gonna let us buy a mobile game but if you see this and you have ten bucks to spare probably a good idea the first level at least was super fun.
The game is fun and great, we love the mutations system challenging but fun. We love it is offline so we can play without internet. The graphics are great and there is so much content to play. We think the free trial idea is good. It was definitely worth our money.
We have completed Durststein twice, but we cant proceed.
This game is sort of a dream come true of a game and is fully worth the price. It has a massive amount of potential for future updates.
Its amazing, and definitely worth the price. Any one who gave it a low rating, has an IQ equal to the star rating in number, that they left.
Game is great and we love how you have to think of ways to defeat your enemies. We think it could be fun if you add a creative mode which allows you to make your own levels. You could also share the levels with your friends and try to beat each others levels! Overall GREAT GAME.
We were going to buy the game but theres a bug that doesnt let us so we guess thats a pretty good sign that we like the game.
Own it on steam, genuinely one of the most addictive and fun games Ive played. Well developed, zero bugs and gameplay is very fun. Really hope they can bring out some more content in the future.
A near perfect creation, and Im guessing translation to iOS. Theres one bug we found thats been nagging at our enjoyment of one weapon in particular: the potion. The AOE green circle tends to disappear and never show up again on hits after using the ability. We love troop spam so that final touch of satisfaction would be the icing on the cake for our strategy. Thank you.
We played the demo of it, and gotta say, its pretty good. It has good graphics, simple design, and a versatile gameplay structure. The gameplay is mostly a regular tower defense game, except for its player combat which does add a bit to it, also including the interesting mechanics of certain enemies. It is a bit disappointing that the only permanent improvements seem to be from getting perks from, whats described as a level system. Its a repeated tower defense that has more emphasis on the upgrades than tower placement which is kind of gross in our opinion. Finally, Ill conclude with saying that its a nice game, but it isnt worth 8 or 12 dollars with such little general difference between other tower defenses.
Honestly we really like this game and the aspect of this, we wish we had one more free trail level because its pretty good, we hope they add like more levels and stuff though because we do plan on buying the whole game and hopefully it has a bunch of new content.
We are super addicted to this game. It is very fun. We beat it and we love doing the eternal trials but when we're at work on break we will go through waves but will sometimes not fully complete a level and have to go back to work, or come back from taking care of our kids and the game will say defeat even though we never started the wave. We'll work so hard on those trials too. We hope they do something about that but other than that the game is amazing.
We bought this game on our phone when we were on a trip but we also have an iPad and we purchased it on our phone BUT when we got home and downloaded it on our iPad we have to buy it again and this is frustrating cus Im getting a new phone but dont want to have to pay TWICE.
Once you pass level 3 it becomes unbeatable. The difficulty literally increases significantly. Other than that its a great game.
We cant believe someone would make something like this. We mean, this is obviously far too entertaining to be healthy. Its everything you ever want in a game, people dont need this kind of all-rounder! If you have ever wanted a game with lots of strategy and many diverse options but at the same time sufficient wiggle room so that you dont have to worry too much about what you spend your money on, along with plenty of discovery and exploration, and also building and lots of satisfying effects, do not download this game, because you will get addicted. It also doesnt seem to have ads (Im about an hour in ad-free) because of the paid edition being an option, which has what looks like a lot of content, and there is always the option to upgrade to it. This is facilitation, plain and simple. And dont be fooled by the perfectly-sized levels, just because you HAVE a good stopping place doesnt mean you are going to use it. Just like a binge-worthy TV show, another source of addiction.
This game is a masterpiece in terms of high-quality graphics, friendly yet challenging gameplay, and creativity-promoting strategies. It is seriously cheap for just $10, considering the existence of those desperate, low-quality knockoffs of the game out there. We really hope there will be many more levels and modes to Thronefall in future updates.
This game had us addicted, not only is it challenging, its also fun! Although once you get the hang of things it is easy.
Its a great strategy game and Ive seen so many people play it, and we really wanted to try it when we saw it on the App Store. And overall, best strategy game Ive every played, but pls make the free version longer.
We like the game And we like carrots Yay.
Its a fun game but us personally wouldnt pay for it on ios.
It is fun but costs a lot although is worth the 12$.
Its good but putting it on mobile just to have people buy it is bull we cant even purchase it because our parents dont allow it.
- We know theres the Endless trials however, we would love to play other maps for the "Endless" in the Bonus modes area instead of just the final level map in the campaign. 2. Please allow us to demolish buildings. 3. Would love to see a UI where you can see the upgrade history for each tower as sometimes its hard to remember and distinguish from just the tower model. The same goes for the townhall as well as research facilities. Amazing game, and well worth the money for the full game.
Firstly this game is worth it and amazing we are just writing this review because every time we open it it makes us play the tutorial even though we already bought it. Its been getting really irritating and we cant find a solution for it.
We really love the game. The only thing that we dont like is that after the primary attack is used the effect usually stops displaying on subsequent attacks, and on the passive too.
We took screenshots and can confirm the lag with getting a new weapon (on the iPhone 15 Pro Max there is no way to close the window with getting a weapon), when you restart the game, the level is considered not completed and as a result we can not advance after level 5, although we paid money for the game. The game itself is 5 out of 5, but this lag makes us feel sad, we hope for a fix.
In eternal trials you cannot see what the loadout (green perk) say at all because they fall out of screen.
Its just we wish that it told you more directly that it is a paid game with a free trial rather than a seemingly free game.
The game is very great quality and it actually does what other games dont but we find that the 12 dollars annoying because there are not 12 levels..unless you include the bonus level but we love how you can command units thats our favorite part BUT its very are to split different kinds so f units because if you have fast enemies coming from one area and strong enemies from the other way then we want to put our spearman and knight in two different areas so its hard to do so.so can you add when you press the archers button twice it shows you the different units that you have same for infantry. Thanks from a happy fan :).
The game is so good but we cant pay to play it.
Amazing minimalist game, very fun and responsive 11/10.
Seeing all those stupid king shot ads were killing us lol we know those games are absolute IAP scams! This game is amazing and this is what gaming should be. 1 purchase and you have all the fun :) Dont buy free games with IAPs its really not worth it dont support those things.
This game is what Kingshot wishes it was. Unbelievably fun and simple, no weird stuff, just fast and fun gameplay. The fact there is a demo should show you these devs believe in the product they have made.
We love risk. This is the ultimate battle takeover game. You also have to defend and get to battle as the leader of your kingdom. If you try the free version youll get hooked like us and pay the $12.99 that is 100% worth it. Did not expect this to be our favorite mobile ever, but it is. And we play a lot of mobile games and pc games.
This is the first game Ive ever left a review on. We love this game and briefly remember seeing the creator post about it awhile back. Im so pleasantly surprised at how engaging it is. We cant wait to see how it expands if the creator decides to. Such fun! Inspiring for game makers too.
Most people will complain about the cost to buy the whole game, but it has no ads, no additional micro transactions other than purchase, and has tons of replay ability. Its very easy to understand, but theres so many little things you can adjust to lead you to victory. Must buy game.
Absolutely adore this game. It really shines for shorter play sessions. Since we dont bring our Steam Deck everywhere, Im very excited to have this one on our phone.
We love this game and have the full version on steam, we just wish there was a way for us to connect the purchases.
We own this already on Steam and its a simple to play but very challenging game. If you hate seeing those terrible Kingshot ads, this is the actually good game they were stealing from! The first non-tutorial level is free, the rest youll have to pay for, which is more than your average mobile game, but its well worth the price for the amount of content youre getting, especially with the whole mutator mechanic allowing you to try for higher scores as long as you still enjoy actually playing it.
Hello Grizzly Games team! First of all, we just want to say that Thronefall is a beautiful and enjoyable game. The clean design, gameplay style, and peaceful atmosphere really impressed us. We recently bought the full version on mobile after the discount, and Im very happy with it! We do have two small requests that we hope you will consider in the future: 1. Please add Arabic language support many players from the Arab world love the game and would appreciate playing it in their native language. 2. It would be awesome if we could customize the heros appearance maybe different armor styles or colors. This would make the game feel even more personal and immersive. Thank you again for your great work, and Im excited to see what updates come next! With love from Saudi Arabia A happy mobile player.
Great strategy game. Love the variety of the enemies and the map designs keep it fresh.
Fun game! We wish more games were like this on the App Store as it is a true game and not some idle nonsense.
This is by far the best mobile game we have ever played.
Ever since we downloaded this game we havent taken our eyes of our phone! Its that fun.
Love the replay-ability, the weapon and ability choices. Super fun and addicting! Our only complaint would be the weapon timer covers up the health bar. And some UI elements are not accessible via controller. Still fully worth 5 stars.
The trial levels give you a good taste of the game ,but the full game is so much. Its great.
Own this game on steam as well. Im not sure if the iOS version has any new features. We imagine they are 1:1 between Steam and iOS. We want to support the developers because and appreciate having a full game experience without micro transactions. The developers did a great job with this game.
The game itself is good, but the UI is terrible. The icons are so small and there are dozens of them and you have to tap them to see what they do. Not to mention the tiny text and the weird fonts.
Very nice game, but we have problem in Sturmclamm (6th location) when we win the game – we see big picture with new power (ability) for our hero, and we dont have a possibility to claim this, because button ok stay outside our screen. IPhone 13 Pro.
Devs please dont charge money if you want people to like your game more let them play three levels instead of two.
