Table of Tales: The Crooked Crown is a role playing adventure that brings tabletop gaming to life in virtual reality! Also includes a new non-VR mode for players without VR hardware. Join a band of scoundrels in this unique sea-faring tabletop RPG adventure!
The virtual reality experience transports players to a magical table in an attic, where a narrative-driven adventure unfolds. Utilizing intuitive "wand" controls, players guide a party of scoundrels through a captivating story shaped by their critical choices.
The table transforms before the player's eyes, creating vivid diorama-like environments that morph and construct themselves dynamically. A fully-voiced Dungeon Master, a mechanical talking bird named Arbitrix, guides the player through the campaign with charming narration and well-written dialogue.
The branching narrative offers high replayability, as each playthrough can differ significantly based on the player's choices. Reviewers note that no two playthroughs are the same, incentivizing multiple sessions to experience alternative paths and outcomes.
Tactical turn-based combat encounters challenge players to employ strategic thinking. Encounters feature a variety of enemies and utilize a system of dice, cards, and skill checks to resolve actions. Reviewers praise the "twists" in these combat scenarios, which keep the gameplay fresh.
As players progress, they can customize their party of scoundrels by upgrading each character's unique skill and stat paths. This allows players to experiment with different ability combinations on repeat playthroughs.
For players without virtual reality hardware, the experience also includes a non-VR mode with mouse/keyboard or controller-based controls, providing an accessible alternative.
