“I enjoyed it. An average campaign for me ran around 13 hours. The variety of abilities and characters is well thought out and adds to the replayability. On the other hand the maps are mostly going to be the same thing over and over. I do…”Recommended · Steam review · Aug 2025 · 59 h played · Report / request removal

“I'm really mixed on Astral Throne. I really wanted to like this more. I don't think I'd outright recommend it, but I wouldn't warn others to stay away either.

“Really fun Fire Emblem-like roguelite. It can use some balance updates, but it's still great in it's current state. Now, I do recommend this game, but it's not nearly as replayable compared to other roguelites. I'm not saying that you can…”Recommended · Steam review · Aug 2025 · 58 h played · Report / request removal

“Very enjoyable game. The smaller story runs do make it more less daunting.
