The love for the source material and attention to the finest of details makes Ascent a natural extension to the Game of Thrones universe. I wasn’t happy with the IAP structure, but remain thankful for the chance to forge my own path through Westeros. [Episode 4, April 2014]

A rich evocation of the wonders of Westeros, marred slightly by an overly light strategy model and significantly by egregious free-to-play elements.

If you can get past that you’ll find an approachable, yet complex, role-playing game that offers a lot do, but never manages to quite break away from the shallowness of the freemium genre.

It's yet another strategy game, and even if it feels sometimes a bit chaotic, it does deserve your attention if you're a fan of the series.

This free-to-play game based on the hit book series and TV show is as dense as they are, but with a lot of menu navigation and wait timers.

Game of Thrones fans will delight in seeing the fantasy world in a new way, but poorly implemented waiting quests bog down players from experiencing all Westeros has to offer.

Game of Thrones Ascent is a nice accompaniment to the show, but even fans may be soured by its reliance on timers and IAPs.
