Game of Thrones: Kingsroad

Game of Thrones: Kingsroad does a good job of recreating the world beloved by many, and letting us live in it. But the microtransactions really make it feel like Netmarble doesn’t respect the players' time.

Game of Thrones: Kingsroad is an unexpectedly engaging role-playing game that lets you create your own legacy. Considering the low price, it's hard to complain about the mediocre animations and limited customization features.

Game of Thrones: Kingsroad is a promising free-to-play open-world action RPG that still needs more work before its potential is fully realized. The game has a fun and satisfying combat system and an interesting story, but Game of Thrones: Kingsroad's monetization practices and progression-slowing Momentum walls hold back what could be one of 2025's hidden gems.

Game of Thrones: Kingsroad’s impressively recreated world is hampered by an overly grindy, pay-to-win live service model, and both its combat and homestead management are too tedious to keep things interesting on their own.

Game of Thrones Kingsroad feels like it was made with smartphones in mind in the most obvious ways, from its monetisation to its UI and even its button mashing gameplay. Aside from getting to see some landmarks from the HBO show, there is little to enjoy here.
