In its current state, Game of Thrones Beyond the Wall isn't a very good game. Much like Fire Emblem Heroes, you'll work through each mission to complete each chapter, and of course, grinding is very much a part of your advancement, so if you don't enjoy repeating content ad nauseum, this is not the game for you. These missions take place on a grid, and it will be up to you to move your team and attack your foes while taking advantage of your team's unique skills. Sure, this is a strategy game, but much like Fire Emblem Heroes, everything hinges on what sort of characters you can collect, and guess what, the best characters are locked behind loot boxes.įor the most part, you'll spend your time working through the story, which is broken up into chapters, which are then broken up into missions. The title is set up similarly to the majority of gacha games on the Play Store. I was never once lost in the fantasy of the game during its battles, though at least the controls never got in the way.Ībove I've uploaded a half-hour's worth of gameplay from Game of Thrones Beyond the Wall, and honestly, I was bored the entire time I was recording, thanks to the lengthy tutorial. Really, the controls work well enough, though there is little weight behind them, so I can't say any of my attacks ever felt visceral. Attacks are performed by double-tapping on the enemy you would like to assault, which cuts down on mistake attacks since you have to commit to a double tap. Just tap on the unit you would like to move, and then tap on the square you would like to move them to. Once you drop into a match, you can move your units easily. Still, the touch controls work well enough, though I have run into a few instances were my taps aren't registered, almost as if the game locks up from time to time.

Of course, controller support is out of the question since the entire game was designed around touch input, which means there's no Android TV support. The controls are intuitive enough, and since this is a strategic RPG, the genre works well on touch screens. It seems to me that the better option would have been for the game to take place during the events of the TV show, you know, so the game's connection to its collectible characters would actually make sense.
Heck, you even get to play as Jon Snow at the beginning of the game, though this particular scene takes place in a Legendary event, which features Heroes from "other timelines," a convenient trick to stuff the game with familiar characters. Game of Thrones Beyond the Wall takes place 48 years before the events of the Game of Thrones TV show, and yet all the art for the game displays images of Daenerys Targaryen and Jon Snow. Since the devs have made it clear that the game is currently in an unfinished state, there may be a few adjustments made to the title before it's officially released, so please take that into consideration when reading this hands-on. I have entered the beta (v0.10.0) through the Play Store's tester sign-up page. I would like to briefly mention that Game of Thrones Beyond the Wall is an early-access title.
