It’s a bit of a shame, as there is a lot of potential for worldbuilding here, with the fantastic evocative designs for both the dragons and their riders. There’s no story present here, which makes sense given that this is essentially a game that is all about fast-paced online matches instead of wanting to immerse you in an epic narrative. It’s a winning concept: fighting PVP battles from the back of a firebreating dragon, but can it deliver on its premise? The subject of today’s review, Century: Age of Ashes, from developer Playwing Bordeaux, is a free-to-play title as well, though as you’ll find out, this might be one of the “good” free-to-play titles. There are exceptions of course, and in the gaming world of today, it’s the less predatory games that survive the longest -just look at Fortnite, for example.

For the most part, this is deservedly so, as there is an ever-growing plethora of free-to-play titles determined to suck the wallets of their unsuspecting player base dry. We imagine that the term ‘free-to-play’ leaves a foul taste in the mouth of most gamers.
