Just King (2023)

Just King (2023) is a captivating action auto-battler that thrusts players into the role of a king tasked with restoring order to a fractured realm. Command a party of four heroes, chosen from a diverse roster of 33 unique characters, each with distinct playstyles and synergistic abilities. Strategic positioning is key as your heroes autonomously battle hordes of enemies, culminating in epic boss fights against the regents of each zone. Loot acquisition fuels hero upgrades and the acquisition of legendary equipment, ensuring your party remains adequately equipped to face increasingly challenging foes. Replayable zones, each with unique mechanics and enemies, alongside an endless mode with scaling difficulty, guarantee significant playtime. Just King's inclusion in IndieArk's "Best Games" list is well-deserved. The game masterfully blends auto-battler mechanics with strategic depth, demanding careful party composition and tactical positioning. The engaging storyline, punctuated by humorous role-playing elements and Enzo the disastrous bard, adds a lighthearted touch to the challenging gameplay. Coupled with a superb soundtrack by Tad (and the comedic counterpoint from Enzo), the game offers a compelling blend of strategic combat, replayability, and charming narrative elements, solidifying its position amongst IndieArk's top titles.
