Evaluation
Ascension to the Throne released on April 23, 2014. The only post-launch developer activity on record is a single patch on July 28, 2015 (version 1.128), which added a German translation, reduced installation size, and fixed a video stuttering issue. There have been no developer communications of any kind since that date — no content updates, no roadmaps, no announcements, and no DLC ever listed. The store description describes only the base game with no mention of planned expansions or additional content. This is a self-contained, finished product that has been in a stable, unchanged state since July 28, 2015.

About this game
Ascension to the Throne is a turn-based strategy game with RPG elements. In a vast fantasy world the hero will have to pass many tests on his way to victory. Enemies seek to stop players from regaining power and taking revenge. Gain new friends to aid you in reclaiming the throne. Become the King you were born to be - wise, brave and courageous.
Players will act as the last offspring of the ancient family Illiar, which has ruled Eden for ages. But times have changed and traitorous enemies attacked the castle. They slaughtered the prince's family and destroyed the settlement, but they didn't crush his will. A very powerful spell cast by a magician threw the hero far beyond the borders of the country. He was on his own - without relatives, friends, army and without money. He lost everything he was proud of but still he was alive and chose the path of vengeance.
Players will explore a new fascinating world, full of foes and friends. They will have to crush hordes of enemies and find new followers to regain the title and ascend to the throne.
