Evaluation

Crypt – The Black Tower is a free-to-play RPG that launched in early access on March 9, 2018 and reached its full 1.0 release on July 20, 2018. At that point the developer shipped the game's planned DLC expansion, The Black Tower, as a free bonus bundled into the 1.0 build — effectively delivering all planned content at launch rather than selling it separately. The July 20, 2018 full-release post mentioned aspirations for future survival mode expansions and 4-player online multiplayer, but these were framed as hopes rather than committed announcements. Crucially, no follow-up posts, roadmaps, or DLC listings have materialized since that date. All developer communication stopped after July 20, 2018 — nearly eight years ago as of today. The store description similarly frames potential multiplayer as a vague future possibility ("We may expand it in the future"), not a firm commitment. With no unreleased DLC on the store, no developer posts since the 1.0 launch, and the stated planned content (The Black Tower expansion) having shipped with the full release, the game is best understood as a complete, self-contained product that has been finished since July 2018.

Evidence

Full 1.0 release launched, bundling the previously planned Black Tower DLC for free as a thank-you to supporters. Developer mentioned future hopes for survival mode expansions and online multiplayer but made no firm commitments. This is the last developer communication on record.

About this game

Crypt is a 3rd person click to move adventure based RPG that takes you deep into the ancient and forgotten places of a long dead world. You live the life of a recently summoned skeleton from a decrepit and clearly insane necromancer. His weak ability’s at magic have left him with you as his only chance at entry back into the mages castle from witch he was expelled not for redemption but for revenge. You are left to find your own way through this insane and dangerous world and your own identity therein. Do you serve the will of your dark master or make your own path as something more. The game takes its largest inspiration from classic RPGs games such as Dark Souls and Diablo 2.

Key Features-

This game is simple to play easy to run and completely free no adds or in game purchases involved it is Endless Void studios first large project and as such we wanted to make it our gift to you . We may expand it in the future to have multiplayer and other options but for now it is in a basic campaign focused mode . That being said its main feature is its massive 5 Act campaign and detailed open world system designed to allow for all of this content to run smoothly on your machine. games are fully savable and old saves will work with new versions of the game but the game allows only one saved file to be stored at a time to give it part of the retro feel we wanted for this title.
