The heavily stylized characters have raised some eyebrows with their depictions of overly muscled men and women with oversized chests but with Frazetta's fantasy works as an influence it shouldn't come as a surprise to those that are familiar with them.

Just like Odin Sphere, Dragon's Crown features some light RPG mechanics, but the combat is deep but accessible and satisfying.

However, on a visual level the characters which consist of a knight, an elf, a dwarf, a sorceress, a wizard, and an Amazon look like a combination of famed Conan artist Frank Frazetta's fantasy art and Vanillaware's style. The 2D visual style still features Vanillaware's usual oversized and beautifully drawn characters. Released in 2013, Dragon's Crown is an action RPG inspired by coin-op classics like Dungeons & Dragons: Tower of Doom - a game that Vanillaware's co-founder worked on - and Golden Axe.
