Crown Trick received "generally favourable" reviews from critics, according to review aggregator site Metacritic. Fellow review aggregator OpenCritic assessed that the game received strong approval, being recommended by 89% of critics.

Nintendo Life rated the game 8/10 and stated fans of the roguelike genre should check the game out despite some UI issues that needed addressing. PC Games rated it 8/10 and wrote: "The turn based fights are fair, due to their transparency and calculability. Nevertheless, the lack of proper replayability and endgame as well as the small amount of dialogue dull the experience a little." Pure Xbox also rated the game 8/10, and praised the art style, soundtrack, "complex" gameplay and "addictive loop".
