King's Blade

I'm honestly shocked this game doesn't have as much buzz around it; it's partially the reason why I'm writing this more detailed review. To get to the point though, I'd give this game a 9/10. What I liked about the game: The controls feel nice, The art style and direction are both phenomenal and consistent all the way through, all the levels feel like standout levels with their own unique enemies and a boss battle at the end with a total of 10 levels and 2 secret levels, its extremely satisfying to take down a hoard right in front of you when you learn how to chain combos to keep enemies up in the air, and on top of all that its only $9. There isn't too much depth in terms of the attack combos(you aren't getting combos as in depth as you would in Tekken/Street Fighter/Mortal Combat combos), but it's honestly okay. At its core, finishing off hoards of enemies super satisfying. Now what I would criticize about the game: I feel like it's too short for how fun it is. I would genuinely have payed a higher pricepoint for more levels, but at a $9 pricepoint the amount of content is reasonable and the game feels like its meant to be replayed which is what I'll be doing o…

King's Blade is a passionate tribute to the classic fantasy beat 'em up era, delivering a side-scrolling action experience that embraces the spirit of arcade legends while adding enough modern conveniences to remain enjoyable for contemporary players. Developed and published by Alexey Suslin, the game places players in the role of powerful warriors tasked with resisting the expansion of the ruthless Barganian Empire. Its premise is straightforward, but it effectively establishes a world of war, heroism, and sword-and-sorcery adventure that serves as the backdrop for a lengthy campaign filled with combat and exploration. The game's greatest strength lies in its commitment to classic brawler gameplay. Rather than relying on complex progression systems or elaborate storytelling, King's Blade focuses on delivering satisfying action from start to finish. Players can choose from six distinct heroes, each equipped with unique abilities, strengths, and fighting styles. This variety significantly enhances replay value, encouraging players to experiment with different characters and discover which combat approach best suits their preferences. Whether favoring brute strength, speed, or magic…

Great fun. Spicy, even on Easy towards the end. Only played the campaiign with the wizard so far, so now onto the other characters.

Recently, beat ‘em up games have been making a comeback, and King’s Blade is exactly that. Inspired (according to the developers) by the Conan the Barbarian saga, with an intriguing art style and solid music, the game takes me 30 years back to the days when I was trying to squeeze a coin out of my parents to play Cadillacs & Dinosaurs. The game offers 12 campaign levels, a separate arcade mode, four characters (plus two hidden ones), and hours of old-school fun. If you’re into this kind of game, don’t miss out on King’s Blade.
