I was really impressed with King of Dragons the first time I played through, as Fighter https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ygbgYn-Fp7M , but this Cleric play-through left me yawning and dispirited. The game is slightly longer than most beat-em-ups and really started to drag; it maybe about doubles its natural length by using color swaps or "now there are two of them" variations of bosses; the bosses are either complete chumps, or super cheap, and you've basically got two moves: standing bonk or jumping bonk.
It does have nice and very colorful art, but the gameplay is kind of slow and weightless. I wonder if maybe Cleric, the largest character on the character select screen, is slightly slower than Fighter, and that helped tip me over to a more negative reaction. But I don't usually mind slower characters in beat-em-ups anyway, so I dunno if it's anything like that anyway.
