King Lucas - Developed by DevilishGames
0The Verdict on OpNoobs.com:
King Lucas is a straight-forward, fun platformer that brings a lot of old-school fun with it. The option of single or multiplayer gameplay is a huge boon, and I love that the individually-designed castle rooms are always in different combinations – something that lends well to replay value. With full controller support, Steam trading cards and achievements, there’s a lot going on here; you can even enable subtitles in both the English and Spanish. The price point is a little high, considering that multiplayer is basically non-existent unless you happen to have a friend who owns the game already on your friends' list. Changes to the system, plus stability improvements, could fix that in the future, but currently, I recommend looking at King Lucas as mostly a single-player adventure.
This title is fairly easy, especially if you’re patient with your attacks. Coins and loot, in general, is fairly abundant, and most of the time I was able to dispatch foes with only a few swings of my sword or ax. But that makes for low-key, quaint play sessions great for casual gamers, or for a younger player in the household. And while there is nothing revolutionary here, not to mention that the developers are still working on numerous bugs especially in multiplayer, I still definitely enjoyed my trek into the land of castles and lost princesses, and I look forward to visiting King Lucas again soon.
