This game is absolute fire! From the first boss you know how the tone is going to be, unfair, devious, creatures are between you and the throne and there is only one way to the top.
Is incredible how much can be said with just sprites and gameplay! I felt that struggle and the final scene makes it all worth it.
The battles mechanically are impressive I haven't had this much fun with a game in such a long time, it took me back to the classics, tight controls, excellent music and sound effects it all worked together to sell the experience.
If there was more of this I would eat it up in an instant! It makes me imagine and that in itself is enough for me to give it high marks!
