I'll give it a shot. This is one of those legacy IPs that was probably better suited to being a mobile game than anything else anyway, short of an in-name-only game.

 

[OnPoint]

Always had a soft spot for the original. I'll check this out

 

[OrionsNebula]

Well it certainly looks more interesting and engaging than Justice Monsters V was, so I'll give it a shot.

 

[Kain-Nosgoth]

Hammering nails into my skin is more interesting and engaging than Justice Monsters V.

Me too. Can't wait until they patch in Shovel's Knight.

 

[Callibretto]

app incompatible with all my device.

 

[Brazil]

Oh, man! This... this is pretty cool!

The jump timing feels a bit off, but the action's really entrancing.

 

[Keym]

Who the hell invited Hope to the party

 

[OnPoint]

First impressions:

The jump timing is weird
The music is great
The load times are atrocious

 

[Baron Von Beans]

I just started FFXV...is this the game they keep talking about playing in game?! I must have this!

 

[Ouroboros]

For anyone thats having the same issue, searching "King's Knight" on iOS app store doesn't hit the app, I had to search for "Wrath of the dark dragon" for it to show up in my results.

 

[MilkBeard]

Whelp, gonna download this and see what it's all about (probably for about 5 minutes, which is the usual amount of time I spend with mobile games).

 

[SparksterMeta0]

I reember playing the original NES game, so this was in my radar last year.

I'll try it out later today.

 

[Delio]

Should i be rerolling or anything?

 

[Guymelef]

It's just me or it controls like shit on iPad?

Yeah the music is great, has a Kenji ito romancing saga vibe? At least that boss battle did.

 

[Kouriozan]

English only?
Square Enix pls, stop being lazy, Justice Monster V was also English only...

EDIT : ok, played for 10 mins and it's a nightmare to play on iPad.

 

[Brazil]

The fact that this great little game gets 20 posts and shite like Terra Battle 2 gets all the attention is depressing.

 

[RRockman]

Oh boy, can't wait to see if the Prince has crap taste in video games!

Oh boy, can't wait to see if the Prince has crap taste in video games!

Well, he did enjoy Justice Monsters V.

But this is really fun. And it has no stamina bar, too
