ALT "The Knightling is truly a delightful game. A wonderful action-platformer where you play as the diminutive page of a famous knight, dragging around his too-big-for-you shield to try and track him down to return it and help him save the day- it's a charming premise that carries the experience to the end. Traversal and movement are fun every step of the way, with a smooth progression always adding in new ways to leap across the map, and combat was surprisingly well-designed for such a simple premise. The game could've had a 1-2-3 combo and a parry and called it a day, but it's got enough depth to keep you invested and a movelist that uses every part of the buffalo, not too much and not too little. Animation is lovely, music is great, exploration is great- if I has this game as a kid, it would've stuck with me as a lifelong favorite. Can't recommend enough if you enjoy classic mascot platformer types."
