Well, almost...Don't be misguided by the colourful graphics and cartoon styled characters, this game is a pretty challenging adventuring experience!

KINGSLEY'S ADVENTURE is so beautiful, particulary the village areas (check out Rosary village & Sea Town they're gorgeous!). The game is a bit slow to get into (as there's a brief training session to make sure that you are up to the task)but its well worth it as there are some engrossing puzzles, cunning levels, frantic boss encounters and vicious (but still cute-ish)baddies to hack, the combat is simple but effective - its not just a case of hack-and-slash you must block and counterattack to survive! Not quite a blockbuster hit, but well worth your money!

A Hidden Gem in my humble opinion!Check it out...

Kingsley's Adventure is a game which debuted with a $40 price tag, but quickly fell to less than $20 and popping up in discount bins in my area like crazy. I can see why... it's not the premise of the game that's wrong, nor the graphics, not anything like that. The one huge problem here is the CONTROLS! They are SO terrible! It's such a struggle to get them working properly that it's the only thing you can concentrate on while playing. If only this game had had controls just as smooth and perfect as Crash Bandicoot's, and if only the weapons you use apart from the crossbow had more variety between them, Kingsley's Adventure could have been a real contender and a highly enjoyable game. Whoever programmed it, PLEASE! QUICK! >QUICK!< Re-release it with better controls and weapons and you've got a GREAT game! But please, HURRY! Otherwise it will be too late to save it from word-of-mouth! I'm serious, PLEASE re-release it with those two changes, and I'll be the first in line to buy it myself!
