5.0 out of 5 stars Hail To The King Prima Guide, July 17, 2001

By	Yuri Phillipe Freitas da Cunha (Sao Jose, Santa Catarina Brazil) - See all my reviews

Very cool guide. There are many pictures in there, so you can check where you are in the game with the walkthrough and hot hints to be a king. If you have the game or you're thinking about buying it, don't forget to buy this cheap and preety guide.

3.0 out of 5 stars A Good Company For A Regular Game, June 1, 2003

By	Yuri Cunha "Juggalo" (Brazil) - See all my reviews

I don't actually think you'll need a guide for an easy game like Hail To The King, which has no complicated puzzles and stuff. But, if you feel like taking a guide, to avoid commiting mistakes throughout the game, feel free to buy this guide, trust me, it's good.
It's fully colored and ilustrated, the walkthrough is full of hints and things, you shall finnish the game well with it. There are also descriptions of the game weapons, enemies, bosses (and the best ways to beat them down). In the index, it says there is an Evil Dead Trivia in this guide, but it's completely untrue. There is no Trivia in here.
So, the guide accomplishes its objective, but it's not awesome or anything. It will help you to beat the game, and it's... a good company for a regular game. That's about it.
