Critic Reviews
Nintendo Blast
By Lucas OliveiraDespite the problems presented, the visuals of the protagonists, some interesting skills and the well-designed bosses make Fallen Knight a competent and fun game, at least during the first few hours.

By James LuffFallen Knight is a tough but entertaining action platformer. Difficult like the retro days but also an appealing challenge if you’re willing to take up the sword and give it a go. I would like to mention that if you’re prone to stress by high difficulty or easily enraged you may just want to pass on this. I totally lost my cool with some of the grindy boss fights but I kept coming back for more. Fallen Knight is totally suitable for all ages, so even if this is not for you it may make an appealing present for a youngling or any fan or Knight robots with swords. And who wouldn’t be into that?

By Alana DunitzA super fun 2D action-platformer with a unique twist on a classic story. Even for someone who plays a lot of games like this I was still challenged and really enjoyed the unique addition of being able to parry and disarm the enemies instead of just killing.

By GameBlastEven with the initial problems, which are currently mostly Fixed, Fallen Knight can be considered a respected “spiritual successor” to the Mega Man X franchise. The title manages to bring together fast-paced and exciting combat, iconic bosses and a well-crafted story, aspects much appreciated in the adventure and platform genre. The experience was not only satisfying, it also left me wanting more from this universe.

By Adrian BurrowsThere's a nice central idea to Fallen Knight, and offering players two vastly different play styles is a good twist. Sadly, the host of problems that suffuse the game from beginning to end will put off all but the most determined or masochistic of players.
