Last Knight HD (Version: 1.0.5)

Reviewed by Matthew Chan on Jan 21st 2013


Quick Rating: 9 out of 10

What is it?
► This is a fun running game feature horse riding and jousting. However, current version of the game does not support single cpu iDevices, such as iPod Touch 4, iPad 1, iPhone 3GS and iPhone 4.

Pro:
► Excellent 3D graphics making full use of Unreal engine
► Realistic ragdoll physics on horses, characters and other creatures in the game
► Great replay value with two gaming modes: Story and Endless. In Endless mode, each time you play in a randomly generated world. With Story mode, you play through an original fairy tale story.
► Fully customized controls – you can choose anything between swipe and button controls. Swipe sensitivity can also be customized, which I found it is important for swipe control since the default sensitivity is too low for responsive left-right control (also see Con).
► Fun and challenging gameplay – riding through narrow caves with enemies is full of challenges.

Con:
► In the Story mode, the story screen flashed whenever the game displayed a new dialog. I found it quite annoying. Luckily, it did not affect the gameplay screen.
► Even I set the sensitivity to max (80), I still found left-right control not very responsive.

In-App Ad:
► None

Similar Apps:
► Temple Run: Brave
► PITFALL!
► Into the Dead
► Running Dead
