Review Witch & Hero (3DS eShop)
A curse upon the eShop
CIRCLE Entertainment has been a prolific publisher on DSiWare, bringing to the fore its own titles and also helping small developers share their work with the DSi/3DS audience. With so many titles against its name there are some that are excellent, as well as others that we'd sooner forget. Witch & Hero arrives on the 3DS...

About The Game
Witch & Hero is an 8-bit style action game.
You play as a hero accompanied by a witch taking on the evil Medusa, whom has destroyed many villages and towns with the monsters that stand before her.
Medusa turned the witch into stone, so she is no longer able to move. So it's up to the hero to defeat the monsters and collect their blood in order to recover the witch for a limited duration. The witch's destructive magic easily destroys monsters, but you will have to rely on the hero's will power primarily. He is able to try and try again, but the witch cannot, thus the hero must protect her.
Features
- Retro 8-bit pixel graphics and sound, along with simple controls
- Wipe out huge waves of monsters through 20 stages with 2 difficulties
- Choose between Trial mode and infinite mode for an in-depth challenge

This game has my interest. Let's see how it pans out.
lovin the visuals. very wonderboy-ish. Color me interested.
It looks nice, but the developer doesn't seem to have the best reputation, judging by the review scores of their previous efforts. Consider me tentatively interested.
i want, but i dont think ill get it
The retro style look so catchy!
Who said that HD visuals are the one making the stronger impressions? XP
Really hope it will be a game as interesting as the screenshots and the description hint
I downloaded it this morning and played it in the bus. It's kinda fun. But tough as well. At stage 4 at the moment.
Reminds me of Ys book 1 and 2. Looks simplistic and fun
@Boukman How did they do the 3d on the game? I'm very interested to see how a 2d top view game looks with the 3d screen effects. I love the 2d look of the game but really want to see a video how it looks
@Windy They didn't. There's no 3D effect.
No 3D indeed. It's a fun little game. Last stage is very difficult.
@KnightRider666 Let us know when you get this. I would love to see your take on it. I think your going to like it. It's already a cheapy but I wish Circle would drop the price about a dollar. It may appeal to more people if they do that. I think it would definately boost sales on Witch and Hero
