Sure, I'll be the first. I've played every western-released Monster Boy game and love the series! The recent Dragon's Trap remake was really well done. Hope for more wonder!
@FantasiaWHT I am hearing good things no reviews yet but previews sound positive. Is it worth the price tag though which is twice as much as the dragon's trap remake though?.
Dragons trap remake was great. I LOVE wonder boy in monster world on mega drive so hope this new game is as good. Monster world over with the female character lead is also exceptional, I only recently got it on the Wii eshop for the official English translation. Sooo good.
I just started playing Monster Boy and the Cursed Kingdom for a few hours and I really enjoy it! Great graphics and gameplay! I think itโs the best platformer of 2018!
I definitely seeing this as being overshadowed by the SSBU release 12/7... Regardless, this game is amazing! Gorgeous graphics and excellent soundtrack from me well known composers in the industry. Don't let this title.slip by you if you enjoy platformers! ๐
Definitely looking forward to playing this one. Looks absolutely terrific.
