[b]kingslayer: the first assassin[/b] wears its primary goal on its sleeves: kill the king, as ronnie james dio once sang. tear him down even. 27 of the [b]29 levels[/b] are unlocked from the start, each consisting of a grid, a dagger representing you, a gate representing the exit, and a bunch of other tiles. walls, transparent walls you can walk through, various soldiers that take one or two hits to kill, barrels to push out of the way, traps that decrease the move count every time you step on them, some sort of metal thing that destroys daggers (can go into negative numbers), and tiles that grant extra moves or daggers. later on gates will be locked and a number of keys have to be picked up before leaving. so it's a puzzler with [b]mandatory move and dagger limits[/b], can't just wander around and kill (or avoid) everybody. no problem with such resource management elements, but [b]no undo[/b] can be a pain, though not as much as in some other games without it, as levels are relativ...

It goes by quickly and does not get as difficult as I would like, but it is priced right and involves some original elements. I wish the squares you move through were all empty instead of gray background. The rapid movement segments at the end (to evade moving knights) seem out of place.

A fun, minimalist puzzle game that's relaxing rather than frustrating to play, yet works in enough of a challenge in the final levels to provide a sense of accomplishment when you beat the game. It doesn't overstay its welcome, it has a neat aesthetic to it, and was on sale for under a dollar. So I'm quite happy with my purchase. Verdict - For the price, ten pigeon pies out of ten. Would regicide again.

A fun and challenging game that's well worth the price.

Completed the game (all achievements) just now. For sure worth the tiny amount of money for a game that is built to be a game, and not just a product. So few puzzle games are as simple and fundamental yet challenging and not philosophically (by game design) bankrupt. The only issues I've come across are two minor bugs, 1. Game starts maximised windowed despite previous or set settings (e.g. windowed non-maximised). 2. You can expend more resources than required if you action too quickly.
