Little King's Story - review roundup

GN Version 3.1

“I think it’s safe to say that Little King’s Story is a prime example of knowing never to judge a book by its cover. A fine mix between classics such as Harvest Moon, Pikmin, and (oddly enough) Command & Conquer, Little King’s gameplay is an innovative melting pot of genre-bending ingredients, thickly applied to a wonderfully engaging and open world.” - GamePro

“At first glance it looks simplistic, but this is actually a mature, fresh, and challenging game. There are references to everything from Nietzsche to Cervantes, and Douglas Adams to Captain Beefheart, as well as nods through the dialogue, visuals and music to gaming classics such as Super Mario Bros and Space Invaders.” - GameSpot

“Borrowing heavily from elements of Nintendo’s Pikmin and Animal Crossing franchises, Little King’s Story is a strategic RPG that builds slowly, pushing you at just the right strength to keep things interesting. For all its inspired elements, it comes from incredible heritage – the creative minds behind the Dragon Quest and Final Fantasy series – and it shows in all aspects.” - IGN AU
