(Don't) Save the Princess!

IndieGames: Freeware Game Pick


(Don’t) Save The Princess reminds me a lot of one of my favourite childhood games Chu Chu Rocket, and that’s definitely not a bad thing.

You’ve captured the princess and now the knight must be thwarted in his attempt to save her. This, of course, involves placing arrow blocks all over the screen in an attempt to fling him around, eventually landing in the jaws of your pet monster. When the knight touches the force coming from a placed block, he will speed off in that direction. Stringing together the right path is the key.

The knight will also smash through any arrow block which he has already used before - another idea used by Chu Chu Rocket. While the game begins rather strangely, it does become quite compelling to play. It never really gets difficult and can be whizzed through in a good half an hour, but it’s worth a play.

There’s also a level editor with the option to save your puzzles for other players to have a crack at. Grab a piece of the knight-flinging action over on Alexander Shen’s site.

Some time ago, we posted a screenshot of the Mexico level. A curiosity about it is that, like some other scenarios of the game, it was inspired by a real landscape, The Basaltic Prisms of Santa María Regla. It is one of the natural wonders of the country!

Hey you, rookie! Yes, I am talking to you!! Come over here? Relax! Just stick to me and everything will be fine. By the way, my name is James Varhuher, but you can call me Big J. I will bring you up to speed.
