Just King

Game mechanics

The action in the game is observed from an isometric view, and the whole game was made in 2D graphics. During each mission, our chosen five heroes must face hundreds of enemies, attacking us in waves. The enemies strike without mercy - it's only up to us whether we will be engaged in chaotic combat all the time, or decide to make a tactical retreat. The characters we control have their own unique sets of skills: some attack only at close range, others flare their opponents with arrows, still others use magic. The game also features a bard who cheers the others into battle.

As we win clashes and explore levels, we find numerous items to strengthen our heroes. At the end of each stage we face a powerful boss, defeating which allows us to unlock the next region, hero and mechanics. We make these difficult tasks easier by using synergies. Synergies are special combinations of heroes' skills, giving devastating effects (for example, one of the heroes occupies the opponent, while the other one razes him with arrows). During battles, we must remember that we can't lose the king, i.e. the leader of the squad, as we will then lose the battle. In addition to enemies, the environment also stands in our way: each biome offers its own set of environmental challenges that make it difficult for us to survive - in the case of a winter biome it will be the need to stay close to the fire, in another we have to watch out for poisonous plants, etc.

Technical aspects

Just King, thanks to its pixel art style, has low hardware requirements and draws attention thanks to its design. Visual aspect is complemented by simple soundtrack.
