User Rating:Have you always wanted to save the princess in distress? Don that shining armor and ride off slaying dragons? Well GOL: Legend lets you come a little close to that. In this tap and hold side scrolling platform, some dry humor is injected into an otherwise serious theme.
So you have your poor damsel being abducted and you set across the lands to rescue her. Along the way you go through perils and obstacles failing which you are destroyed.
Or forced to restart that stage.
As mentioned, the controls for the game are simple. Tap and hold the screen appropriately following the instructions on the screen will suffice for beating the obstacles. Sit back and watch cutesy animations like your knight urinating on fires to put them out. The little ridiculous acts executed to overcome these otherwise crazily dangerous foes will definitely put a smirk to your face.
While the game provides a variety of characters and game backgrounds to represent different stages, they all pretty much function the same way. Thus, there isn’t much to look forward to as the game progresses on.
However, I must say the game provides some decent entertainment and is worth the $0.99 purchase.
