  1. Little King's Story

    Reviewer: GameSpot
    9 June 2009

    Little King's Story is one of those rare games that manages to keep on surprising and pleasing you as you play it. In addition to featuring amusing characters, gorgeous visuals, and challenging boss fights, it also raises interesting points about religion, the nature of leadership, the rights of monarchy, and a whole host of other things. It is not without its foibles, but Little King's Story is still a great game for any Wii-owning RPG or RTS fan. Read more

  2. It may look cute and innocent, but this is one badass strategy game

    But most of all, when everyone else is mucking around in blood and guts, Little King’s Story has the tenacity to be an actual game you can play and play and play. The first true essential of 2009, this little king towers above the competition. Read more

    It's easy to dismiss Little King's Story as another kiddie game for Wii. The cute box art, saccharine character design and adorable name are enough for most enthusiast gamers to give this title a pass. That would be a monumental mistake. Read more

    Take a look at the cover art up above. The fairytale setting features a king, a princess, an old knight on a cow, a dragon, farm animals, and townsfolk going about their everyday lives. It's an image that hints at a family-friendly game that children and their parents can enjoy together. But if one were to look past the fuzzy feelgood picture and take a closer look at the actual game, he or she will find that it belies Read more

  1. Video game reviews: Little King's Story (Wii)

    Reviewer: Elton Gahr, review.helium.us

    This is probably a good game for kids, especially if you want them to have to think and solve things but it is generally too simple for adults and while they tried to make it appeal to older people they didn't quite succeed. Read more

    This is one of the best video games I've played on the Wii; I had some control issues with the game, but beyond that, I reallly enjoyed it. If you're looking for something to play on the Wii, I'd definitely consider picking this game up. Read more
