I can’t believe it’s not Zelda! Chaos ventures into the Clockworks to try his hand at Spiral Knights, an action dungeon crawler by Three Rings, the same developer that made Doctor Who: Worlds in Time and Puzzle Pirates. At least there’s some great music to listen to this time…

was that a character made to look like Metal Sonic at the end?
The DEMACIA! part made me laugh!
The ONLY reason to even play this is to get the free TF2 hat
Its not a v.good game at all
Wow that music at the end while credits were rolling was very good
Also…grats on Vindictus working out of the blue
Too bad I stopped playing it already for like a year =/
I heard a lot of people left after a while, since new content was taking a while to update. Wonder how populated it is now. Let us know!
I tried this out when it first came out since i’ve always been a fan of Ian McConvillem (of Machall/three panel soul) artwork, of who worked on this game (I think most of your title/category cards are his work). It didn’t leave too much of an impression on me, though I’m surprised you didnt touch upon the ‘optional’ bosses (aka the harder then usual fights with an energy lock).
So, what’s working?
I did a review on this around the time when it came out on steam.. If that Crown Cost for Energy is “recent”..dear god. The cost of energy back when i reviewed it was cheaper..you would just eke out enough crowns in the 1st tier dungeons to afford 100 energy.
Though yeah, if your patient and not in a rush..getting crowns and storing up energy from the auction house isn’t an issue, but it takes A LONG TIME…not alot of people are patient.
I played this during the early betas (as you can tell I play a lot of MMO betas). I even got some of my WoW buddies to play it with me. I really haven’t touched it since it went up on steam. I might have to look back into it since me and my friends are getting bored grinding Guild Wars. That or Dragon’s Nest.
Also, nice to see people still spin-walk when they get bored of the normal walk animation, lol.
DEMACIA!
Phelous’ cameo was a welcome addition, heh.
Great work, as always, mate.
I actually tried Spiral Knights a while back, granted it was more for the TF2 hat, so I didn’t give it much of a chance, but after playing for a bit, time flew by and 4 hours passed. I tend to stick with a gun more often than not.
