DESCRIPTION

One of the NES' best platformers, Little Samson is a tour de force of excellent game design, attractive graphics and pure entertainment value. Ta-keed, the evil Prince of Darkness, is wreaking havoc on Kingdom of the Imperial Forgy. Emperor Hans summons the four heroes of the land to restore order and defeat him. As the game begins, you control each of the four characters as they make their way to the emperor. There's Little Samson, who throws magic bells and can climb walls; Kikira the Dragon Lord, with her fiery breath and the ability to fly; Gamm the Rock Lord, a strong stone warrior who can punch short distances and walk on spikes; and finally, the diminutive K.O. the Mouse, who drops bombs and can climb walls. Once the first four levels are complete, you are able to toggle between the four characters at any time. The stages are challenging and creatively designed, requiring you to utilize the distinct skills of each hero to overcome enemies and obstacles, and the characters themselves each look and feel unique, right down to their own theme music. ~ Skyler Miller, All Game Guide
