A bafflingly overpraised auto-runner that looks good but soon becomes tiresome
10.0
Wind-Up Knight is a tough but rewarding running game with excellent production values.
10.0
Sometimes a developer can get so caught up in an idea that they'll let slide something as fundamental as ensuring the gameplay remains engaging just to keep a concept on board. Wind-up Knight by Robot Invader could very well have slipped in to this trap thanks to its clockwork protagonist, but not only does the idea make for a charming theme, it also makes for a compelling platformer.
