Game Review
TOTAL KNIGHTMAAAAARE!!! Knightmare Tower is a new launch and slash action flash game that shows you how to defy gravity like a sir! The story requires you to do something heroic; You are a knight and an evil being residing at the top of the Knightmare Tower have kidnapped 10 princesses! Hurry up, grab your sword and launch yourself up the tower to rescue them. Don't let those gruesome monsters stop you from completing your quest.
For your information, Juicy Beast is the talented developer studio who created the Burrito Bison series. This time round, they have attempted something different; Vertical launching style! You are shot from a big-ass rocket upwards. Equipped with your trusty sword and armor, you will slice-and-dice at upcoming enemies to gain speed and not to fall from the tower. If you fall however, your rocket will come to your rescue. Doing this over and over will ensure you stay above the rising lava, increase your speed and ultimately rescue all the princesses. Luckily enough, you will find yourself power-up potion that will give a good boost.
I really enjoyed this game, it was original for me, all of the mechanics complimented each other very well. Everything you do results in a direct reward. Saving a princess by reaching a certain distance in the tower will unlock new elements to the gameplay. The game is addictive and satisfying, with a survival mode after you complete the story one. The easy to master gameplay make it a winner for players looking for something snappy and casual to fill some time.
It cannot be stressed enough how unacceptably fantastic this game is. It started off very simple. Five minutes later, I'm frantically avoiding fireballs, giant spiked snakes and beams of energy, while trying to attack enemies with pinpoint accuracy. Somehow I don't think those princesses are the king's biological daughters... Or may be the king just had a lot of fun in his day. :D

I have tried using this build and it got me to the boss with 1 more round of upgrades before maxing out my character. This game doesn't rely on your build, don't worry if you don't follow the sequence. You will still win the game easily.
Pro tip: Health bars will only appear above enemies you currently can't kill in one hit. Use this to identify which enemies you will have to hit multiple times.
