    Fun combat and a genuinely funny script rescue this incredibly lazy port. [Issue#251, p.63]

    This game has personality and that elevates it to being a more memorable experience than if it was just left to the repetitive button mashing.

    The battles can be fun and reminded me of the old school Mortal Kombat game. What I didn’t love was that if you die you have to redo the entire battle all over again.

    Code of Princess is a mobile game that was ported over to various other platforms, including the PC.

    As for what it is, it is your standard beat-em-up game that mixes in some light RPG like elements and a equipment system.

    If you are a fan of games like Streets of Rage, this game might be for you. If not, well it's rather grindy and is going to require you to take time to actually level up character in order to be able to actually finish the game.

    The games not bad, but it uses the leveling and equipment system to increase the length of the game. Without it, I doubt this game would be more than an hour or so worth of play. As it stands, I wasn't a huge fan of it.
