    Amazing Princess Sarah is a solid action platformer that is fun to blast through, and for $5 it is hard not to recommend it to fans of the genre. Low replay value aside this is an enjoyable romp, granted you have the patience and skills to finish these treacherous castles.

    A real blast from the past, recalling early Metroid and Super Mario times. It offers lots of contents and a good replayability, but the experience isn't always perfect due to a small input lag and an unpleasant knock back when touching enemies. All things considered, Amazing Princess Sarah is however an entertaining retro experience capable of delivering hours of fun to the genre lovers.

    Amazing Princess Sarah is well worth the price of $6.49 if you are fans of classics like Ghosts & Goblins and Wizards & Warriors. If you haven't played these games or ones similar to it yet, Amazing Princess Sarah does a brilliant job of embracing the genre at its core while not alienating fans with the modern day improvements that newcomers will enjoy.

    • The good: "a cure of humility" to everyone who thinks he is very good at platform games. Good level of challenge. Very re-playable. Fights• The good: "a cure of humility" to everyone who thinks he is very good at platform games. Good level of challenge. Very re-playable. Fights against epic bosses. Excellent Pixel Art. Excellent Level Design to overcome obstacles in higher and added difficulties

    • The bad: enemies are strategically placed to **** you in one way or another. You will die, you will die, you will die and you will die again which can frustrate more than one. If you despair very easy, avoid it. Difficult achievements

    • The Meh!: You have to finish the game 7 times in New Game + to face the real Final boss and therefore see the real Final game. Each New Game + involves passing the game with increasing difficulty and an extra that gives more difficulty to the already difficult scenarios if the level of the enemies rises and gives an extra challenge to **** the game as for example
    * Angry Princess there is a ghost that chases you (like those in Mario Bross) and does not stop if you do not return to see it (try that while you are in a ravine with precise jumps and platforms that disappear and have to return to see it)
    * Drunk Princess Sarah is drunk and the stage is swaying back and forth and does not stop until you complete all levels.
    * Curse Princess you have 128 Second to get to the next save point or instant death.
    * Bat Princess enemies including bosses are invulnerable to your sword but not to what you throw bats or other objects, only then can you defeat them
    The fortresses are infested with bats that do not stop.    … Full Review »
