Candle Knight‘s premise and presentation are what carry it. As a platformer itself, it’s decent enough, with some great level designs and one neat little gimmick, but it’s also hindered by poor controls and physics. The outstanding graphics, interesting environments and Elfman-inspired music will mostly make you forget about these setbacks and let you dive into this bizarre, but oddly charming world. All in all, it’s a decent little game, and worth checking out if you can put up with some technical hindrances. Read review | |||||

Candle Knight is a solid game with some interesting ideas. This is definitely a title that fits into the category of a diamond with some rough edges. I liked how it tried changing the familiar adventure formula with its adaptive difficulty and balancing combat and exploration. This is helped further with good visuals and a soundtrack. The trouble is many of its elements feel a bit clunky, much like if you were wearing a suit of armour yourself. Combat is hard to grasp at times, particularly when blocking, and some of the platforming is a bit fiddly. But the game isn’t unplayable. Most players should easily see past these issues and enjoy a nice candlelight gaming night (actual candle optional when gaming). If you have room in your gaming schedule for another adventure, then Candle Knight may just be the light you are looking for. Read review | |||||

Candle Knight ofrece una aventura de plataformas en 2,5D, sumando combates con su propio toque. Nuestro caballero flamígero luchará, pero sobre todo, saltará y saltará. El juego es completo, satisfactorio y desafiante. Retos de trampas y plataformas, mientras exploramos concienzudamente sus escenarios, y viajamos a otras partes interconectadas por cuadros, resolviendo también puzles, y logrando mejoras por el camino. Pero se afea un bello trabajo con problemas de control, algo que sería herejía precisamente en el género de las plataformas, pero que afortunadamente no fastidian una aventura con un encanto particular.

Candle Knight is a decent Metroidvania style game. It doesn’t reinvent the wheel, the unique combat adds a unique layer of strategy, albeit it does feel like it holds the game back and it’s a lazy way to avoid opting for a deeper combat system. If you’re a fan of the genre, I’d definitely recommend Candle Knight. If you’re looking to dabble in the genre however, I wouldn’t recommend this as your first experience. Read review | |||||

Oozing with both charm and challenge, Candle Knight ticks all the boxes for a captivating action platformer. Dynamic gameplay, atmospheric visuals, and the unique ignis system make it a must-play for fans of the genre. Read review | |||||

Candle Knight is a title that tries to hook us with its Metroidvania style, but fails to do so. Read review | |||||
