Castle of Heart Is an Action Platformer with a Dark Twist
In this experience, you fill the role of a cursed knight who fights to replenish his energy. The longer you adventure without success, more of your body turns into stone. This is Castle of Heart, a new platformer scheduled to be released for the Nintendo Switch in Q1 2018.
Developer 7Levels has crafted a unique storytelling experience where you fight monsters in four immersive environments. Each setting is unique and comes with its own series of levels, offering a total of 20 levels for over 7 hours of gameplay. Conditions can vary per level with intense and breathtaking platforming sequences. Then there’s the dynamic combat, melee and magic factoring into the player’s hostile interactions. You can see for yourself in Castle of Heart’s new gameplay trailer below.
In this game, it’s possible to go so long without energy that the knight will lose his arm to stone. As a result, 1 of 50 weapons found throughout the campaign would not be available for use. That only leaves 49 weapons available to suit your preferred playstyle. Since Castle of Heart is a Nintendo Switch-exclusive, it will utilize the hybrid console’s HD Rumble features. As is apparent in the gameplay footage, here’s a side-scroller that would play beautifully on the go. If you’re an owner of Nintendo’s console, be sure to keep updated on this new action platformer from 7Levels.
