There's a DEMO IF you like the looks of it.If you wanna win this game we have a couple of copies to give, nothing fancy required - watch, comment and enjoy! So incredible to be able to bring you this one and the news of that awesome subscriber - let me know if this one tickles your fancy…wait how does the video have 7 likes before I have finished typing this you legends! Mark
Hahahaha I was right there!
Ouu, it gives me similar vibe with Hades and ember knight
Commented! 😊
This looks so cool!
This one looks super cool and is right up our alley. I love the art style
This is EXACTLY what I've been looking for, and I never would have known about it without you! Thanks!
Man, I really love when games offer demos for us to try them out. And as always, great review! Thanks for taking the time to record and upload it
The backlog is gonna take another hit- can’t wait to try this one! Fair play to that very generous subscriber. Shows what a great community you guys have created with this channel 🎉
This caught my eye as I was checking out other channels, so I'm glad to see a review on here as well. The voice acting work seems to add so much to the overall charm to this game. This has been added to the wishlist, and I might take a stab at it once I've finished with Sea of Stars!
I really like the way they did the fog in this game, gives me a rougelite- Fate type vibes.
Can't wait to try this! Looks extremely addictive and hard to put down, exactly what I need.
It looks really good! I like that it's got its own spin on the genre by adding in the base building elements. It's very keeping with the castle theme.
I like the idea of grabbing different skills from different knights. Looks great too !
From what I've seen, this kind of reminds me of Ember Knights, which I loved. I'm definitely sold already, started downloading it before the video was over. Thanks for the vid, Mark and Azdin!
VERY similar to render Ember knights. Mark
Seriously agree with the thumbnail, just done playing the demo and this pops up, must be a sign
I tried the demo a few days ago and really enjoyed it..kind of gave me Cat Quest vibes and I was surprised to find so much voice work in it especially how well it was done
Same I love the rouglike gameplay and the movement
I like it when the games shows how the skill will look like before you use it. So often have I forget how each skills works in combat.
I appreciate it when games take inspiration from existing ones and put their own spin on it. This looks pretty sick.
Looks like a great game! This is one that might just have to move up on the wishlist. Thanks for the video!
I've been seeking for a roguelike to play in quite a while, would have missed this one if it wasn't for this video, thanks!
You're the only review channel I watch and I'm sure I can speak for everyone when I say thank you for all that you do - fantastic review as always
Already loved it based on this video review alone, well done on giving us a good initial input on how the game plays. I've always had a huge love for roguelikes and shmups...😊
This game looks fun. Good art style. Thanks for all the work you guys do to keep us informed on all these games we’d miss otherwise!!
Picked up a copy for myself. Thanks for the review. Looks like a lot fun! 🙏🏻💚
I am very susceptible to this genre and I had no idea about this. Thankyou for bringing it to my attention!
This game looks amazing. I really hope there are settings to reduce the frames the damage areas are active or even eliminate them. I just love making my roguelites that much harder. You guys always show up with the best games. Thanks.
I'm not normally a fan of these games but I picked hades up on your video on it and had a blast playing it and this looks like it might also scratch that itch!
Just when I think I'll start playing my backlog something shows up. Thanks in advance for the fun I'm sure I'll have with this.
Love just listening to these reviews despite the back log that does not seem to like being dwindled! Super keen to play this! :) Thanks lads :)
Fair play to the donation. Ought to make someone quite happy. The game looks pretty dang good. Excellent dive.
Honestly, the first thing i've noticed is the smooth framerate. Im sold! Looks good as well. Great visuals and art style! Looking forward to playing it
Hadn't heard of this game before but it looks fantastic! :o
Thanks for the video!
This looks really good, adding to the backlog probably, but for sure I am checking out this demo. Thanks for all the hard work guys!
You're welcome mate! Mark
I love this community you’ve built. What a legend that unnamed subscriber is!
Recently finished Hades and have been looking for something new. Recently started watching your videos as well. I really enjoy them. Keep it up.
I love your videos! This game looks so smooth and crisp. Looks like a really good time. Keep it up guys I never miss a video
Gave the demo a try, pretty impressed! I was initially going to pass on this one because there is just so much coming out right now and these things tend to be very hit-or-miss, but it's definitely on my radar again now.
Thanks for the great review!! Heading off to DL the demo now.
Thank you for putting together another great review! Definitely one to add to the game collection.
It looks like it plays pretty smooth. I’m getting a dopamine rush whenever you defeat a boss and the victory message and fancy lights pop up on the screen. Love me some Hades and this looks pretty sick. Thanks for the suggestion.
I always get sucked into these lovely reviews! And the game looks very nice and colorful! And as you said, the controls must be tight so it is nice that they are! Adding it to my wishlist!!!
check out the demo! Mark
Hey Mark!@@SwitchUpYt
Nice! Have been looking for another roguelite with the tight hades controls :)
I was kind of thrown off by the graphics style at first, but this is a very good game! It is very smooth and responsive of your inputs... the fact that all of the knights abilities level up based on how much you use them and you can mix and match is a giant bonus! Also, what I did not expect, is that I am greatly into the story as well im this game as the dialogue is mostly spoken and charming to me.
Just seeing the video alone its interesting that you can see where different influences have really come into the game from its competition in the genre, you said quite a few that I instantly agreed with. Some games when they try and take a bit of everything don't let them mesh well and it's nice to read that this one does.
I will be adding it to my collection soon no doubt next payday and I also like seeing visual evolution of a hub area, it feels more worth it that you playing, gaining skill and more currency each run has a greater effect on the hub and it grows with you. very good review and hope someone enjoys that oled switch, lovely soul whoever donated that.
Consider my fancy well and truly tickled!
I really like the look of this one, onto my list it goes!
Fellas this looks like a gem! Also cheers to the big hearted person donating the switch at Christmas time.
Base building and roguelites go together like... well, two things that go together really well.
Im definitely gonna try the demo for this one, thanks for putting it on my radar!
Looks like the perfect game for my upcoming long weekend 😅 Great content as always, Switchup team!
It looks so cool. I usually don't like roguelites, but they're starting to grow on me. I may actually give this a try one day. Though my backlog has gotten so extensive, it'll probably be a while
Oooh definitely trying out that demo, love when devs/publishers do that
‘Merlin ballsed it up’ 😂 looks like a fun little game and a cheeky price too! Nice
Looks great! I was just about to buy this game but couldn't find a good review.
This is juat what I was looking for!
Love the demo.
Been playing for a while and it's def addictive.
I love how the narrator explaining bits by bits about the story too.
It looks like Hades but focusing on the Camelot
Roguelikes/lites have been my favorite genre since the first version of Binding of Isaac released way back when. They are very hard to do right though… has to be the perfect distillation of gameplay, run variety, synergies, unlocks, etc. Interested to try this one!
This looks like something I would love. Hades was my first love in the rougelike genre, so I always like finding new ones
Great review! You always find the best games to play. This is why I love this channel.
WOW it is so fast paced with the action like
"see ya!"
This game looks amazing! I've been needing something to scratch that Hades itch!
Thanks for the review. I had somehow missed this one and the demo is pretty great so far.
I was interested before this video, but after watching it, I'm EXTREMELY excited to try this game. Thank you Switch Up!
This looks pretty cool. I was also intrigued by Deflector as well.
I’ll definitely Be checking out the demo for this.
Thank you for describing what the "inverse kinematic style" is. I've heard it a few times before but never really understood.
This looks awesome! Checking out the demo immediately! Can’t wait!
Would love to get my son a switch for Christmas that way when he goes off to college we can still periodically game together.
Looks pleasant enough. The first impression I got from seeing the game was it reminded me of Bastion. Now that the buttons are tickled, lets go take down some Giants!!
This one looks super sick!!! Definitely wanna give it a go, been dying to fill that Hades-shaped hole and Arthurian legend is a phenomenal shout
Gameplay looks sooo satisfying, great video as usual!
Definitely intrigued!! Why has my backlog grown exponentially since subbing to this channel 🤣🤣
Oooh this looks really fun! I've actually yet to play Hades, but with Slay the Spire easing me into the roguelite formula, I'm starting to understand the appeal and I'm more willing to try out other games of that genre, and this one looks really attractive. Love the homing bullets! And there's a demo available! OK, gonna download that one and try it out very soon!
Thanks for the video! I'm always a bit wary with sponsored contents, but you've more than earned my trust so you're one of the few channels whose sponsored "reviews" I watch as well. I know you'll still be honest with your comments even when you're paid to make the video.
So I have hades, and always preferred bastion and transistor. I had it come in well in front of pyre. However ...knights and giants I'm totally hooked. I have no idea why I prefer it, I just do. Great video as always. Hope your both well!
Think im gomna love this one! Thanks for the content lads!!!
This game looks so colorful, looks like a mix of Hades and Ghosts and Goblins. Thanks for the coverage about this game!
I will need to check out the demo for this, I love the look of it! I’m always looking for more roguelites!
The demo is just lovely! would have slipped under my radar if not for your coverage :)
I know right! My catalog of switch games has quadrupled since watching these vids 😂
It seems that some people are turned off when they see another rogue like game due to the absurd amount of options we have available to play. I for one love the genre especially because the game will continue to have replay ability games like this have after you complete the story. The boss fights caught my eyes in this review and it runs a lot smoother that most games you’ve reviewed recently which I love to see.
this game looks incredible, ive always been fascinated by knights and the arthurian legend
I would have to vote hell yeah I am getting this. Thanks for the review and showcasing this.
I've been loving roguelikes lately. Was burnt out for a while. Giving me some Ember Knights vibes too
I had never heard anything about this game until yesterday when I saw a launch video. I am highly impressed.
I’m enjoying this! A few things hold it back from Hades-level quality though:
-I’ve experienced lots of stuttering.
-The random elements and choices are relatively lacking, so the runs feel a lot more “same-y” than many other roguelikes.
With some updates and patch work, though, this game could be a real gem!
Looks great! Going to try it out for sure!
Absolutely loved Hades, the backlog will be crying once again! This looks awesome and the review makes it even better!
It looks pretty nice!
It makes me think of rogue legacy art style mixed with hades gameplay.
Definitely wanna try it out
Hey guys, thanks for the hard work. This game looks really fun! I hope to eventually play it. Have a great one yall
Looks good, another great video from you. Wish I could find a 2 player game like this one. Cheers
This game actually looks pretty cool. You're not kidding about there being a ton of these on the Switch!
We're Knights of the Round Table.
We dance whene'er we're able.
We do routines and chorus scenes
With footwork impeccable.
We dine well here in Camelot.
We eat ham and jam and spam a lot.
I love Arthurian Legend and I have played most of their games. There has been a lot of darker toned Arthurian games as of late, but this is a nice take with a more whimsical color palette. Would definitely love to give this one a go.
Tried the demo the other day and it was awesome. This is a physical I’m eagerly awaiting!
I was never a huge fan of roguelikes until I played Hades. That game finally made me take the genre seriously and not get frustrated with it as much. It's good to see other developers put their own spin on the genre and release some quality games. This one looks pretty fun and something I wouldn't mind adding to the backlog
Great review once again. I love the format, keep at it. I need you to also stop feeding my addiction to these types of games.
Im going to try this game probably, putting it on my wishlist rn
Oh nice. I like a game that is absolutely clear about the Hitboxes. Straight to my wishlist. Btw Jotun is somewhere in my Backlog for over a year now. I should finally play this one.
I definitely need to play this it looks like loads of fun, just downloaded the demo to try it out
We just watched this as a family and we weren’t even halfway through and almost everyone was saying “I want it”. 5 of the 6 of us play Hades. I can’t without changing lights and effects in the game - but even I want to try Knight and Giants. This looks great.
It’s giving Ember Knight vibes as well, which was another recommend from y’all that I fell into a rabbit hole with haha. Haven’t really dug rouge likes for a long time and now they are all I play
Looks like a really fun game! Can't wait to try it. The backlog only keeps growing 😅
Hades with Giants?! Ginormous thumbs up ;) Looks great!
It looked pretty decent already before release, but good to know it’s up to snuff! Giveaway or no, I’ll definitely keep an eye on this and buy it on sale sometime and try the demo, looks like I’ll have fun when I get to it. Definitely a fan of how nice and smooth it looks in motion.
Looking forward to playing this one!!
Keep em coming! I love these rogue lites!
I will definitely be downloading the demo. Love that demos are making a comeback
Looks great. Looking forward to play this one!
looks like a charming little game! the market is pretty swollen with a roguelikes, but this does look like it's worth checking out.
