Stones of the Revenant is inspired by retro arcade beat-em-ups like Golden Axe mixed with classic action-platformers like Ghouls ‘n Ghosts. Choose from six playable heroes; Radcliffe the Knight, Halvar the Barbarian, Brielle the Sorceress, Galina the Ranger, Isaak the Thief, and Fritz the Tinkerer. Each with their own unique playstyle!
Pair up with a friend via local co-op or fight your way solo through the Revenant’s followers and their undead minions. Destroy powerful artifacts known as the Stones of the Revenant and defeat the Revenant himself. Don’t let looks fool you! This is a challenging quest to save the realm of the living… Are you up for it?

The game is good, but the difficulty needs to be toned down and more continues need to be added. You can barely get past the first level; and by barely, I do mean barely. Enemies like the skeletons and snakes, can get their attacks in before you can with your weapon, thus causing you to lose health faster than you can kill them. Also, you are only given one continue in the game and if you die after having used your one and only continue, it is back to the first level again making all the work and effort you did, be for nothing. At least with side-scrolling games like Streets of Rage and Golden Axe to name a couple of examples, you were given at least three lives and three continues and weren't at the complete mercy with Sega like you are with ChickenCat Games with this game. Again, this game is good, but it is more brutal than good, which makes it stupidly hard. Hopefully more continues and health will be added as well as the difficulty get toned down somewhat. Also, if you play as the knight, you can't use the shield he has either which makes no sense for him to even have one since you can't protect yourself from projectiles like arrows for example.

Game does not support Keyboard/Mouse game play. Controller only for now. Keep that in mind when you're shopping for your next retro-platformer. For those of us with a controller, even a simple one, the game is fast, engaging, and the pixel art graphics are tight!
