"Sorry to keep you waiting!" for 25 years

OVER ALL RATING 9.0

The last kid icarus game "kid icarus:
of myths and monsters".

After 25 years pit is back with his best game yet. The kid icarus series is based upon the story of icarus from greek mythology. After 25 years not a lot of people are going to remember the story from the last game so nintendo basically came up with a new one. Medusa is (somehow) revived after 25 years and you must stop her. This game plays wonderfully over all. The controls however do no use any of the left side of the system which was unclear to me when I first play. I though to shoot you had to press one of the buttons on the left but as it turns out the left side is used for left handed players. A level is made up of a 5 minute air battle segment a 3 minute land battle segment and about a 1 to 2 minute boss battle at the end of each level. The game is scripted amazingly and the chemistry between characters is wonderful. Players will enjoy the many weapons the game has to offer from bows to clubs the game is full of weapons. The game also has a super smash bros. type of set up. From the menu looking a lot like the super smash bros. brawl menu to the food that you can pick up during gameplay to gain heath. There are also different kinds of vehicles to choose from. From the exo tank to the chrubot (chrubot is better in my opinion) they both have different kinds of attacks. The exo tank is better for ranged attacks while the chrubot is better for melee attacks.

In conclusion kid icarus uprising is a great game and if you have a 3DS and don't have this game do yourself a favor and go get it because if your a nintendo gamer you wouldn't want to be caught without it.
