Shovel Knight: Plauge of Shadows

Dark side of the Shovel

Got the update for Shovel Knight and I gotta say it is rather fun although the gameplay is much harder. You play as Plague Knight in search for ingredients to the ultimate potion. The ingredients are the essence of the other knights meaning you have to defeat the other knights and the enchantress. The knight maps all have a secret area where you can find the relic of the stages, but since you are an almighty Alchemist you sell it to Chester who then will sell it to Shovel Knight. And the reason why you make this potion so you can be together with Mona... or was it the Magicant? Doesn't matter, it is a cute story where Plague Knight learns how to dance from the fish king and still is to embarrassed to dance in front of her. And then Shovel Knight, he's awesome. First he storms Plague Knights castle and you have to defeat him, but as he is the hero, he makes one final attack and strike you down. Of course you still need his essence so you sneak up on him when he sleeps and take it. And then again when you break up the feast before the enchantress stage he's such a dick. I saved them all when I played as Shovel Knight, this Shovel Knight just leaves. And of course due to every relationship cliche Mona saves you from your dangerous experiment cause she loves you, but in turn is turned into a dangerous version of you and you have to save her... by defeating her.

UNLIMITED ALCHEMICAL POWER

Basically the same game, but with another character. Plague Knight I feel is a bit harder to control due to the explosive jumps and powers makes me fly all over the screen and a such platforming important game makes it difficult as hell. Although defeating the final boss feels so satisfying. It's a free update if you get the original game so play on. Also, there is some new areas in most stages and the first town is completely different due to not be able to enter it since you are a bad guy. Continuity!
