It’s not always possible to be strategic though it’s easy to get stuck, where your only option is to hit whatever is directly next to you. You can take out solitary units – it isn’t quite like a match-three puzzler where you must have at least three matching blocks together – but you’ll be more successful (and score more gems) if you can take out groups, particularly of enemies. Grouping enemies or objects together allows you to chain hits, clearing multiple of them in one go. Opening treasure chests whenever you can is also helpful, as you’ll find temporary weapon upgrades, armour and useful items.
Thankfully, there are plenty of health potions, so you’ll spend your time between hitting enemies and refilling your health. Unless a blow is deadly, you’ll take damage each time you hit an enemy, so you’ll need to constantly keep an eye on your own health level. Enemies come in different types, all with varying levels of HP and all attacking you in different ways. You’ll need to keep clearing everything if the screen fills up, it’s game over. In Shovel Knight: Pocket Dungeon, enemies, blocks, treasure chests, keys and health pick-ups fall from the top of the screen. Messy, but still pretty good fun when you get into the swing of things. It feels like a match-three puzzler with combat, and the result is… a little messy. Shovel Knight: Pocket Dungeon, developed by Yacht Club Games with VINE, is instead a fast-paced puzzle game that sees you destroying groups of enemies to clear the screen, and see how far you can get before succumbing to death. Shovel Knight is back, but not as you know him.įorget the platforming action that you know and love Shovel Knight for.
