MattinJ delivers another wonderful game to show us that there might still be hope in the world.

There are five main areas in this game with a boss in each world. Each area offers something different and a new atmosphere with fantastic visuals. Despite the title, there isn't a disproportional number of traps in the game and they never took away from the experience unlike the traps in some other well known adventure games. It's just a really well made adventure game with very few flaws in my eyes. I wholeheartedly recommend it.

A grand adventure of a game. Shares some gameplay similarities with MattinJ's other game 'I wanna be the Overlord' but has a much more light hearted vibe and bright style to it.

The story here is simply but nicely executed on. You live in a world that has been made dangerous by a "troll king" who has filled the world with various traps and trolls. Your job, of course, it to go kill him. Each of the world's has a distinctive and enjoyable aesthetic. Secrets are also peppered throughout, which can give important advantages for the final boss. I love the framing/rug-pull at the beginning, which fools you into thinking you've got a very different experience coming for you than you actually are. Trap/troll games have become less popular over the years, so it's always a pleasure to see high quality ones like this get released.

What really stands out, however is the bosses. Although not too difficult, the design of them is actually astounding. The Water Dragon in particular makes great use of a 2.5D aesthetic which can be a bit tricky to get used to but looks incredible. Every single one of them is pleasing to the eye and has a suitably epic soundtrack to boot.

A technically perfect game from a balancing and production level POV, my only critique would be it lacks a certain degree of length and epic-ness to justify a higher score. Still, this is an absolute gem and a must play.

One of the most fun fangames I've ever played, while there is a heavy troll/trap-heavy theme going on, this is primarily an open adventure experience where you can do the stages in basically any order, there's a lot of great references and funny traps but that alone wouldn't make the game as good as it is. When you really get down to it, the gameplay is just fun. Great platforming ideas with each world having an underlying theme which ties everything together, and even a little stage rush towards the end to throw more interesting gimmicks without needing a whole stage for them. This makes the experience feel varied and each stage is capped off with a great boss. The final boss is a bit tricky but you can go out of you way within the first four stages to get collectibles to make the boss easier, which was a pretty neat reward. Overall a fantastic fangame and definitely recommended regardless of your skill level!

Great fangame, enjoyed the whole adventure. The traps sometimes were a bit annoying but it was a really good experience regardless
