Little Monk description

Amazing isometric arcade game from Taiwanese developer, about which, for all its virtues, we can say not so much.

You play as a bald little monk from Shaolin (more like child) who walks through the levels and fight all sorts of creatures of ancient Chinese mythology and not only. Among the enemies there are mostly different animals type of snakes, snails, beetles, and other (drawn extremely funny, even to kill a pity), but will subsequently appear more "serious" creature (different spirits and dragons, for example), including bosses, are also taken from myths (and often humanoid), to win which is very difficult. Also the game is very large number of bonuses, some of which give our hero a variety of new abilities, and some are powerful weapons (such as bombs and shooting balls).

Graphically it all looks fine (that is obvious though, because the prospect of review in isometric view, not the side, so that there is even a hint of three-dimensionality), the terrain is fairly monotonous, but vivid. Verdict – nothing special, but is of great interest to fans of high-quality and beautiful platformers of its obscurity.
