Honestly, I didn’t see that 2D-3D twist coming at all. What starts out looking like a cute 2D Zelda-like set inside a children’s storybook suddenly transforms into a Toy Story-esque romp where your little squire goes clambering around said child’s little bedroom. It looks like he’ll be able to jump into all manner of other objects round the room, too, including a mug and what appears to be a big plastic chocolates tub. Or maybe it’s this world’s version of Lego. Something circular and conducive to side-scrolling shoot ‘em up-ing anyhow.
Alas, The Plucky Squire isn’t due out onSteamuntil 2023, but in the meantime, why not stick it on your wishlist, eh?
