The whole Kidd family is upset! Alex’s father, King Thor, is missing, and they suspect he has been kidnapped by Ashra, the mean ruler of the planet Paperock.
Alex speeds to Paperock to investigate, but the creatures of Paperock decide to hinder his efforts and try to keep him away from Sky Castle, Ashra’s hideaway. Luckily Alex knows how to jump, punch and kick his way through the most stubborn of enemies.
The title of the pretty much tells the story in this outdated 2d platform game.
The gameplay can still be fun and you don't have to start all over again with the save anywhere feature.
When you have never played this game it is only interesting from a historic perspective of games, but if you remember when you played this game in the nineties and can't now because there is too much dust on your sega then this is a good buy and much cheaper than the old cartridges.
Alex Kidd In The Enchanted Castle is a game with ambition, but it doesn't quite live up to the standard set by Miracle World. It's not that it's bad, because there are certainly parts that are well designed, but it just has a few too many screws loose that eventually caused the death of the series. I would only recommend this game to fans of really old school games that are looking for that nostalgia factor.
A very light-hearted retro game which has been also optimized for widescreen resolutions. Basically, you are this kid in this enchanted castle... :) You run and jump from one place to another destroying cars and obstacles and collecting coins in the process. Seems easy enough and has numerous occasions where it tests not only your reflexes but also your knowledge in logical puzzles. So, if you're up for some fun that will try and get you closer to the past, check this one out.
A great game when it originally came out now it's just an ok game. While the gameplay itself is quite fun, it's incredibly outdated. The basic gameplay consists of Alex Kidd running around kicking enemies and blocks to get gold. The biggest problem with this game is the stiff controls. Alot of times you can punch an enemy just a second too early and miss resulting in your death. Alex Kidd in the Enchanted Castle is a fun game and for the price I think the controls can be overlooked.
