Compare & Compre Chaves de CD Bard's Gold XBOX

The game is not one of the tricky 2d-platformer games that made the genre. Most of the puzzles are quite easy and the timer ruins most of the fun. The gameplay itself is fun and tricky at some points.

Bard’s Gold, while simple in theory, plays with a bit more difficulty, and though you may want to turn your TV down to avoid the uninspiring soundtrack, it is well worth its price of $4.99.

It’s a fun and rewarding experience given the difficulty that it brings due to it’s 90s platformers inspiration. However, for the price, you could do a lot worse...

When it was all said and done, this pixel drenched platformer really surprised me. For $4.99 you get an incredible challenge. Think about it, a game cheaper than a fast food value meal that provides you an experience that is fresh, challenging, and very rewarding. Sure it has a fortune cookie for a story, there is no training to get you up to speed on the gameplay mechanics, and some of the later levels are downright rage inducing, but given its price you can't really beat its simplicity and content for the asking price.

There are elements of Bard’s Gold which are worth hanging on to for future projects – the interest in secrets (such an important aspect of gameplay, and in need of revival too), the willingness to challenge players. The rest can be put to one side in the “trial and error” pile.

The game takes many hours to complete because you have to master each level and vanquish the boss. In spite of all this, it’s still a lot of fun and challenging.

Its bright, innocent aesthetic gives it unmistakable charm, the uneventful game play in Bard’s Gold doesn’t let me justify a rating higher than “Average.”

Bard's Gold is decent. The gameplay is good enough, but many will be driven away by the high level of difficulty in the opening stages, especially with a few unfair elements at play.

Bard's Gold is a game with great balancing, a functional structure and a lot of secrets to find. It's simple and immediate, but it works and pushes the player to the limit without ever frustrating him.

Its simplistic approach has little to offer that you won’t find in dozens of other titles, many of which include that something extra that makes them stand out.
