My friends and I have literally never beaten the first level of this game. We have so many hours in it. It's so fucking horseshit. And while other players seem to hate that, I fucking love it. In most games, I avoid leaving things to chance. For the King seems to be built around not only leaving nearly everything to chance, but also to pressure you into taking ridiculous risks. It's a bit like Hotline Miami where the game actively encourages you to get yourself killed because that's just the only way you could possibly win. Playing it safe just means death takes longer to happen. So what this results in is constant prayers to RNGesus which either result in loud cheering or smashing your keyboard in rage. All of this leaves your adrenaline pumping, your brain calculating. You need every single advantage you can possibly get. This game keeps you focused the entire time, which means a lot in a genre that so often turns into mindless grinding for XP. One day, my friends and I are gonna beat that first level. And I'm telling you, we are going to be so fucking alive in that moment. I genuinely believe I'll cry tears of joy.
