You need to be smart about how you attack and how you figure bosses out.Hail to the King: Deathbat handles much like many PlayStation 1 and 2 titles, most notably games like Legacy of Kain with…decent 360 controller support (hey, it works, i'm impressed) and no major fails on the first start after install.Weird controls, seeing as this is a port of a mobile game, the controls might take some time getting used to, for…Why it fits
Check it if you want action, adventure filtered by single-player.
