  The opinion of a Dad on a budget. Who here loved Super Mario 2? Did you love playing as Peach? If you answered yes to those questions then this game is for you. If you have never played those games or if you are too young to know what I am talking about then this game is still for you. Amazing Princess Sarah is a retro platformer with a modern soundtrack that pays homage to the much underrated Super Mario Brothers 2. The level design is tough but not impossible and the bosses are fun a quirky. There is also a surprising variety of baddies with cool powers. My criteria for a good budget game is 1 hour of fun for every $1 I paid. This is a $5 game and I am pretty sure I will get at least 10 of fun out of this one. So if you are looking for a super fun game pick this one you will thank me. Please check out my gameplay video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DoX0TBHjn9A I cover cheap games on my podcast Steam on the Cheap fell free to subscribe to find out what budget games are worth your time.

  Fans of 2D platformers ought to enjoy this, as you take the role of pixelated busty Princess Sarah to stab c*nts and throw their corpses at other c*nts, all in the hopes of rescuing her father the King who seems to have taken a liking to assorted busty demonettes. Puzzles are easy enough, but the platforming can get a bit tricky, with plenty of traps to get in your way, as well as c*nts who will love knocking you around. The first stage was pleasantly nostalgic of Castlevania, as well as some of the boss designs. Also, those damn bats are almost as pesky as those Medusa Head c*nts whose purpose seems to be making the player scream and curse. The music in Amazing Princess Sarah is charming enough, with ambiant tunes playing while you explore various environments, and the soundtrack kicks it up to more rockin' tunes when battling it out with a boss. Definitely a recommended purchase, particularly for those who enjoy 2D platformers where stabbing and slashing annoying demon b*stards is a must.

  Hey, if you wanted another game in the vein of Akane the Kunoichi*, this title is for you. Otherwise, it's a rather slow-paced beat-em-up with low end RPG mechanics tacked on. You lift things and throw them to do damage, because your sword attack will always do minimum amounts. A clever mechanic: enemy corpses can be lifted and thrown, and each tends to have a special effect. (Archers explode in a spray of arrows, fireball enemies launch old-Castlevania Holy Water style projectiles, etc.) The problem is this is a neat trick in an unfun game. I can't recommend it. * You don't.

  I'm not gonna lie, when I looked at videos of the game in action it didn't look great. I do like retro-style platformers, though, so I put it on my wishlist and when it got a good discount I eventually bought it, not expecting much. Since my expectations were pretty low, I ended up enjoying Amazing Princess Sarah more than I thought I would overall. The box art/title screen is a great-looking portrait of the protagonist, but that's the only time we see art of that level of quality in the game. Sarah's sprite is squat and frumpy, with 80's poofy hair and a terrible run animation. The level environments are blocky and generally uninspired (although I did like the parallax effect in the doorways in the first level). The enemy sprites are fairly generic, featuring a limited number of enemy types with a few color swaps for stronger versions. The bosses are OK-looking, but after the first boss seems to imply there's a bizarre psychosexual body horror theme, the rest of the bosses end up looking fairly generic. The music is inoffensive but not particularly noteworthy (although I admit I played much of the game with the volume low while YouTube videos played in the background). While I do appreciate that much of the game looks like a SNES game, it looks like an effort from a lower-tier studio. But presentation isn't everything. Amazing Princess Sarah is an action-platformer where you can slash enemies with your sword and pick up their bodies to throw at other enemies. In a clever gimmick, different enemy types will have different effects when thrown, so a thrown archer enemy will burst into a scatter of arrows that damage enemies below, and a thrown fire lady will generate flames that spread to the left and right. This adds at least a little bit of strategy and reason to pay attention to how you use your abilities. Unfortunately, there is a little bit of jank when it comes to how the game controls. There is a slight delay from when you press attack to when you throw something, and if you try to throw something just as you're landing from a jump you can accidentally cancel your throw. I've also noticed a few times where pressing attack didn't result in a throw when it should have, which was annoying. Sometimes you'll pick something up, get hit by an enemy a fraction of a second before you throw it (making you drop it), pick it up again and then instantly get hit again, leading to a frustration loop. But the quirks can be gotten used to, and it is satisfying to get into a "kill one monster, use its corpse to kill the next monster, use that corpse to kill the next monster, etc" groove. It actually doesn't take too long to play through all the game's levels (6 in all) and rescue the King, but one thing the game does surprisingly well is entice you to keep playing after that point. Once the game is beaten, you unlock a New Game +, where you can keep your level (killing enemies gains you experience and gaining levels increases your max HP and makes your attacks stronger) and re-play the game with a new gimmick and color scheme for Sarah's sprite. The second quest, for instance, features a "ghost" of Sarah that follows you around the level and damages you if you touch her. The third quest simulates being drunk by constantly rocking the screen back and forth. I won't list them all, but these changes to gameplay add a little spice to the experience and feature some surprises. The game teases you with a true last boss you can only fight in the last New Game + mode, and I might not have had the patience to make it to that point, but the achievements are pretty well-designed to all be achievable if you pay attention to what you're doing and are spaced apart enough to only become unlockable as you progress through multiple playthroughs. I'll admit I'm more likely to forgive a game's flaws if I know my patience will lead to full achievement completion. A psychological trick to be sure, but one I find genuinely satisfying. So while Amazing Princess Sara doesn't do any one thing very well and isn't particularly noteworthy, it does have some retro charm and it does reward you for sticking with it, so I would ultimately recommend it to fans of 16-bit platformers. And if you wait for a sale you can pretty much get it for pocket change, which is nice.

  First off let's get the obvious out of the way. You look at the title-screen for this game and what do you see? A Princess. That's right, Sarah is a Princess, she's got the tiara, that's her castle in the background, and she's the daughter of a king. Now that we're done establishing the obvious let's talk about the game. PLOT: The King has been kidnapped by liliths, are you a bad enough princess to save the king? What makes Sarah so amazing is that she lifts. No really, she can hoist furniture as well as corpses over her head and toss them around. She also has a sword, which is used to make corpses. Depending on the type, enemy corpses have different properties when they're thrown. The most devastating are the liliths, as their bodies are highly volatile and damage everything on-screen. There are five stages, five bosses, a few hundred enemies, a bunch of checkpoints. I did the math and came to the following conclusion: getting through this game should be easy peasy lemon squeezy. Turns out the math was wrong, Amazing Princess Sarah isn't that easy (that didn't sound right). This isn't Super Meat Boy, let alone I wanna be the Boshy, but the enemies do hit hard, pits are on the prevalent side, and you have to make do with a fairly limited pool of health. Candles hold life-replenishing hearts, but uh...they restore 2 HP. Sarah can also level-up, which adds....2 HP. Seriously though she also gets stronger, allowing her to do more damage with her throws and sword. The first play-through is liable to be a bit of a struggle. Eventually however things start to click. Enemies operate by specific rules. They don't attack unless they're facing you, so you can sneak up behind them with murderous intent. Archers only fire where you're standing, so move an inch and watch that arrow pass you by. You'll even figure out the trick to avoiding the stage 5 boss as he stomps around. Holding onto a corpse for the right situation can also prevent a headache or two. But that's not enough I'm afraid, you have to play New Game+ if you want to end the lilith menace once and for all. Hey, New Game+, play through the game again with all your level-ups? It's going to be Weekend at Bernie's! Well yeah, it is, except you're Bernie. There are multiple NG+ modes, and they get more difficult as you progress. In the first one, an invincible ghost follows you around. In the second , you're drunk, and it looks like your castle is on a boat in the middle of a storm. The third time around you receive a sweet double-jump, but get slapped with a stringent time-limit. Fourth time around? Your sword is only good for killing bats, and bats are lousy weapons. At this point I'm just doing my best to skip past enemies. I still have a few more play-throughs to go, but they all sound even worse. Amazing Princess Sarah is a follow-up to Akane the Kunoichi, same engine and everything. In every aspect it's an improvement. The controls are less slick, there's a better sense of challenge, and it's less repetitive. Yes, even though I've played through this game 4.6 times it's less repetitive than a game I played through once*. Some parts of the game can be frustrating, mainly when it involves picking up an object, hurling it, and it collides with a low ceiling instead of a monster. There are a couple other issues, namely crashes (at the 5th boss usually), and the stage 4 music is LOUD. This is a good game. Just do yourself a favor and look past the fact that she's a princess. Is it really that big a deal? *If you're going to be that guy and check my Steam achievements, I played through the Xbox Live Indie Games version of Akane the Kunoichi. I even got all of those freakin' kimonos.

  Unlike most i didnt buy this game because TITS.... Don't look at me like that i'm seriouse.... OKAY OKAY the tits played a minor part in the purchase of this game. Okay this game feels like it could be fun if it was executed better in my opinion. The unfairness of the game doesnt stem for the game being difficult it self, its slightly challenging.. but because of physics and the controls and the RNG of the bat spawns and the sometimes completly unresponsive controlls, this game becomes one of the hardest games to play. BUT if you can look past those problems there is a fun game hiding with in the clevage.... i mean flaws but who am i kidding we all know why people bought this game Word of the Review : TITS

  The controls are sluggish. As a consequence, you keep dying over and over and over again. Not because you suck, but because the Princess doesn't jump when her feet are clearly on the ground, or because she doesn't turn around fast enough to hit that bat that just conveniently appeared right behind you. The difficulty wouldn't be so aggravating if the controls were responsive. Super Meat Boy this is not.

  [i]Amazing Princess Sarah[/i] is a major technical improvement over Haruneko's first game, [i]Akane the Kunoichi[/i] -- but it's not nearly as fun. The biggest problem is that Haruneko spent too much time slicking up their game engine and not nearly enough designing interesting levels for their new product. The stages are generic, overly long, and too claustrophobic for Sarah's genuinely cool throwing attack to shine. Extra emphasis on "generic": without exception, the levels are cramped and twisty pseudo-mazes that vary only in length and color. Thankfully, the short main campaign ended just as boredom began to grip me in earnest. I wasn't about to go for the "true" ending, which requires you to play through the same bland levels about 12 times with the added aggravation of various wacky handicaps (no sword, drunk filter, etc.) [i]Sarah[/i] is not truly bad though, it's simply middle-of-the-road. It's still enjoyable enough to spend a few bucks on if you are a platform-lover (it kept me amused on my stationary bike a good three sessions). I was just really disappointed with this since I loved the mildly glitchy but well-designed [i]Akane[/i]. Perhaps Haruneko's next game will be something really special since their engine is all polished up and ready to go.

  "Skill why you play that game? Isnt that a gurly game?" I really liked Akane the Kunoichi and while looking on the store I found Amazing Princess Sarah which was also made by Haruneko Entertainment. So I thought to myself "Lets buy this game dude!". Unlike some other people who have posted bad reviews about this game I quickly switched the default controls into something more realistic because I can honestly say that the default controls were really bad. Best way to play it is to use a Xbax controller anyways. This game pretty much blew my mind on so many levels of happiness and frustration. The game is surprisingly fun to play and will pretty much kick your ass over and over again. In this sidescroller you play as Princess Sarah and need to save your father(The King) from the demon mistress Lilith. Sarah's main weapon is a sword. The button can be tapped fast to multiple fast hits. Sarah also has the ability to pick objects and fallen enemies up and throw them. There are 5 castle levels and each end with a big epic boss fight. The levels contains your standard enemies in the form of skeletons, zombies, flying demon chicks(They are hot), dudes that walk back and forth while dropping bombs, Big dudes that walk really slow unless they see you, flame sprite chicks that throw fire, archer dudes that shot arrows through the walls and ground, ghosts that walk around in armor, some flying ghost thing that you cant hit with your sword and those BATS THAT FLY ALL OVER THE FUCKING PLACE! The enemy and level layout is planned really well and killing an enemy makes it possible to pick their body up and throw at other enemies. Throwing some enemies like for example the flaming sprite chick will cause a fire attack to hurt the enemies that it hits. There is sort of a rpg element because get xp from killing enemies and you can level up which makes you gain +2 health points to your health bar. The game reminds me alot of Castlevania: Symphony of the night the way the game pauses for a moment when you level up and the design is simulair. You can also break candles to get hearts out of them to recover your health. Since my last reviews ive gotten some real constructive critisim that I will take use of now. So I will mention the Pros and Cons ^^. Pros: Female protagonist Variety in levels Really epic and fitting music on some levels Epic boss fights Great gameplay Unique gamemodes that you can unlock after you beat the game. Cons: Healthdrops(Hearts) recover 2 hp. The music fades out to nothing before fading back in. To short recovery time after being hit. Some huge objects can be throw far and others not. I have still not fully beaten the game since when you beat it the first time you unlock a new gamemode and after beating the game on that gamemode you unlock another gamemode and Im on the 5th gamemode so far and there is 2 more that I have yet to unlock so I guess its 7 gamemodes in total. Each of these gamemodes gives you a new challenge by adding a twist to the game. Some of these gamemodes adds a positive twist as well. Often when I start this game up or simply when im just playing it people ask me "Skill why you play that game? Isnt that a gurly game?" and other times people mention the boob art on the title screen like "Woah Skill its that boobgame!". Please dont base your judgement on names or apperences. Sure there are as a matter of fact boob physics on Sarah and even the enemies in the game. But lets not attract the videogame journalists shall we? I give this game a 8/10
