    Wind-Up Knight is a beautiful, propulsive game whose difficulty only makes it that much more fulfilling.

    Wind-Up Knight is a tough but rewarding running game with excellent production values.

    This game is a perfect blend of well-rounded, bite-sized action that can be picked up and put down comfortably, yet was challenging enough to make me late for work while I had to try just one more level.

    A bafflingly overpraised auto-runner that looks good but soon becomes tiresome.
