Young Thor Mini – Action Mythology

Follow the link for a video trailer and the full review on Joystiq.
I will be getting this game so that I can show bitesize pieces of History and Mthology to our next door neighbours kid.

clipped from www.joystiq.com A side-scrolling brawler, Young Thor is instantly accessible, but with enough depth to avoid making the experience too repetitive. While it’s tempting to simply mash the Square button, developer Frima has done a good job of scaling the experience, introducing new enemies that demand new strategies. My own play style evolved as I learned to add more jumps and dodges while chaining Thor’s lightning magic into combat. You won’t need to grind to beat Young Thor, but you might find yourself revisiting earlier stages for the fun of it — and to find some of the well-hidden treasures, which grant powers like double jumping, health and magic regeneration.
