Kid Icarus: Uprising was developed by Project Sora for Nintendo-based consoles. Kid Icarus: Uprising was the last launch of the franchise in 2012 March for the Nintendo 3DS. The original games in the franchise are much older.

The first Kid Icarus game was launched in 1988 with a PC disk version and an NES (Nintendo Entertainment System) cartridge version. The second game in the franchise was released in 1991, making Kid Icarus: Uprising the first release in the franchise after 20 years.

You play a character that is a servant of the Goddess, destroying the evil the exists in the world.

Rating

I gave Kid Icarus: Uprising a rating of 8/10 for several reasons. Kid Icarus: Uprising has a lot of content to explore. The story was fantastic and the graphics were great for the time of launch. Now nine years after the launch, the graphics no longer live up to what they used to.

There are some flaws in the game, such as getting used to the controls and mechanics. This game has a Greek Mythology aspect comparable to Assassin's Creed Odyssey. With similar gameplay and complex mechanics as in Dishonored 2.

Pros:

  • Many weapon types with their unique strengths
  • Excellent unique game mechanics
  • Great story
  • Large map with a lot to uncover

Cons:

  • Unnatural controls
  • The gameplay becomes repetitive after a while
  • Camera positioning
