Description

King’s Bounty: Armored Princess is a sequel to the critically acclaimed King’s Bounty: The Legend. Players take on the role of Princess Amelie who travels around the world of Teana and searches for the renowned knight, and her mentor, Bill Gilbert. This new world of King’s Bounty: Armored Princess is full of mysteries and dangers. The new character, the Princess, will encounter horrible creatures, huge monstrous bosses and a new race, the bloodthirsty Lizards. As in the multi-award winning game on which this sequel is based, the player has many options to resist these new enemies. Various new skills and characteristics of Amelie as well as her chance to fly will help her overcome the hordes attacking the kingdom. The Princess is also accompanied by a Domestic Dragon, at the very beginning small and amusing, but its abilities develop steadily until it becomes an incredible ally. He will do his best to protect the Princess during the battles, starting with easy blows and treasure hunting and finishing with battle rage and volcano summoning. [1C Company]

The Armored Princess is only a quarter shorter than the original game. How long ago have you played a stand-alone expansion that takes 30 hours to beat it at a normal difficulty?95Absolute Games

If you’re not a fan, buy the original, become a fan, then buy this. [Jan 2010, p.85]86PC Gamer
Fact is, I lost a lot of sleep due to Armored Princess, and gleefully played until the wee hours of the morning so despite its familiarity, it’s impossible to not recommend it.83GameShark

Beautiful and bug-free RPG strategy scores with fairytale graphics, catchy gameplay, gripping quest scenarios, attractive boss fights and a really long life span. [Dec 2009]80LEVEL (Czech Republic)
It may be derivative, but King’s Bounty: Armored Princess is still an outstanding strategy role-playing game.80GameSpot

A solid standalone expansion to one of my favorite time-sinks, Armored Princess has enough new goodies and little bits of polish to make for quite an enjoyable time.75Gaming Nexus
King’s Bounty: The Armored Princess is a great game if you fall into its target demographic. Those looking for something more than a single-player strategy/RPG hybrid should look elsewhere.70Gamer Limit
The first time I played it, I thought it was terrible. Bad story line, clunky game-play, too much needless dialogue, etc. etc. Reading the other reviews here, I’m willing to give it another shot.50krstnlndsy
