Gryphon Knight Epic, the debut game from Cyber Rhino Studios, is a side-scrolling shoot-em-up set in a medieval world with you playing as Sir Oliver, a knight riding a gryphon. This is an interesting theme for a genre usually populated by spaceships and flying lolita girls but is this interesting setting spun into an epic for the ages or is it just squandered on a drunken tale that will likely be forgotten?
Neil writes "It first dropped onto Xbox One a whole year again, but now, finally, Gryphon Knight Epic has made an appearance in Europe."
This looked quite interesting but I don't think i'll bother with such other great sidescrollers arriving lately
Review by Clark A.
Shoot ‘em ups have earned a permanent spot in the annals of video game history, but it’s no secret that the genre evades many conventions that characterise the current state of the industry. For most shooters, that’s fine and dandy because they have competent mechanics or serve up creativity in some other aspect. Thus, fans are satiated by the chewy centre of that archetypal candy.
Connected Digital World writes: When a developer uses the word ‘Epic’ in their games name, it immediately says two things to me.
