Dufniall Posted December 10, 2019 Share Posted December 10, 2019 I'm updating Treasure Trove right now, so I'm guessing the update is finally here! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drahkon Posted December 11, 2019 Share Posted December 11, 2019 (edited) The price for Treasure Trove has been upped in the respective stores. Some retailers, however, still sell the download code for 25€ (or your local equivalent) in case you wanna get it.

Yeah same here, but I think it can be mostly avoided if you don't enjoy it. The gameplay itself is spot on though, I like the dash and spin mechanism. Love King Knight as well, how he thinks he's the big shot and the way he conversates with his mom. I'm close to finishing the first boss now, can't wait to play more of it. Tried Showdown for a bit as well, was expecting it to be online but I guess it's only local multiplayer? May dive in the story mode after finishing King of Cards.

MindFreak Posted December 12, 2019 Share Posted December 12, 2019 (edited) So this* is still a free update on the Wii U version of the game, right? I got Plague Knight for free there so I hope King of Cards is as well. *King of Cards, not Showdown Edited December 12, 2019 by MindFreak Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Damn, my wife is going to be away tonight and I am tired of playing LM3 so thought this would be a good occasion to dust off the Wii U and get into this.

Glen-i Posted December 12, 2019 Share Posted December 12, 2019 Didn't realise it was a couple of days afterwards! Well, I'd say time to dust off my 3DS, but I still use it regularly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
killthenet Posted December 14, 2019 Share Posted December 14, 2019 Just finished the final boss, overall I think it's the weakest of the bunch but its still pretty damn good. King Knight is such a pompous prick, I love his awful treatment of all of the other characters. The ending was probably the best part, totally fits with the other entries. I hope Yacht Club move on to something else after this though, it seems like their involvement in Shovel Knight Dig is pretty minimal and it would be nice to see them tackle another style or franchise.

I read on their Twitter that they are first focussing on something else, but will definitely return to Shovel Knight later on but not for now. So I'm really curious to see what they are coming up with next. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aaaand I bought it Seems like a no brainer for that price, to be honest. Lots and lots of content. I've only played Shovel of Hope so there's quite a lot of new content for me to enjoy. Will definitely play the original again first, though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drahkon Posted December 28, 2019 Share Posted December 28, 2019 Couldn't sleep much last night, so I decided to finish Shovel of Hope. Think it was my third time now after playing it on PS4 and PSVita. Still a wonderful 2D platformer. Yacht Club Games really put a lot of love and polish into their game and it shows Also started Plague of Shadows for the very first time. Not sure what I think of it, yet. I don't like that Plague Knight moves as if he's always on ice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dufniall Posted December 28, 2019 Share Posted December 28, 2019 I finished King of Cards yesterday. A very entertaining campaign, the levels are a bit smaller and every level has one new element/gimmick it introduces but that makes it perfect to pick up and play. Plague of Shadows still needs to be played, but I have the same issue as @drahkon, his moves and playstyle are just not as good as Shovel/Spectre/King. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The thing is: Plague Knight's moveset is actually pretty cool in itself, it just doesn't work with levels and enemies which are designed for precise actions. Levels would need a bit of a rework to make his "floatiness" shine. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But it's oh so satisfying once you do and start doing nonsense like this. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ronnie Posted February 7, 2020 Share Posted February 7, 2020 Enjoying King of Cards a lot. It’s also reminding me how much I prefer chip tune and N64 MIDI music to the modern orchestrated stuff. Jake Kaufman is a genius. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jonnas Posted February 19, 2022 Share Posted February 19, 2022 Alright, I've been comparing prices for Treasure Trove, and something struck me as odd: why is the 3DS version 10 Euro cheaper? Is there something missing from the 3DS version, or were Yacht Club games just cool enough dudes to make it cheaper there? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is there something missing from the 3DS version, or were Yacht Club games just cool enough dudes to make it cheaper there? Amazingly enough, neither. Treasure Trove is actually worse value on the 3DS then the original release! So no, Yacht Club was very uncool in that regard. If you bought the original game, you got the other three campaigns as free updates. Once Treasure Trove was released, it replaced the original version with a more expensive Treasure Trove that added nothing. Compared to the other versions though. The 3DS one has great 3D effects and the touch screen allows for quick item switching. It's also super portable! It's probably one of the best versions, in my opinion. Cheaper, more QoL features, and easy to play on a train. However, it is missing the multiplayer focused Shovel Knight Showdown, so keep that in mind.
