Fit For a King

I love Ultima IV, and therefore I love this game. Short and sweet, exciting and hilarious all the way.

Fit For a King is less of a simulator and more so a puzzle game about finding all your lost gold so that you may spend it on various things for a "diplomatic" summit to one up your rival(The French). The aesthetic is certainly not for everyone but I personally enjoy the charming art style and music. It is a silly game with some fun easter eggs and achievements to do. I got 100% completion in just over 3 hours so I wouldn't expect a massive game or anything from this but it was a fun way to kill an afternoon. Truth be told I would probably wait for a sale but the game is fun!

A small game that is jam-packed with details, characters, and quests! As a king you really get to do it all and whatever you want! Don't count on enjoying the art work too much, more of exploring the world and finding weird little secrets! Not too shabby of a game, but $10 is probably too much. Get it on sale!

Fit for a King is a cute and funny little retro-style game, though unfortunately quite short. Despite the RPG aesthetic, in practice it plays more like an adventure game. The game world is pretty small, though, and you'll probably spend no more than 4-5 hours on this one even if you explore every nook and cranny and grab all the achievements. IMO it's not quite worth the full price, but I do recommend getting it on sale (you can often find it for 70-80% off). Note: I played this game mostly offline, so that's why my displayed playing time is so short.

This is such an amiable package of charismatic exploration that you can't help but smile the whole way through. Granted, there's such an abundance of secrets and undisclosed objectives that it's hard for the average player to discover it all, but it's presented in a respectable way that one feels satisfied no matter the percentage of completion. Wonderful game

This is a totally fun little game if you can handle the Ultima graphics and commands. There are tons of secrets to find and things to track down to humiliate your rival. Besides that you can do all the kingly things like personally shake down all your citizens for taxes, make yourself pope, execute your wife (or anyone else), and marry your horse and dog as God intended. Besides all the jokes, there is an actual neat game here - just make sure you write down and keep track of all the clues you get, because you're not gonna get any quest pointers! (Also, ignore my hours in game, that was overnight, whoops. To beat the game took me about 4 hours, and they were all good hours. Not 100%, but good enough for me.)

Extremely short and extremely retro -- I'm talking borderline experimental C64 and Amiga games. Once the novelty of executing/marrying anyone and everyone wears off, you basically have a pretty typical adventure game with a surrealist bent to it. There honestly just needs to be more to it: either combat or an inventory system or a branching story or whatever.
