GameOver has tossed up a review of Zuxxex' RPG-flavored strategy game 'KnightShift' ('Once Upon A Knight' in North America). Rating: 61%.
Once Upon A Knight proves that two games in one doesn't necessarily mean more value. This game of a fairy tale prince imprisoned by an evil wizard has two full campaigns to play out -- one as a computer role-playing game and the second as a real-time strategy game. Unfortunately, neither live up to genre expectations, and what the developers managed to create was a RPG/RTS game that is wacky at times but always flawed.
The two campaigns are connected through a common story, but are separated by several years worth of in-game time. No matter what, the game opens with an animated intro that shows the good Prince John being sent off into a planar void by the evil sorceror Valtamand. However, the prince has his faithful allies in his army and in the magician Gallus.
