So, Kingsley's Adventure for #PS1 is a good example of picking a game to play on a whim. I saw the thumbnail, title screen, and a screenshot and I knew I had to play it.
It has a fox with a sword! How could I say no?!

Playing as Kingsley the fox, we are saving the fruit kingdom from Bad Custard, who has stolen the book of magic from the castle.

The game has a lot of charm. From the character models to the environment design, the music. All these things set you up for a good time... Until you start wrestling with the controls. Tanky control in a platformer is a choice I don't agree with. The jumping at times will be your biggest hurdle as it can be difficult to gauge distances.

If the controls don't turn you off, the game itself is a decent little jaunt. It's under baked in places, combat is basic, villages are populated by devoid of additional content besides finding the right person to talk to.

It wasn't a bad way to spend my Sunday.

The box art and the opening title screen of Kingsley's Adventure. It features a fox in a blue tunic with a sword and shield charging the foreground. In the background is a sinister smiling face overlooking Kingsley.
A screenshot from Kingsley's Adventure. Kingsley, a tiny fox, is talking to Queen Adeline, a towering character, saying he will defeat Bad Custard and become a true Knight.
A screenshot from Kingsley's Adventure. Kingsley is in the castle basement, a crazy looking spider is slowly approaching Kingsley. In the room is also a treasure chest.
A screenshot from Kingsley's Adventure. Kingsley is talking to the fearsome No-Beard, a Dolphin Pirate, who is the second most fearsome Pirate in the kingdom!

In 1987, #microhobby magazine reported on the censorship of the Game Over cover in the United Kingdom.

The game's distributor in this country forced Imagine to change the cover "because it was not appropriate for the intended audience."

The two pics were taken in the same magazine in June and in July after the censorship.

Microhobby laments that "British users will never be able to enjoy the enormous charms hidden beneath the opaque logo."
