A Sword, A Forest And Plenty Of Trolls

Troll Slayer keeps things simple. The forest near the kingdom has been overrun, and you’re the knight tasked with putting things right. Getting through it means jumping across dangerous terrain, avoiding deadly traps and taking on different varieties of trolls.

Those enemies don’t all behave in the same way, so charging in with your sword swinging isn’t necessarily the best approach. Learning their attack patterns and choosing the right moment to strike will be key to making progress.

Can You Clear The Forest?

With its pixel art presentation and emphasis on platforming, hazards and enemy encounters, Troll Slayer looks to offer a compact challenge for players who enjoy old-school action games. There’s no elaborate premise to untangle – just a forest full of trolls and a knight who needs to get the job done.

Troll Slayer is available now for £4.19 on Xbox Series X|S (optimised), Xbox One and Windows PC, with each platform offering its own version from the Xbox Store. Basically, pick the one best for you, or take home all three and enjoy triple the Gamerscore and achievements.

If you’re in the mood for a small-scale platforming challenge that puts timing and enemy patterns first, Head Bear Games has a kingdom in need of your sword.

An Xbox gamer since 2002, I bought the big black box just to play Oddworld: Munch's Oddysee. I have since loved every second of the 360's life and am now just as obsessed with the Xbox One and Xbox Series X|S - mostly with the brilliant indie scene that has come to the fore.
