After more than twenty years, finally get Kid Icarus sequel from Nintendo. This is a game first for Project Sora, led by Masahiro Sakurai. Each coffee Kid Icarus: Uprising will get 6 of the AR card is random and stand for 3DS.

Kid Icarus: Uprising began with Pit commanded to stop Medusa Goddess Palutena that will destroy mankind. Pit would later find out that it appears that operates Medusa from behind the scenes.

In Kid Icarus: Uprising, a chapter can be divided into three parts: a water battle, battle ground, and boss battle. In the battle of water will automatically fly Pit, we only handle enough to avoid enemy fire Pit. While the battle ground we can handle a broad Pit. Boss battle owning the same system with the ground battle.

Control in Kid Icarus Uprising is very simple. Use the slide pad to operat the Pit, L to attack, and touchscreen for aiming. I found that with light 3D, aiming feels easier, predicts the distance to the Pit enemies easier. Pit has two kinds of attack, range attack and melee attack. Range attack itself is mode attack, charge attack, and rapid fire. The attack will be automatically turned into a melee attack when attacking close to the enemy.

Each time you defeat an enemy, you will get a heart that can later be used to buy weapons or increase the intensity. Intensity is Difficulty settings that you set before entering the stage . The higher the intensity, the more difficult stage is. But the reward is available the better.

There is also power which you can arrange as you like. Constructing power more or less feels like playing Tetris, you have to arrange blocks of power in space is limited. Power also provided a wide range: there is attack, status ailment, recovery and many other kinds. Power can be activated by pressing the icon in the corner left of the screen touchscreen.

Available weapons in this game there are 9 kinds : blade, claws, palm, cannon, arm, staff, bow, club, orbit ars. Each of these weapons have advantages and disadvantages. Apart obtained from the treasure box on the stage, the weapon can also be obtained by buying weapons, combine weapons or can be obtained also from StreetPass.

and cutscene in Kid Icarus: Uprising is pretty good. Voice acting is good enough to bring the characters to life and the cutscene is pretty cool. During the trip, Pit is always accompanied by the Goddess Palutena that provides the ability to fly to the Pit. Almost always there is humor in the dialogue between two characters, especially when the character is the boss come into the dialogue.

Graph Kid Icarus: Uprising is pretty good, feel and texture detail on the model. Monster designs and the weapons are very interesting and diverse. Project Sora really maximize the 3D features in this game. cutscene, the position of the enemy, and attack the enemy is really optimized for 3D.

Music in this game can be doubted. With composer-composer Motoi Sakuraba famous like, Yuzo Koshiro, Masafumi Takada, Noriyuki Iwadare, Yasunori Mitsuda, and managed to convey the atmosphere of each state of the game is. For example at the stage labyrinth of Deceit, the music really makes us feel like the puzzle is dizzying. So also on the stage desert and space, where the stage desert and feel the atmosphere of the desert on the stage space spaceship feel the atmosphere.

Another thing that is quite unexpected is pretty much a nostalgic element to the game is. Old enemies from Kid Icarus Nintendo version shown bitnya version 8. In fact there are some enemies that play music 8 bit as well.

Kid Icarus: Uprising offers two modes of multiplayer : Light vs. Dark and Free for All. In the Light vs Dark, the team split into two teams, three vs. three: light and dark. This mode is unique because if one team has been depleted energy bar her, the member will be the last living Pit / Dark Pit. The winning team is to beat Pit / Dark Pit opponent. While in Free for All, the six players will be battling each other in an arena. Player who survived last is the winner.
