Review: Fat Princess

Fat Princess brings a unique style of gameplay to a world where downloadable games are becoming as regular as rain in England (that’s alot, in case you were wondering). With a whole mix of different gaming genres thrown together to create something that should be an abomination to the world of online gaming, but actually turned out to work surprisingly well. No matter whether you’re a fan of RPGs (role-playing games), RTS (real time strategy) or even just the occasional TPS (third-person shooter), you’ll find there’s something in Fat Princess that appeals.

Right from the second you get to the main menu and see options like “Play With Yourself” and “Twiddly Knobs” (which means “Options”), you know what kind of Fat Princess is going to be. It’s not afraid to add humour to all the traditional gaming aspects. For instance, the graphics have a cell-shaded, cartoon-esque feel to them which you automatically associate with kids games, however, take the review image above as an example, this really is not just a children’s game.

Playing the game feels quite complex to begin with, it is definitely worth starting by “Playing With Yourself” on “The Legend of the Fat Princess”, which is Fat Princess’ equivalent to a single-player campaign – in actual fact it is just a game against bots in each different game mode. I

On first appearance you will see a lot of machines pumping out different types of hats. These hats are the substance of Fat Princess. Each one represents a different class and upon putting one on your character you will instantly transform into that class, gaining their abilities and weapons.

The classes themselves aren’t just limited to the generic warrior, mage and archer either. There is one of each of these classes in the game, but there are some others too – namely a priest who can heal teammates and a sort of worker/builder class who can gather resources (wood and steel), build structures and upgrade existing buildings.

When a hat machine is upgraded by a worker, each of the hats from that machine gain a second tier class to go with the original. For instance, the workers alternate can throw bombs, the priests can do black magic, which can drain health slowly from enemies, kind of like an anti-priest if you will. I won’t spoil all the different varieties of classes and their alter-egos, but they do all come together really well.

There are a few different game modes to choose from, with objectives ranging from the classic kill limit deathmatch mode to capturing the most outposts and holding them until the enemies counter is depleted. However, the main game mode is “Rescue the Princess”, where each team starts with their rivals princess in their dungeon or jail and strive to free their own princess and return her to the throne. All the while however, they must prevent the enemy from grabbing their princess from your own prison.

The scoreboard is constantly changing in this game, you can get points for pretty much anything that is useful for the team; chopping wood, capturing outposts, healing teammates, killing enemies are just a few of the ways to score points.

Despite some teething problems starting out, which we have been assured will be sorted out, Fat Princess is a brilliant game with solid gameplay, plenty of replay value and is sure to give you many hours of glorious, cake eating fun. For the mid-range price tag it is definitely a must-buy for fans of online multiplayer games. I could go and on about this game, but I just don’t want to spoil the fun so I’ll just give you my score.

Overall Rating 9/10
