Golden Force: Limited Edition

About

Golden Force: Limited Edition is a side-scrolling action RPG with platforming elements that blends combat, exploration, and character progression. Play as a squad of mercenaries hired to defend Muscle Island from a demonic invasion. The game alternates between brawling against waves of enemies and navigating labyrinthine levels to uncover loot and secrets. Each character has distinct abilities that let you mix up tactics mid-fight or puzzle through environmental challenges. The story delivers over-the-top tavern banter and escalating stakes as the team pushes deeper into the island’s corrupted zones. The Limited Edition bundles the base game with two physical collectibles: a numbered FuturePak cartridge and a magnet medallion. Both items are exclusive to this release and add tangible value for fans of retro-style packaging. With 4.2/5 stars on user reviews, the game is praised for its responsive combat and charm but criticized for repetitive later levels. The Switch port runs smoothly in handheld mode, making it easy to take on the demon-killing grind anywhere.

Storyline

The Demon King has set his sights on Muscle Island, a hitherto heavenly and peaceful place where life was good. The dark figure has installed his army there and persecutes the population with the help of his generals. Wasting their last coins in taverns, the mercenaries of the dreaded Golden Force take advantage of their last vacation moments when they receive a new contract: to defeat this evil new ruler and reclaim the mountain of gold in his possession. When there is gold and the promise of a good fight, you can count on the Golden Force to save your loaves!
