Lloyd the Monkey 3: Judgement Day

About

Lloyd the Monkey 3: Judgement Day is a side-scrolling RPG that mixes platforming, combat, and character progression. You follow Lloyd and Lura as they reunite to stop Scholz, a villain exploiting parallel timelines to reshape the galaxy. Gameplay bounces between fast-paced action sequences, turn-based battles, and exploration across surreal levels. Upgrades and gear customization let you tailor playstyles, while environmental puzzles add variety to the combat-driven core. The story leans into high-stakes drama, with choices affecting outcomes in later acts. Meyer Games’ third entry raises the stakes from its 2022 predecessor, expanding the universe with complex lore and deeper mechanics. The art style remains vibrant but matures with darker, more dynamic settings. Early access players note the combat can feel repetitive at times, but the final third delivers a tense, emotional payoff. With a runtime of 15, 20 hours and optional challenges, it’s a meaty sendoff for the series. Launching in July 2024, it’s shaping up as a solid pick for fans of narrative-driven action games.

Storyline

Two years have passed since Lloyd and Lura defeated Kronos and his Dark Gorillas, seemingly once and for all, and the duo have gone their seperate ways. However, the villain Scholz is ripping his way through countless lives in order to complete a decade-spanning plan to conquer the universe once and for all. The final battle is about to begin, and the blood shed at the end of it all will sow the seeds of a new beginning.
