Little Samson Overview
Little Samson is an action platformer where the player controls four distinct adventurers summoned to confront a freed ancient evil. The antagonist, Ta-Keed, has escaped imprisonment and defeated the emperor's forces, leading to the assembly of this unique team.
Gameplay revolves around utilizing each character's specific traits to overcome obstacles. The human Samson and the tiny K.O. can both traverse walls and ceilings, while Kikira the dragon can fly briefly and breathe spreading fire. Gamm the rock creature is immune to spikes and can punch powerfully, though he moves slowly. K.O.'s small size grants access to narrow passages, but he is physically fragile.
The initial stage involves separate journeys for each character to the palace, serving as a tutorial for their abilities. After a narrative sequence where all four unite, the player can switch between them at will from a sub-screen. A shared life pool is used, but each character has an individual health meter; if the active character's health depletes, a life is lost. Success requires strategic swapping between the team throughout the adventure.
