Battle Kid: Fortress of Peril
It has been fifteen years since the retro world has seen a new platforming title for the good old Nintendo Entertainment System. Enter Battle Kid: Fortress of Peril. While released over a year ago, Battle Kid sold out almost instantly.
Developed by Sivak Games, Battle Kid is available for purchase as an actual cartridge, which is pretty cool for a homebrew title. The official description reads:
“After having uncovered a plot to build a Supermech, you head to an ancient high-tech fortress in an effort to prevent this weapon from being completed. You must navigate through the various sectors of the fortress, while battling its denizens and avoiding its many dangers. Along the way, you will uncover items that will allow progress to new locations of the fortress and grant you new abilities. Over 550 rooms, more than 30 enemy types, and 8 bosses stand between you and victory. Also featured are five difficulty settings and a password system.”
RetroZone, however, reportedly has more of the game for sale. Don’t look any place else. You will likely not find it. It even draws a blank on eBay. Look for it here.
