Overview

Chariot is a humorous physics-based couch co-op platformer in which a brave princess and her suitor carry a funeral wagon through ancient caves. They must fend off swarms of looters while amassing riches to bury the King's remains in a worthy gold-filled tomb. If only that dead King would keep quiet... The Chariot's large wheels and long tethers allow the heroes to reach higher ground, swing across chasms and perform all sorts of impressive maneuvers. Extract riches from the very walls of the caves in multiple environments, and make your way to the exit by avoiding envious looters or by beating them back as they attempt to steal your hard-earned loot! With skill-testing coordination mechanics and thrilling physics-based stunts required, Chariot will definitely please couch coop enthusiasts as teamwork and cooperation unlocks new possibilities.

Chariot is a decent adventure when you go solo, but an excellent one when you bring a friend. You’ll definitely want to sit a partner down next to you to get the most out of this experience. * The product in this article was sent to us by the developer/company. Guess who's back!!! If you have been here before, you know the basics: lifelong gamer, father, and of course, former certified news monkey.

It’s chaotic fun in a mould that’s largely disappeared since the advent of online gaming but has seen a revival of late with the likes of Towerfall: Ascension. Nevertheless, Chariot is still an engaging single player experience that’s well worth the admission fee.

The game does a great job of constantly ensuring communication and co-operation between players, not just by entrusting both of them with a shared responsibility in protecting the Chariot, but also in the great level design. There are always a huge number of diverging paths in every stage and each route promises a number of collectibles to discover. The puzzles found throughout the environments are also always inventive and challenging without being unfair or too frustrating.

Thought it's a pretty dark narrative for 2D platformer, Chariot doesn't get bogged down by its existential overtones. Most platformers employ the tried and true formula of jumping from side to side and collecting coins, and although one can easily enjoy such a simple diversion, Chariot aims for a much deeper experience.
