If there's one thing you can say about mobile developer AppSir, it's that their games are always worth checking out. From our glowing review of Spooky Pixel Hero to their latest hit, Climb Knight, AppSir consistently delivers unique indie experiences that resonate with players. Climb Knight, a quirky one-bit platformer, has not only captured the attention of gamers but also pleasantly surprised its creators with its warm reception.
In celebration of this success, AppSir is rolling out a major update for Climb Knight on February 25th, and the best part? It's completely free! This update promises to enrich the gameplay with three new one-bit minigames and introduces a mysterious advisor character, reminiscent of Apple Newton shareware. Given AppSir's track record with spooky and engaging releases, there's likely more to this advisor and the new gameplay than meets the eye.
