About this game
KickMaster sends Thonolan on a rescue mission using martial-arts kicks and magic. Experience levels increase his maximum health and magic capacity while adding fighting moves. Defeated enemies throw items into the air, so collecting useful rewards requires moving to catch them. Magic consumes its own points, adding a resource decision beside the kicks. Holding the jump button longer increases jump height. Before setting out, the option screen’s kick demonstrations show moves and their controller inputs, providing a way to study the growing repertoire.
