Ultimately, The Legend of Tianding is a very well balanced and enjoyable game that can be beaten in a few short hours. Combined with the affordable price point, this is an easy one to recommend, especially since it’s a really impressive first outing by the developer. Here’s hoping it’s not the last such historical adventure by Creative Games and Computer Graphics Corporation and Neon Doctrine.

The Legend of Tianding manages to establish itself as a very high quality platform game. With an elaborated oriental atmosphere and carefully built combat, it is a practically perfect game in what it proposes and a mandatory title for any player, without exceptions.

Although it falls short and some systems, such as the upgrade system, have little weight, The Legend of TianDing is a fun and intense experience.

The Legend of Tianding is a great adventure that celebrates a charismatic character from Taiwanese folklore. Agile pace and a good variety of challenges are spread throughout the stages, and combat excites with its versatility — it's fun to launch enemies into the air and steal their weapons to create different combos. Other than that, the colorful universe captivates with great visuals inspired by Chinese manga, charismatic characters and a light interpretation of an important historical moment in the country. The game only suffers a bit with pacing issues and limited opponent diversity, but the fast-paced action helps to minimize these issues. Otherwise, I highly recommend The Legend of Tianding.

The Legend of Tianding is a charming title in every way and distinguishes itself well from other similar titles. The gorgeous presentation, the story of its Taiwanese hero and its engaging combat, have made this a good choice for everyone looking for a different 2D action-platformer title. Although the game is not without problems, the definitive winner here is the excellent combat that never gets old.

CGCG and Neon Doctrine has a great foundation to build upon gameplay and engine-wise in the far future; The Legend of Tianding is a great debut with a fresh take on a Taiwan historical setting and some fun-yet-familiar gameplay.
