The WhatsNext verdict
Balancelot is worth a look for players who enjoy oddball physics platformers and deliberately frustrating challenges wrapped in silly medieval humor. Everyone else will likely find its charming premise outweighed by imprecise controls and thin content.
What it does best
A genuinely strange unicycle-jousting premise
A silly medieval world with Monty Python energy
A recognizable storybook-medieval look
What might put you off
Intentionally awkward physics that often feels unfair
Very short and shallow campaign
The setup
What you are walking into
Use your controller or keyboard to balance the clumsy but fully functional unicycle. Thrust the threatening mythical monsters with your sharpened lance as they set on your way to glory. Climbing over the dead enemies with your unicycle may be the last climb you take.
