How to Play

In Little Samson, your goal is to guide a group of heroes through side-scrolling stages filled with enemies, obstacles, and bosses. You can switch between four characters at any time: Samson the human prince, Kikira the dragon, Gamm the golem, and K.

O. the mouse.

Each hero has unique movement and attack abilities—Samson throws daggers and can climb walls, Kikira flies and breathes fire, Gamm punches and can break certain blocks, while K. O.

sticks to walls and ceilings. Use character switching to overcome specific challenges, like having Kikira fly over gaps or Gamm smash barriers.

Collect power-ups to enhance your health and attack range. The game requires careful resource management, as each character has a separate life bar.

In tense moments, prioritize avoiding damage and swapping to the right hero for the situation. Boss battles demand pattern recognition and exploiting weaknesses with the most suitable character.
