Little King's Story

Little King's Story is a Wii video game made by XSEED and Marvelous. It is an innovative title that seems to grab inspiration from a variety of titles such as Pikmin.

Gameplay
In the game, the player controls protagonist Corobo Bred, who finds a magical crown that grants him the power to control his servants. He can become a king that his civilians appreciates or he can become a tyrant - though it's your duty to make sure that he's efficient. He'll be able to take control of a person by swinging his scepter towards him or her. Following this, they'll quit whatever it may be that they're doing and start to travel behind the king. If a hulking monster starts to attack, then your personal army will raid it and ultimately attempt to kill it, even if it may result in some of your villagers' deaths. If this does occur, then you'll have to tend to their funerals, which Nintendo Power describes as "adorable" and the "cutest funerals ever". And that's not surprising - the game's visuals definitely do have a "cute" vibe to it, which may shadow the depth that it does possess.

In the beginning of the game, you'll only have five other members to your party and a cow. You'll gradually increase the number of members in your party by finding them throughout your kingdom, though you don't necessarily have to use your scepter to command them if you already have enough soldiers.

Each villager has their own unique skill. If you need to destroy a log that's in the way, then you'll want to hire someone who has the skills and tools to do so. As in Pikmin, it's best to have a wide variety of army members and choose which ones to use during battles.
