Monkey King: Hero is Back is an adaptation of the 2005 Chinese movie of the same name. Whilst it does have a few problems, it makes up for it in fun and presentation, and if anything is a better rendition of the movie’s story.
From the writer; ‘I spent a solid 9ish hours playing Monkey King and that is important to note because I’m not one to put myself through complete hell. It was enjoyable to a point. If you are a child, have a child, are a Monkey King mega fan or only like to play games about 15 minutes at a time you’ll LOVE this.
However, if you want something more complex and less annoying then you can play literally anything else.’
Monkey King: Hero Is Back is an action/adventure game based on the successful CGI movie made in conjunction with the movie's producers.
Since childhood, the fabled Chinese classical novel of the mythical but mischievous Monkey King aka Journey To The West has been told and retold so many times that it has been an important part of my memories growing up. The writer finds himself drawn into watching each series, movies or even animated adaptations each and every time there is a new one, (sorry Bruce Lee, you come second).
I saw the movie, so that made me not care about this game since its the same story but with lower quality graphics.
