Play King of Kings (Japan) Online
In King of Kings, explore side-scrolling areas, defeat Roman soldiers, rescue captured Christians, and unlock prison doors using your sword and cross.
King of Kings is a 1988 Nintendo Entertainment System game developed and published by Namco. It came out during a time when the NES library was expanding in all directions, including games with unusual themes. This one stands out for its biblical setting, which wasn't common on the platform.
You control a hero, moving screen by screen through side-scrolling areas and top-down maps. Your main goal is to rescue captured Christians by defeating Roman soldiers and finding keys to open prison doors. You use a sword for close combat and can also collect a cross that acts as a projectile weapon. The pacing is methodical, and the difficulty can feel uneven, with some enemy patterns requiring precise timing. It feels like a rough but earnest attempt to blend action and exploration with a solemn theme.
