About Hold Your King

DON'T LOSE YOUR BALANCE

Beware the physics while carrying the King! Your speed, acceleration, and angular momentum directly affect his balance. Every step you take decides the King’s fate and therefore yours.



 

MAKE USE OF YOUR LIMBS
Keeping the King balanced is up to you! Lift the stretcher up or down, rotate it left or right, and use physics to your advantage.



BONK THE KING
Bonk the King to steady him—but he might get angry. Do it at your own risk!



INTERACT WITH KING
King is responsive to his environment, you can manipulate him as you wish. You could be a bit kinder, though.



DO NOT ANGER THE KING
Or be ready for whips and tantrums.



HOLD YOUR KING
Pick up the King and drag him back onto the stretcher. Simple? Think again.




USE THE STRETCHER TO CLEAR YOUR PATH
Use the stretcher to interact with dynamic obstacles and clear your path!

Key Features

Online co-op with friends!

Facial Expressions
Your character reacts to your movement!

Goofy Physics
Every step matters—momentum and balance can save you or send you flying.

Stretcher Control
Lift, lower, and rotate the stretcher to keep the King stable and clear tight sections.

Bonk Control
Bonk the King to steady him (high risk, high reward—he won’t always appreciate it).

Grumpy King
Anger the King and expect chaos—tantrums, whips, and punishment for sloppy teamwork.

Don’t drop the King
Drop him? Scramble to grab the King and get him back on the stretcher before it’s too late.

Intense, Chaotic, Teamwork: Hold Your King!
