🎮 Black Myth: Wukong – A Monkey, A Staff, and Too Many Boss Fights



So you’re thinking of playing Black Myth: Wukong, huh? Well, buckle up, because this game throws you straight into a world where giant monkeys wield magical staffs and ancient Chinese mythology feels like it’s on steroids. But don’t worry – I’m here to give you the real scoop, with a side of laughs. 🐒

🐾 Gameplay: Swing, Smash, Repeat

You play as the “Destined One,” which is basically Sun Wukong’s long-lost cousin who skipped out on the family reunion. Armed with a staff that grows longer than your to-do list and a dodge-roll that’ll make you dizzy, you’re thrown into epic boss fights where every enemy seems to say, “You shall not pass!”

The combat is fun, challenging, and will occasionally leave you screaming, “WHY DO I KEEP DYING?!” But don’t worry – this game is kinder than Dark Souls. You won’t lose your hard-earned experience when you die, and yes, you can pause mid-fight to scream into a pillow or grab a snack. 🍿

🌄 Visuals: Ooh, Shiny!

This game is gorgeous. Unreal Engine 5 brings Chinese temples, lush forests, and mystical beasts to life in a way that’ll make you stop mid-battle just to take a screenshot (before you get walloped by a boss). But watch out – some areas are so big and maze-like, you might get lost and end up fighting a tree thinking it’s the final boss. 🌳👀

📖 Story: Journey to Confusion

Inspired by Journey to the West, the story is deep, mythical, and confusing. If you’ve read the original tale, you’ll love the callbacks. If not, you’ll spend half the time wondering if that weird frog was your friend or trying to eat you. 🐸

✅ Pros

  • Monkey with a stick. What more do you need?

  • Stunning visuals and breathtaking boss designs.

  • Combat that’s challenging but doesn’t make you rage quit (mostly).

❌ Cons

  • Level design: “Where the heck am I now?”

  • Story: Confusing if you didn’t major in Chinese mythology.

  • Occasional moments of “Wait, am I supposed to be dead or is that a cutscene?”

🏆 Final Thoughts: 7 Bananas Out of 10

Black Myth: Wukong is like a kung fu movie, a fantasy novel, and a theme park ride all rolled into one. It’s fun, flashy, and occasionally frustrating, but hey – what game isn’t? Just don’t forget your banana snacks and your patience
