Ki is love, Ki is life.

I challenge anyone to complete Quest Of Ki without savestate scumming. I've done it, but it is very difficult.

Quest of Ki, nice game that almost becomes a puzzle due to the odd controls. The first 60 floors are pretty straight forward and can be skipped on through to level 61, at which point the game becomes hard as diamond dicks. It's incredibly addictive because you always feel like you're about to figure it, just one more life, one more try...

No game challenged on GCCX has captivated me like Quest of Ki. That game is fucking ridiculous, I understand what they meant by "hidden masterpiece". The controls are just dodgy enough that you feel like you could master them. The levels are designed so well and yet so cruel; there's usually only one way to complete a stage and you have to perform the actions perfectly. The first 60 stages are nothing, the 40 special stages are the real test. I'm honestly amazed Arino did as well as he did. I gave up on floor 79, where he stalled for several hours.
