But Majo says that it was funnier in that case and added to the challenge. A miss in that game could mean having to do large sections of the stage all over again. It was apparently supposed to be a 15-minute game, but Majo may have stumbled onto a valuable lesson in just how stubborn people can be.Ī previous Majorariatto release called Golfing Over It with Alva Majo is another game where players can lose their progress at any moment. When asked how they feel about seeing their players suffering, Majo said, “I also suffer a lot!” Majo really feels for players who have spent a ton of time pulling the sword only to drop it in the final moments and have their efforts be for nothing. Majo is also worried about players’ time saying, “they are wasting more than one hour pulling it out and that is more than enough!” As the game was meant to be small and experimental, Majo considers it complete and currently only plans on fixing bugs.Īs we mentioned earlier, pulling out the sword can be grueling. When asked if they have plans to increase the limit, Majo stated, “I’m considering it, but I have no plans to do so at the moment,” worrying that if it’s raised even higher, only cheaters would be able to play. Majo thought players would wait for the sword to shrink back down and try again later, but instead they remained stubborn and refused to give up. “Not at all!” Majo replied, “I thought it was a ludicrously high number that would never be reached.” The game also has a mechanic where the sword gets shorter as time passes without anyone pulling it out. We started by asking if they expected for the difficulty limit to be reached so quickly. How did the developers feel about this? We reached out to Majorariatto and the studio’s founder Alva Majo was gracious enough to answer our questions. After just one day of being available, the sword had already grown to its max difficulty level of 10,000. The game quickly became popular on Steam having over 2,200 concurrent players right when it launched ( SteamDB).

Some players can even be seen on social media saying it took over 30 minutes just to pull it off. The game also supports multiplayer, and if another player pulls out the sword before you do, the sword becomes longer and heavier. If you let go of your grip in the process, it’s back to square one.

You must click on the sword to grab it while lifting and continue to do so for a long period of time. If you manage to pull out the sword, you will be crowned the king. You place your mouse cursor over the handle, grab the sword, and lift. In The one who pulls out the sword will be crowned king, your task is to remove a sword from a stone.
