- Chariot amounts to a remarkable accomplishment, with Frima Studio displaying a perfect understanding of the nuances necessary to build an enticing co-operative experience. Remaining just as enjoyable to tackle solo, it is with a helping hand that Chariot truly shines as a reminder that shared adventures can be as equally treasured.
Alex Seedhouse · Feb 25, 2015 Reviewed on Wii URead full review - Chariot is not for the faint of heart, it's a game that requires patience and a slightly stubborn nature to stick with, whether in co-op or single player. Although initially often frustrating, you do grow to embrace the challenging nature of Chariot.
Lewis Childs · Jan 12, 2015 Reviewed on Wii URead full review - It's a unique take on the physics-based platformer that feels fresh and inspired. While the overt focus on co-op might make it less appealing to the solo gamer, it's still a worthy adventure to embark on even if you're all alone. After all, you still have the ghost of the king, even if he won't return your high fives.
Neal Ronaghan · Jan 09, 2015 Reviewed on Wii URead full review - Chariot is one of the better platformers I’ve played of late. Played on your own, it is a good and challenging affair, but working in a pair pushes it up a few notches. The game itself is pretty large and it is likely you won’t see everything on your first go, since exploration is key in Chariot and you are encouraged to roll off the beaten path to discover additional secrets. A few issues could be addressed but overall Chariot is worth your time if you like a good puzzle platformer.
Aran Suddi · Nov 06, 2014 Reviewed on PS4Read full review - It is a very beautiful title. A tad repetitive but considering it's free right now on Xbox Games with Gold I'd suggest everyone give this a go, no matter who you are.
Tabitha Dickerson · Oct 15, 2014 Reviewed on XB1Read full review - As much as Chariot wants to charm you with a jaunty, medieval score and bright, cartoonish aesthetic, the journey through rolling hills and meadows can still be soured by the wrong companionship. ...Chariot's constant stream of devious, brain-bending obstacles, and the sense of accomplishment you get when you and/or a friend persevere are enough to earn a recommendation, with the caveat that you'll have to deal with one awful, squeaky, rotten third wheel along the way.
Justin Clark · Oct 15, 2014 Reviewed on PS4 - Moreover, the release’s visuals are simply beautiful and very well detailed. ...Characters are charming and nicely designed, while environments do a great job of depicting the setting. In all, it’s very appealing to the eye, and slightly reminiscent of Rayman’s UbiArt visual style. ...Chariot is quite the surprise. Its endearing style, smart design, and intuitive gameplay really hooked us, and we ended up having great fun in both single player and co-op.
Marcello Apostolico · Oct 10, 2014 Reviewed on PS4Read full review - Chariot is a great addition to my co-op game library, but alone it becomes tiresome.The physics are really new and figuring out the puzzles is entertaining. It has a lot to offer with 25 massive levels, and high replayability with alternate entrances and exits, collectibles, and speed run challenges for each level. The scope of Chariot is much larger than I would have initially imagined, but trying to take on everything it includes can be exhausting.
Dyani Wood · Oct 06, 2014 Reviewed on PS4Read full review - Even though I probably won’t bring a friend over for a cooperative experience on Chariot, the game still excels as a single-player adventure. Throwing a moving coffin into the platforming mix brings an entirely different element to this well worn genre. After years of arbitrarily leaping from one stage to the next, now I’ll have to think before I jump. Even if it means taking orders from a deceased, vainglorious king, this Chariot is a ride that’s definitely worth taking.
Greg Srisavasdi · Oct 03, 2014 Reviewed on XB1Read full review - In the end, Chariot is one of the best cooperative gaming experiences we’ve ever had. It’s immensely rewarding, abundantly creative, and the sense of accomplishment that it instills within the player will lead to high-fives being thrown around the room on a regular basis. You will harbor feelings of contempt when player two unintentionally pulls you off that hard-to-reach ledge that took five minutes to reach, followed by moments of utter gratitude when they latch on at the last second and save you and the chariot from falling out of view.

About the game
Trailers & Screenshots:
Chariot is the story of a princess whose task is to lay her father’s remains in his final resting place. With the help of her fiancé, she has to take this heavy chariot holding the king’s remains through underground mazes in order to reach a sepulcher fit for His Majesty.
However, the king’s ghost, bound to the chariot, has quite a temper and insists that he be buried with vast amounts of riches. As the couple progresses, tunneling deeper and deeper underground, they’ll have to stray off the main path to get their hands on precious gems.
