The Plucky Squire is not a game for those who want a massive-scale game filled with side quests, secret unlockable weapons, and multiple endings, as it's a very straightforward and linear game; a style that it handles incredibly well. Players will be delighted by the articulate narration that will guide them from page to page, and different parts of the game are separated through different chapters.

However, the time to beat the game does fluctuate depending on the goal of the player. Some players will want to breeze through the game, some will explore every inch of the map, and others may find themselves struggling in a minigame for far longer than they’d like to admit — but feel a large sense of accomplishment after.

How Long to Beat The Plucky Squire

How Long Does It Take To Beat The Plucky Squire

Games come in a wide array of complexities, and some can take hundreds of hours to accomplish everything they have to offer. However, The Plucky Squire is a linear game with a narrated story. While there are some hidden paths and collectibles, players going through the story will only find it takes them about 7 hours to reach the credits. Those who explore every corner and take in the world will see this increase closer to 8 hours. Lastly, players who have trouble with puzzles and boss fight mini-games can expect this to add even more time to the game.

Achievement/Trophy Hunting

For players who plan on doing everything the game has to offer and getting their hands on every achievement/trophy, this timeframe can jump up. Having a guide for getting all the achievements/trophies in the game can bump this up by another hour. However, those that complete the game without collecting everything may need to replay the entire game again.
