''Kingsley's Adventure'' is a cutesy platformer developed and released by Creator/{{Psygnosis}} for the PlayStation in 1999. Its plot centers around Kingsley, a vulpine "[[KnightInShiningArmor Apprentice True Knight]]" adopted by a [[RoyalBlood royal pair of rabbits]] who sets out to protect the Fruit Kingdom from [[BigBad Bad Custard]] and retrieve the Queen's stolen book of magics. On his quest, Kingsley finds himself having to free several fellow True Knights [[BrainwashedAndCrazy from Bad Custard's thrall]].
Essentially a colorful platformer that [[XMeetsY plays a bit like]] ''Franchise/CrashBandicoot'' and a third-person ''Franchise/TheLegendOfZelda''. It's garnered a relatively modest cult following for its endearing characters and settings.

!!This game contains examples of:
* OneUp: Gathering 50 coins nets Kingsley a 1-up.
* BigBad: Bad Custard is an [[YouDirtyRat overgrown rodent]] disguised as a chef at Carrot Castle. He stole Queen Angelica's book of magic and used his dark wizardry to corrupt the Fruit Kingdom's champions into mindless servants in a pretty standard bid to [[TakeOverTheWorld dominate the lands]].
* CannotTellAJoke: Lenny, the resident jester, is terrible with jokes. Indeed, Lenny admits he only does juggling.
* ConvenientlyAnOrphan: Kingsley is just stated to be an orphan. Never is it mentioned where his real parents are or what fate they met. [[WildMassGuessing Though given what Bad Custard is doing to the Fruit Kingdom]], [[FridgeHorror one might not want to think about it too much...]]
* CrapsackWorld: Poorluck Village. It's always raining and the houses look pretty rundown.
* FrothyMugsOfWater: There's an abbey with monks who concern themselves with brewing root-beer. Even the level music uses sounds of spoons hitting bottles and bottle-blowing. Make of that what you will.
* FurryFandom: Definitely earned a place, but being the obscure gem it is, it's not talked about much except among its cult following.
* HeartsAreHealth / HeartContainer: Kingsley can find big Hearts in chests to restore his health.
* KnightInShiningArmor: Guess who.
* LockAndKeyPuzzle
* PintsizedPowerhouse: Don't let his adorable stature fool you, Kingsley bravely takes out enemies four times his own height and mass.
* ReasonableAuthorityFigure: King Marius and Queen Angelica are pretty enlightened rulers, being Kingsley's adoptive parents.
* RetiredBadass: Old Wrinkle might qualify, as Kingsley is asked to see him for his knightly training.
* SuperDrowningSkills: Any bodies of water deeper than Kingsley's shins send him warping back to the spot he walked from with reduced health.
* SpeakingSimlish: Everyone just makes cute noises whenever dialogue occurs.
* TankControls: Crosses into FakeDifficulty as it makes things a bit challenging when trying to position yourself to attack enemies and block their attacks in return. Especially when dealing with [[ThatOneLevel the slippery parts of the platforming sections]].
* WarpZone: Foxholes (which look more like brick pipes dug down into the ground) are used in the castle basement and courtyard to warp to each of the worlds.
