Storyline
Based on the animated series Trollhunters: Tales of Arcadia, Defenders of Arcadia is a side-scrolling action-platformer that returns to the world of the ordinary teenager turned unlikely hero, Jim Lake Jr. Chosen to wield a legendary amulet and stand as the Trollhunter, protector of both humans and the hidden world of trolls, Jim once again finds his town of Arcadia threatened by a looming catastrophe.
