Malachi's World: Forces of World

***Malachi's World: Forces of World*** is a 2018 platform video game developed and published by Ubisoft for PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, and Microsoft Windows. It is a *Malachi's World* game that follows Malachi and Nilha, a spirit that helps Malachi and allows him to possess other characters and objects, as they journey across various worlds to collect the lost spirit and save Petunia from Cabel and Whalestook's former boss Sharptooth, who plans to forcibly marry her, and take back Hollyland and Labtoons City after Cabel's empire took over 99% of it with the help of the *Malachi Universal* villains from the past, the Power Red Star and a mysterious new villain known as Maxtia. The game also features a vocal theme song, "Super Duper Amazing", a first for the *Malachi's World* series. The storyline of the game also ties with *Malachi: The Ultimate Time!*.

 Gameplay

The gameplay for the game is based off *Super Mario Odyssey* and *Sonic Forces*. In this game, Malachi now has a ability to capture characters and play as them. He can also uses Nilha to bounce on, making Jeremy even hop to platforms he would unable to jump on his own. He also uses her to grappling hook, turns an enemy into a cube, locks on to multiple enemies, blows away enemies, sucks in enemies, and attack with fire, whip of lightning, and drill.

Collectables include Malachi Coins (of course, to follow the Malachi's Worlds tradition, they return), but now they serve as currencies. New currencies include souvenirs (like Malachi Coins, but are lavender).

You collect Power Medals, which are required to access new levels. There are 45 power medals (15 power medals required to defeat the boss) in every world (including DLC), which brings in the total of 540 power medals (base content) and TBD medals (with DLC).

## Plot

Fueled by her years-long hatred of Malachi, Cabel prepares to take yet another shot at expanding her empire across Hub City and Toon Town by working on an "invincible instrument of destruction" within the confines of her laboratory. When everything is ready, she launches a large scale offensive on an urban center with her army and robots. As things get desperate for the survivors and all hope seems lost. Meanwhile, Malachi and Sharptooth are seen fighting one another on Sharptooth's airship, with Petunia on board as well. As Jeremy charges at Sharptooth, Cabel summons her allies, who block Malachi from reaching Sharptooth. To her surprise, Malachi sees that Cabel's allies are none other than Tiana, Lola Chase, Maximum Tipe Nixie, Nerio, Krazy Klown, Paisley and Ryde. Among the familiar faces is also a newcomer: an enigmatic and powerful female being named Starina, who acts as Cabel's right-hand woman and the leader of the Cabel's army. Malachi tries to fight them, but is overwhelmed and easily thrashed by Starina's mysterious power. Starina and her allies ultimately defeats Malachi when Sharptooth uses his top hat to attack, sending Starina flying to parts unknown. Starina then takes his airship towards the skies.
