8 Tiny Video Game Enemies That OBLITERATED You

They say that sometimes big things come in small packages, and while of course this naturally refers to the ability to stuff a footlong subway sandwich into your Street Sharks-themed lunchbox, when it comes to video games it can imply that there's a powerhouse character of smaller stature that should never, ever be underestimated.

Take Little Mac for example, who while being a good couple of feet shorter than his opponents routinely lifts them off their own with his powerful uppercuts or Clank who will bamboozle opponents far larger than himself with his cunning and gadgets.

But what of the other side of the coin? What about those enemies who were huge pains in the ass despite only being tall enough to bite your kneecaps?

Well, let's shed some light on these little bastards today and find out which video game enemies who likely couldn't pass a rollercoaster safety check, but cast a huge shadow over the players enjoyment.

*Pained groans*

*Screams into a pillow*

These enemies man, these goddam Imps. Seriously even though there are far tougher enemies in Elden Ring even in the opening sections of Limgrave, the Imps found within the Catacombs and Dungeons of this outstanding title were, and sometimes still are, the bane of my existence.

They're just that perfect storm of awful, in that they're able to dish out punishment from afar with projectiles and up close with a flurry of attacks sure to take new players by surprise. And speaking of surprises, hope you liked having these little bastards drop down behind you from their hiding spots and being stabbed right betwixt thy cheeks because that's going to happen a lot.

Now to be fair the Imps don't have all too much health so once you've baited their attacks they're crumpling like a house of cards on an active fault line, but the amount of times I'd see a blade come through my chest and mutter "now that wasn't there before" were too many to count, and in greater numbers these cheeky imps will send you for your dinner quick sharp.

For the record, the dinner is a pain sandwich with a side of "git gud" relish. Delicious.
