A pocket-sized knight slices boulders that match his boss's element
Blade Radiant is a free swipe-combat game for Android where a chibi knight cuts thrown rocks into two glowing halves.

The knight in these screenshots is barely a third the height of the golem he is fighting, and he still looks like the one in charge.
