Bosses are brilliant, they're some of the biggest, baddest and most brilliant bits in videogames as we know them, but not all bosses are made equal.

That's because some developers have worked out the magic formula for making a really great boss, and the devs of Furi are the latest ones to do it. The Architect has spent far too much time dying to these bosses to not make a video about it, so remember to take notes.
