Kill Knight

Kill Knight is an arena survival game - a project bordering between action games, roguelikes and bullet hell shooters. The game was created by the Australian developer PlaySide Studios - the authors of Age of Darkness: Final Stand.

Plot

The main character of Kill Knight is a warrior who, as a result of betrayal, ended up in the Abyss. In the guise of the Death Knight (corpse clad in animated armor) the protagonist makes his way through this gloomy land, trying to reach the Last Angel and behead him.

Mechanics

In Kill Knight we watch the action in an isometric view. During the game we traverse five vast layers of the Abyss, where we face hordes of enemies. We eliminate enemies by using both melee weapons, which allow us to engage in close combat, and pistols (equipped with various firing modes), thanks to which we can keep adversaries at a distance.

The fights are extremely dynamic, and the enemies outnumber us, so on the battlefield we have to be in constant motion, dodging and performing accurate attacks. As we progress, we accumulate valuable resources that we must skillfully manage. We can also face various challenges to unlock new, increasingly powerful equipment. All of this means that if we manage to stay alive long enough, we can turn our knight into an unstoppable killing machine.

Game modes

Kill Knight features only singleplayer gameplay. The leaderboards, which allow us to show off our results to the world, provide a semblance of competition with other players. There is a master mode here, in which all layers of the Abyss are combined into one gigantic arena. Additionally, we are given a choice of three difficulty levels, allowing us to adjust the game to individual preferences and skills.
