About the Game

As the Blade Knight, it is your destiny to conquer the great tower and dethrone the old god that rules above. You'll have to fight through many monsters, such as skeletons, green blobs, and... other generic, fantasy creatures. Master the fast-paced, real-time combat that has you dodging attacks and managing your stamina bar. Really ground-breaking stuff here. And don't forget to attack. You can hold up to three weapons, each with their own stats and timings, but they do break, so you'll have to replace them as you make your way through each dungeon floor. There are plenty of bosses too, so that's cool.

Game Includes:

  • 50 Weapons!

  • 5 Mini-Bosses!

  • 11 Bosses!

  • 6 Playable Characters!
