Take on the role of a Disk Knight in a cyber meets medieval world filled with quirky citizens. The kingdom calls on you to slay its King, driven mad by power and years of isolation. But as you carve your way toward the castle, strange glitches suggest something deeper is at play…
KEY FEATURES:
- Explore a retro, cyber-meets-medieval world that needs your help to survive
- Cleverly match tiles in a real-time, grid-based, dance-like battle
- Unlock new items, weapons and playable characters as you progress on your quest to topple the king
- Match tiles, charge your weapons and don’t get hit for maximum impact (and maximum flowstate potential)
- Easy to pick up, but a true challenge to master
- Floppy-disk based weaponry, of course
Chivalware is not just a homage to one of gaming’s most beloved tactical adventures, but aims to evolve the genre with fresh new gameplay twists that will keep even veteran strategists with the sharpest reflexes on their toes.
