  • Beat 'em up
  • Local co-op
  • Humour

Four knights brawl their way across an absurd kingdom to rescue the princesses. A cartoon beat 'em up with RPG touches, weapons and pets to collect, designed for up to four people on the same sofa or online.

Why play it now

When you have friends with you and want instant laughs without explaining anything: it makes sense in seconds.

Who it's for

For groups and couples looking for a light-hearted co-op, and fans of classic beat 'em ups.

When not to pick it

If you play alone: it works, but loses much of its charm without company.

What it offers

  • Combat / action: 85 out of 100
  • Relaxing: 35 out of 100
  • Competing: 30 out of 100
