Kill Knight... Mini-Review!

Kill Knight is a challenging top-down twin-stick shooter where players hunt down the Last Angel across five intense levels filled with enemies and hazards. The game features a ranking and leaderboard system that fuels the replay value.

Kill Knight was condemned to eternal sufferance, deep within the voids of an... eldritch arena where you're forced to obliterate swarms of monsters and master the demon within.

While Kill Knight offers intense combat, it can be frustrating due to its difficulty. Visually this game is too dark for my tastes. It's not just dark for me, it's a little dull in the color scheme department is what I mean. The game’s fun factor may decrease over time, but the replay value is maintained somewhat through the leaderboard system. Timing the reload with so much going on can be challenging and may detract from the overall experience too, and... the music was missing that flare to complement action. Heavy metal should've been the soundtrack from beginning to end! Talk about a missed opportunity.

Pricewise, for fans of dark, top-down arcade bullet hell games, the price of $14.99 is reasonable. Precision is rewarded, you get access to a nice selection of pistols, swords, heavy weapons + armor. If you like to dominate leaderboards, this game is bound to put you and your aim... to the test.
