How it feels

A frenetic top-down shooter where you mow down waves of monsters as a lone knight, with escalating difficulty and a heroic, retro arcade feel.

What players say

Players describe it as a simplistic arcade shooter with very little content -- the campaign is over in about 15 minutes and there is no story. Many find the game boring, repetitive, and frustrating, with poor sound design and no save feature. A few players note the classical music is a highlight, but even they agree the game lacks depth and becomes a grind in survival mode.
