Should you play it?

Knight Squad is an insane 1 to 8 players chaotic arena friendship destroyer. Take on current friends and future frenemies in any of the incredibly fun game modes, ranging from Last Man Standing to Medieval soccer. All of that using only weapons from the Middle Ages… and laser guns… and miniguns.

What works

  • Excellent local multiplayer for up to 8 players
  • Variety of fun and original game modes
  • Simple controls accessible to all skill levels
  • Frequent content updates during early access

Things to keep in mind

  • Online multiplayer community is very small or inactive
  • Limited map variety and no map editor
  • Ai bots can be inconsistent in difficulty
  • Minimal character customization and no story

  • Purple star: this page’s game at the centre — everything is relative to it.
  • Direction: each axis is a main motivational difference vs this game (e.g. more / less competitive).
  • Distance on an axis: how large that difference is (ring scales show +/− points).
  • Coloured chips: click to highlight games that mainly differ on that motivation; click again to reset.
  • Dotted line: link between this page’s game and the one selected for comparison.
