Knight Lancer: Simple Jousting Game for Unseating Opponents

Nov 24,2024 Author: Joseph

Knight Lancer is a game of medieval jousting, with all the violence that implies
Use physics-based mechanics to unseat your opponent in a ragdoll mess
Play through 18 levels and an endless freeplay mode!

Ah, the medieval era. The Black Plague, religious intolerance and a short life expectancy. Yes, it wasn't the best time to be alive, but they sure knew how to party. But it wasn't pro wrestling or football that they enjoyed, it was jousting. And now you can live out your bone-breaking fantasies with Knight Lancer.
Put simply, Knight Lancer is a physics-based jousting game where your objective is to unseat your opponent from their horse and send them flying.
Since your lance shatters on impact, you need to not only keep it on target as you careen towards your opponent, but also time the angle and impact right so that as your lance shatters into three pieces it hits the opponent each time, scoring an instant win.

Knight Lancer features 18-story missions and an endless free-play mode. The recent update also incorporates a new mechanic: shield positioning, adding strategic depth to what initially seems like mindless combat.

Have at thee!
Knight Lancer is a superb example of how simple, direct, and enjoyable games abound on mobile. This isn't a gacha or ARPG, but a fantastic physics-based fighter reminiscent of games like Nidhogg.

You can download Knight Lancer now on iOS; unfortunately, there's no word on a Google Play release, but we remain hopeful!
