Knight Trail

Knight Trail is a simplified retro JRPG about Sir Knick, a knight trying to save the kingdom of Faraway without succumbing to general incompetence. You explore a vast world, keep track of your stats and supplies, and make choices in text-based events. Your decisions determine whether you survive or die.

Sir Knick’s quest

Sir Knick has spent his days helping the people of Faraway: finding lost cats, chasing away rodents and banishing lost souls. After overhearing traveling merchants, he learns that his brother has been cursed by an evil Warlock and transformed into a raging dragon. Sir Knick must defeat the Warlock and lift the curse before his brother sets the kingdom ablaze.

Explore and prepare

You can explore the world as you choose, but encounters can put you at risk. The Warlock is said to be killable only with the blade they carried as a mortal, which must still be in one of their four castles. You need to prepare before entering the Warlock’s lair, while managing your stats and supplies along the way.
