The gameplay of the game is characterized as a fun action platformer with appealing graphics, but it suffers from a mediocre side-scrolling dash and slash mechanic, along with a somewhat clunky counter system. Players can choose between two modes, with one offering a casual experience and the other presenting a significant challenge. Overall, while some mechanics are enjoyable, the gameplay does not fully deliver on its potential, especially when compared to "souls-like" expectations.
- “Really cool action platformer, nice graphics, fun gameplay and works really well on deck.”
- “There are two gameplay modes: Lancelot (the main story) with a casual and normal difficulty and Galahad, which is a massive difficulty spike and a sort of iron man mode.”
- “Fallen Knight has a great art style, and I love the mechanics that were copied from other games.”
- “While the visuals are quite nice, the gameplay is actually mediocre side scrolling dash n' slash with a somewhat janky counter system and absolutely nothing about it could be reasonably considered 'souls like', which might be more reasonable given that this seems like a port of a mobile game.”
- “There are two gameplay modes: Lancelot (the main story) with casual and normal difficulty, and Galahad, which is a massive difficulty spike and a sort of iron man mode.”
