  • story45 mentions

    The story in "Last Knight" is generally considered weak and not central to the gameplay, serving primarily as a comedic backdrop to the action. While players can engage with a story mode that offers different perspectives and quests, many find the humor unfunny and the narrative uninspired, leading to a repetitive experience. However, the game compensates with various modes, unlockables, and challenges that keep players entertained beyond the story itself.

    • “The game has beautiful artwork style, outstanding graphics, interactive story, great gameplay, unlockables, customizations, secrets, achievements, trading cards, stats, controller support, and it also works beautifully on a keyboard and mouse, so it's got everything.”
    • “The story mode only took me about two hours to get through, but it had some amusing points to it even though it's your normal save the kingdom type of line.”
    • “The game features a humor-filled story, an endless mode, and a new 'rogue rider' mode, unlockables (characters, skills, upgrades), character customization, quests, oh and did I mention hats!?”
    • “On the downside, it doesn't have much depth and it's kind of recycling itself; the story is boring, uninspired, and even kitschy at some moments.”
    • “The story menu and interruptions are annoying.”
    • “The story mode only took me about two hours to get through, but it had some amusing points to it even though it's your normal save-the-kingdom type of storyline.”
  • graphics44 mentions

    The graphics of the game receive mixed reviews, with many players appreciating the vibrant art style and polished visuals, particularly in character design and environmental details. However, some users note issues with performance, such as lag on mid-level devices, and criticize certain models as unattractive. Overall, while the graphics are generally considered appealing and well-executed, they are sometimes overshadowed by gameplay concerns and technical problems.

    • “The graphics are the best in the runner genre.”
    • “I absolutely love the jousting platformer concept and I think the vibrant cartoonish graphics were a great stylistic choice that suit the game very well.”
    • “Fantastic visuals are the first to sell this idea, with noticeably higher production values than you see in most games of the genre, with tons of color and visual effects making for an impressive display that really makes you feel they're onto something.”
    • “Basically, the idea behind them is pretty stupid: they are supposed to be a hard version of whatever world you're currently in, but the entire difficulty stems from the game intentionally messing with the visuals in a 'oh god I'm high as heck' kind of way, which is a really cheap and unfair way of making a game more difficult.”
    • “Trashy graphics and ultimately boring overall...”
    • “Tried the rogue rider mode and with all the graphics down I think there were maybe 4 triangles on the map selection screen, which wiggled wildly, and even then it still barely ran.”
  • gameplay32 mentions

    The gameplay is characterized by its simplicity and challenge, requiring players to navigate obstacles with basic controls while offering various modes and customization options. While the jousting mechanic adds fun and the collisions are precise, many reviewers note that the gameplay can feel repetitive and lacks depth, especially on PC. Overall, it is seen as a casual experience suitable for mobile play, but may not satisfy more seasoned gamers looking for complexity.

    • “The gameplay is simple yet challenging; move left or right to avoid objects, one button to jump and one button to use your lance to hit enemies.”
    • “The jousting mechanic is extremely fun and is a major reason you'll keep coming back.”
    • “This game has beautiful artwork style, outstanding graphics, interactive story, great gameplay, unlockables, customizations, secrets, achievements, trading cards, stats, controller support, and it also works beautifully on a keyboard and mouse, so it's got everything.”
    • “The camera gets in the way of the gameplay sometimes.”
    • “The gameplay quickly wears thin, and I often feel like I'm not the one at fault when something bad happens.”
    • “It's impressive visuals can only do so much to hide the dull and forgettable gameplay underneath, making me wonder why I wasn't playing any number of other games instead.”
  • humor23 mentions

    The humor in the game is a mixed bag, with some players finding it charming and funny, particularly appreciating the crude jokes, ragdoll physics, and whimsical animations. However, others criticize it as overly silly or juvenile, with some jokes falling flat or feeling obnoxious.

    • “However, what I didn't expect was the glorious amount of modes, crude humor, and amazing little bits of hidden jokes here and there, including load screens.”
    • “The physics in the game provide lots of hilarious screenshots, especially the slow-motion death scenes, which are abundant and cool looking (both yours and the deaths of your enemies).”
    • “Fantastic little game that develops a simple idea with a surprisingly good result: it's funny, addictive, challenging, with a sense of humor, good sounds and graphics, different game modes, rogue-like endless runs, customizable heroes, crazy quests, etc.”
    • “The story is incredibly unfunny.”
    • “The humor falls flat and feels forced.”
    • “I expected more laughs, but the jokes just didn't land.”
  • music18 mentions

While the soundtrack is enjoyable, some players find it repetitive, particularly during cutscenes, and consider it secondary to the game's narrative and visuals.

    • “The music of the game is a very uplifting, medieval-themed soundtrack that will have you getting into the game as you dodge the obstacles, take out the enemies, and collect the rewards.”

    • “There's a lot of poor mixing where the music and sound effects sound drowned out; they sometimes glitch out and have other issues like that.”
    • “The cutscenes between campaign stages change the music track that's playing roughly every 3 seconds, and it starts from the beginning each time.”
    • “Music is cliche, but it's okay because it's really secondary.”
  • grinding3 mentions

    Players find the grinding aspect of the game to be simple to start but quickly becomes tedious and frustrating, detracting from the overall experience.

    • “The game is very simple to pick up and just jump in, but very quickly you notice how tedious it really is.”
    • “It gets tedious incredibly fast.”
    • “Though it is not quite as polished as the promotional videos suggest, it gets quite tricky and frustrating at times and a little tedious after a while.”
  • replayability3 mentions

Additionally, the endless mode and ongoing rogue mode contribute significantly to its replay value, keeping players engaged and entertained.

    • “The replayability is just fantastic! I haven't checked everything yet, but I am very impressed by the content I've seen so far.”
    • “I find this game really fun due to its replay value through the rogue rider mode, where every time you die, a new world generates.”

    • “The endless mode gives the game a lot of replayability, and there's also the in-progress rogue mode that helps with that as well.”
  • optimization3 mentions

    Overall, the game's optimization is a mixed bag; while it performs better than before, users still report issues, particularly on Mac systems, where performance remains subpar. Some players experience freezing and slow loading times, which may be exacerbated by older hardware.

    • “The gameplay is fun, but I still wouldn't recommend it to Mac users due to the amount of issues and poor performance on Mac.”
    • “I feel the game is still not 100% optimized. It could be that my laptop is just old, because when I minimize the game and bring it back up, it freezes for a few seconds and takes time to start sometimes. I'm not sure if this should be considered a con because of the game or because my laptop is getting old.”
    • “Luckily, the game itself managed somewhat better optimization than that, though it still didn't seem to run as well as it used to.”

However, some users still experience occasional freezing and minor bugs, which may be influenced by their hardware. While the game is generally enjoyable, it may not be fully optimized for all systems.

    • “I feel the game is still not 100% optimized. It could be that my laptop is just old, because when I minimize the game and bring it back up, it freezes for a few seconds and takes time to start sometimes.

    • “Still a few bugs/glitches (being hit when nothing is there).”
    • “There were some glitches and serious frame drops at the beginning which stopped me from playing this game at first.”
