✦ AI summary

Horned Knight is a retro-inspired action platformer that players praise for its tight controls, smooth gameplay, and challenging stage design that successfully captures the spirit of classic arcade platformers. However, multiple players report a significant bug at level 26 on hard mode where characters freeze red after dying at checkpoints, which severely impacts progression and mars an otherwise enjoyable experience. Most reviewers recommend it for fans of old-school platforming, though the bug issue and occasional repetitive music are notable concerns that potential buyers should consider.

Awesome little action platformer that you can 100% by the end of the first world!

Horned Knight is a retro-inspired side-scrolling action platformer developed by Josep Monzonis Hernandez and published by 2Awesome Studio. Built with a clear love for classic arcade-era platformers, the game focuses on tight movement, straightforward combat, and challenging stage design rather than elaborate narrative or modern mechanics. Players step into the armored boots of a lone knight who ventures deep into a cursed castle filled with traps, monsters, and powerful bosses. The story itself is intentionally simple, echoing the design philosophy of older platforming games where the emphasis lies in the gameplay challenge rather than storytelling. The knight’s quest is to fight through dangerous environments and defeat the forces that threaten the realm, creating a classic fantasy setup that supports the action without distracting from it. The gameplay centers on traditional platforming mechanics mixed with quick sword-based combat. Armed with a blade and basic mobility abilities, the knight must traverse dangerous levels while eliminating enemies and avoiding environmental hazards. Enemy encounters typically involve skeleton warriors, serpents, and other hostile creatures that …

starting off by saying i truly enjoyed playing up to the point of the issue, as mentioned in another review lvl 26 on hard mode is bugged. when you die you respawn red like you just took a hit and are unable to move after, happens on all the checkpoints. we have tried everything to resolve to no success. i would love to complete the game and change my review if this ever gets fixed as it really is a great platformer aside from this issue.

I bought this because it was on offer for me and my friend for the lols I've also played this on Playstation and it is a good game but on both our games, when we die on lvl 26 the guy turns red and just freezes on the check point. Tried reinstalling etc but nothing seemed to fix it... waste of £0.81 Haha fix this and I'll change it to positive

5/10 This game is neither bad nor outstanding, I think it does what it sets out to do. Dungeon platformer in pixel art style, its easy at times and a challenge at others…though the ability to always retry is more than fair. An achievement of any kind would be nice for completing the levels as “perfect”, but its not a huge deal. As an entry into game making, Id say the creator did a great job and I hope it’s fuelled a fire to create more. I would recommend it to fans of oldschool gaming with an open mind, would not to anyone else.

This game is so much fun!Challenging but rewarding and very addictive. Im not a great plataformer player yet I Just stopped to make this review.
