About Knight of the Hamsters

Knight of the Hamsters is a survival platformer pitting the brave knights of the Carrot Kingdom against the hamster horde.

During the day, hamsters come to steal the King's carrots. The knight must prevent the carrots from being carried off or be defeated. When the dark of night falls and the blood moons rises a foul curse transforms the hamsters into bloodthirsty demons. To battle the growing menace, the knight can upgrade his weapons and armor or pay to open treasure chests filled with vitality and elixirs.

Features:
  • Challenging and fun locations to explore
  • Unlock unique knights, each with their power set of skills.
  • Explore the vast kingdom of the Carrot Kingdom
  • Purchase weapon upgrades to fight the ever increasing hamster horde.
  • Kids-mode (no gore/always win)
  • Play co-op with a friend

Deluxe Edition includes:
Knight of the Hamsters Soundtrack.

✦ AI summary

Knight of the Hamsters suffers from severe technical and design issues that frustrate most players, particularly poor PC controls documentation, a clunky UI system, lack of in-game options menus, and tutorial problems that can leave players stuck. While one reviewer found it enjoyable as a simple co-op beat-em-up at a very low price point, the overwhelming consensus is that the game is poorly optimized for PC and not worth purchasing at standard prices, with players recommending it only as a deep discount impulse buy for co-op enthusiasts.

[h1] Hamster Abuse [/h1] Its true, at first this seems like senseless violence against hamsters. However, the game exposes the struggle that hamsters face in the real world. The unjust imprisonment of hamsters by humans is the real evil here. Hamsters should not be caged playthings for amusement. Caged hamsters become deranged and zombie like as the game depicts. We must stop this evil before its too late! Before the Knight of the Hamsters comes to the real world!

I feel sorry for my friend who bought this game for me, because this game seems to be a piece of ♥♥♥♥. List of big problems, even the most basic of games dont have, but THIS DOES! -No options menu during the game, so there is no way to change or view your controls. and since al the actions are labeled with the PoS xCrap console controller symbols, you will spend an infuriating time figuring out what is what(i never found out what the ♥♥♥♥ RB is when your using mouse and keyboard, mouse right it aint for sure xD) so yeah, when you get stuck into the training already because of this, it is promising as ♥♥♥♥! -The UI where you have to walk with the knight on what action you want to take, is clunky as hell. -There is no actual exit choice, not atleast a clear one, you can keep hitting Escape and search for various methods of leaving the game, but there isnt, apart from crashing it by force... all in all, the cute graphics, simple game play and mediocre music, do not fix the brain cancer you get from dealing with this games UI. final verdict; Nothing outstanding. 5/10 but an ok time waster...

Complete waste of money. No tutorial for PC, not PC friendly (only tells you how to play using a controller), does not tell you how to use some abilities in game. Overall it is poorly made and should not be on steam.

Absolutely terrible start to this promising platformer. Unable to progress through the Tutorial - no active control for player, who ends up stuck in an endless loop. So many potentially fun games blow it with crappy interfaces.

a very simplistic dumbed down retro beat em up. Very good co op game reminescent of the early mario smash bros game. i got this for 79p and for that its definately worth it. A MUST BUY if your into coop arena beatemups.

The Planet Coaster DLC catalogue closed in 2019, so there is no curve left to wait out. Our record shows the collection bundle costs far more than assembling the same packs one by one.
