"The first thing that strikes you about The Knightling is the vibrance of the action-adventure RPG's art style. There's just so much colour in this indie game's charming open world. The next thing you notice is a curious twist. You play the character of an aspiring knight, but you have no sword; only a shield. The intriguing game is the work of Twirlbound, which previously developed Pine."
"The Knightling sees you play as a knight in training who must search for his missing mentor, Sir Lionstone. Equipped with only with Sir Lionstone's shield, you have to venture through different environments in a world called Clesseia, solving platform puzzles and fighting bandits and monsters to uncover the truth of the shield's power. Matthijs says the aim was to blend an open-world action-adventure design with a nimble, platforming character."
