Controls

• Mouse left click - Perform various functions

Levels

Levels are presented on a map that reveals physical landmarks as the player unlocks them. Per area, there are typically two playable levels. A banner on the right side of the screen indicates the player's mission which must be completed to make progress in the game.

Different areas have certain icons hovering over their markers. A brown skull indicates an enemy level, while a scroll indicates a reachable landmark. Areas on the map marked with no icon can only be moved to, but no action is elicited. The player's marker is indicated by a golden egg that bounces along the path as it moves along.

If the player is required to reach a certain area on the map but an enemy level is in between the two locations, the game will load the level that the player's marker crossed into. Upon quitting the level, the egg marker will be at the location the player clicked on.

Gameplay

In an enemy stage, the player's knights stand on the left side of the field while the enemies gather on the right. The player is able to see each knight and enemy's health and speed at the bottom of the screen. The goal of an enemy stage is to deplete all the enemies' health.

To attack the enemy, the player must wait for a knight's speed to reach its full length, of which they can click on the knight to initiate an attack. Additionally, players can set Arcana prior to the battle, which can aid the player once it is fully cooled down. When a battle is won, all knights and the player gain a certain amount of EXP as well as various items.

Ending

This navigational box contains a spoiler. Click [show] to open.

Kiev stands in front of a pedestal on a cliff, with the other Egg Knights in front of him. The Egg Knights try to hold back tears as they say their goodbyes. Kiev leaves and is teleported back to his own world, lying next to the stone that began his journey. His sister Elza enters kicking a soccer ball and Kiev greets her as though he has been gone for a long time, which she comments on. He takes the ball and she tells him that she will stay behind for a bit. Elza then walks up to the stone, and the camera pans upwards, scrolling the credits.

Knights

The player uses knights to help defeat the Dark Army. Most knights are hatched from eggs, and are acquired as the player progresses in the games. Each knight has their own special ability, and the player can also choose from one of three talents immediately after hatching their knight, except for Miner Knight, whose first talent must be "Loyalty".

All knights are viewable from the Knights section to the right of the map. This lets the player view all the knights they currently have, and also allows them to equip knights with items or feed them to gain knight EXP.
