Imagine a platform game. What do you see? Lots of jumping, a fair amount of running and a good dose of exploring? Well, if that’s the case then Knytt falls directly into that category.
Beginning with a silent cut scene explaining how
Knytt was abducted and subsequently crash landed on a planet, you are given the task of finding the pieces of the ship which broke off. Using its ability to run, jump, and scale walls,
Knytt traverses the lands far and wide in search of said pieces.
And what a fair land it is. From the beginning you’ll see what a glorious game this is, graphically speaking, it’s one of the finest freeware experiences you’ll encounter. Each screen is a marvel in design, control and sheer “wow” factor.
Although the game is marginally short on depth, it’s not a game which relies on heavy graphics, CPU usage or real-time anything. It’s a marvellously enjoyable experience and should be treated as such – an experience. And what’s more, its one which should be experienced as soon as possible.
