Knightshift (Once Upon a Knight in the US) is a game in line with Roberta William’s Kingsquest series. The game should be taken a strong dose of groaning humor. The pun in the title should let the viewer know that this won’t be the typical “hack and slash” that you would expect from a series like Diablo. It attempts to combine elements of both RTS and RPG play in a single game. Warcraft III went for strong RPG with a dash of RTS, and Knightshift goes the opposite way, with mostly RTS play with RPG elements. But that really doesn’t do the game justice as it is really three games in one. You can chose from Campaigns, Role Playing, and Skirmishes, each of which has a different mixture of RPG and RTS.
