Game Description: In the far kingdom of Gastronomia there live 3 brave knights that live to protect the crown against any malicious invader. One day the king sends them on the most dangerous quest yet, to slay all the Food Monsters that are terrifying the kingdom and the kingdom’s allies. All the monsters are food theme in some way and as you progress the monsters turn from breakfast monsters to lunch monsters to finally dinner monsters.
How the game plays out is that you control all 3 knights at the same time to move and jump and such but control the attacking patterns of one at the time and you can switch knights when you want. Spoon Knight is the heavy tank of the group that has a lot of health but attacks slowly, Knife Knight is the fastest with his quick slashes and incredibly area mobility that makes up for his low health, and finally Fork Knight is the ranged attacker with medium health that uses his giant fork weapon as a magical staff and when he needs to he can also throw it like a javelin. With a control pad, you can use the D-Pad to switch between knights as you map each button to a different map making switching quick and easy. You move around with the stick but the camera is locked. In the buttons there is a jump button, a dodge button and the remaining two are used for light and heavy attacks. The right back button and trigger are for special moves. The left button and trigger buttons are used for each of the other two allies to come in and either does an allied attack or take damage to you when you know you are going to get hit. Using the three knights in combinations help exploit weaknesses in different monsters and create unique creative ways to engage the enemy.
