Grasshopper Manufacture’s Black Knight Sword will be on sale April 16-23 for the suggested price point of 400 Microsoft Points on Xbox LIVE Arcade for the Xbox 360, 50 percent off its release price.
Co-published by D3Publisher and Digital Reality, Black Knight Sword explores a bizarre world that pits players in the role of The Black Knight as he attempts to rid the world of the villainous and super evil Dark Princess. With a strange spin on a classic fairytale, Black Knight Sword blends traditional side-scrolling action with an unprecedented visual style.
A throwback to the 16-bit era, Black Knight Sword has simple, yet addictive gameplay within a stylized hand-drawn puppet theater world. As an intriguing “Interactive Kamishibia” (paper drama), Black Knight Sword unfolds similar to a virtual pop-up book filled with memorable creatures to encounter and addictive challenges to overcome.
