"Cramming eight people around the television set in my living room for a night of gaming seems like the worst idea of all time. For one, I’ve only got enough couch space for about four-and-a-half people, so an unlucky few would be regulated to the floor. I guess they could ask my beast of a dog to share her floor pillow, but she’s a drooler and a licker. That’s bad, though most of my sympathies would lie with the poor sucker who has to wedge himself in the fireplace. But you know what, having a full complement of players for Knight Squad might make it worth it."

Players take to the arena was one of several colored Knights with the objective of capturing a chalice placed within."
If you don’t mind playing against bots or have friends to play with, Knight Squad is a solid buy and worth picking up in its PC or console format. It’s best enjoyed with friends, but the bots on medium difficulty kept us on our toes.
Just finished the challenges, they were pretty hard. Great local game, support for upo to 8 players on one console is great too!

Knight Squad is a game that surprised me and I hope that others can get as much enjoyment out of the game as I did. Grab a Knight, enter the battlefield, and fight for glory one match at a time"
