Although the appearance might suggest that you’ll be dealing with puzzles involving knight chess pieces, the game is actually very simple and revolves around just one core mechanic. Your task is to place a single knight anywhere on the board and visit all the squares in the fewest moves possible. This is not particularly difficult because you can move the knight to squares you’ve already visited, making it easier to reach the remaining ones. Additionally, while the move limit is set to 96, this is more than enough to cover all 64 squares on the chessboard. Since you will likely complete a game on your first try, and because there’s a real risk of boredom afterward, the game adds an extra layer of challenge through achievements. Each achievement provides a clear goal. For example, you might be asked to cover only the tiles on the bottom half of the chessboard without crossing into the upper half, cover the left side without moving to the right, or cover a specific corner. Some achievements include an additional description. By earning all achievements with this extra description, you unlock a new type of knight. The first is the Fire Knight. Completing fire-related achievements (again, only those with an extra description) unlocks the Water Knight. Both knights alter gameplay slightly, though the difference is minor, especially with the Water Knight, which behaves almost identically to the standard knight, except it can only jump onto new tiles. Essentially, the Water Knight represents the standard way of playing the game. The Fire Knight, however, adds a more interesting twist. Like the Water Knight, it can only jump onto new tiles, but it also allows you to “capture” tiles without jumping on them. For example, if your next move offers two available tiles, you can mark one and jump to the other, effectively visiting two tiles with a single move. However, the game still ends when you run out of moves, so you must plan carefully to avoid trapping yourself.
