SAN JOSE, Calif., Sept 23, 2010 – Namco Networks, a leading publisher and developer of interactive content, today launched Knightfall: Death and Taxes on iPhone and PC. Developed by Megadev Games, both versions of the game are available now for a free trial.
In the newest iteration in the series, the gameplay stays true to the puzzle matching, role-playing (RPG) elements for which Knightfall is known. Five Game Modes are available to choose from including Story, Endless, Endless 2-player, Pet Protector and Boss Rush Mode. Through over 100 stages in Story Mode, the player maneuvers the characters around the board by rotating the entire play area and drilling away groups of blocks.
By vanquishing dozens of fearsome foes and new bosses to earn gold, players can purchase character upgrades and helpful items in the village shops. This is the first Knightfall title to include Princess, Knight’s wife, as a second playable character. Choosing either Knight or Princess allows for varied gameplay as they have widely different abilities and attacking styles.
“With the first two iterations of the series getting over 2 million plays on Flash,” said Carlson Choi, vice president of marketing at Namco, “we decided to make the addictive new chapter accessible to several million other people on their preferred connected devices.”
The full version can be purchased on iPhone (Every Honour – Bundle Pack) and PC for $4.99 and $6.99 respectively. The Story Mode is available for iPhone for $3.99, but does not include the four extra Game Modes
